STARTING AND OPERATING ENGINE
CAUTION: Do not run engine in an enclosed area.
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, an odorless
and poisonous gas that can cause sickness or
death.
IMPORTANT: To prevent possible pump damage, do not
allow washer pump to run in bypass (with gun
trigger released) for longer than 3 minutes.
IMPORTANT: During rst two hours of engine operation,
engine may operate at low or erratic RPM as
the engine moving parts break in.
NOTE: AC-2000GH, AC-2400GH & AC-2400GS illustrated.
1. Set fuel valve lever (A) right to ON position. (Not applicable
on AC-2000GH / AC-2600GH.)
2. Move choke control lever (B) left to “CHOKE” position.
(AC-2000GH / AC-2600GH: Pull choke control lever (B)
out.)
NOTE: A warm engine requires less choking than a cold
engine.
3. Move throttle lever (C) to the left. (AC-2000GH / AC-

damage. Release trigger immediately upon engine
start.

briskly until engine starts.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow starter grip to snap back against
engine. Return it gently to prevent damage
to starter.

operate engine on a level surface. Do not
exceed a 15° slope or automatic low oil
switch will stop engine. (Not applicable on
