4. Pull the throttle cord on the Honda engine firmly to start the engine, and return gently |
5. Upon starting the engine, release the choke |
6. Leave the engine to warm up for one minute - you may need to leave the choke on for a little while until it is warmed up. |
7. Put ear defenders on |
8. Whilst the engine is warming up, prepare the ground and prepare the post. |
9. Lift the machine onto the post - if the post is too tall you can lay the machine horizontally, insert the post into the adapter whilst on the ground, and then lift the machine with post upright. |
10. Apply a downward force of 5-10kg and engage the throttle (Do not engage the throttle until a downward force is applied) |
11. Keep the downward force applied until the throttle is released. This allows the hammer to engage, and prevents dry firing. |
