STARTING AND STOPPING
Warm engine
Use the same starting procedure as for a cold engine but 
without setting the choke control in the choke position.
Start throttle: (FC2255, FC2255W, BC2255)
Set the throttle to the start position by moving the choke 
control to the choke position and then returning it to its original 
position.
Start throttle: (BC2255)
Set the throttle to the start position by first pressing the throttle 
lockout and the throttle trigger, then pressing the start throttle 
button (A). Then release the throttle lockout and the throttle 
trigger, followed by the start throttle button. The throttle 
function is now activated. To return the engine to idle, press 
the throttle lockout and throttle trigger again.

hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Grip the starter handle, 
slowly pull out the cord with your right hand until you feel 
some resistance (the starter pawls grip), now quickly and 
powerfully pull the cord. Never wrap the starter cord around 
your hand
Repeat pulling the cord until the engine starts. When the 
engine starts. return choke control to run position and apply 
full throttle; the throttle will automatically disengage from the 
start setting.

the choke in either the choke or start throttle
