ELECTRIC START SYSTEM
Operation
If there is no continuity with the starter button
depressed, the switch box will need to be
removed and opened. Proceed to Disassembly.
The electric start system consists of a 120 (USA) or
220 (Europe) VAC motor, a momentary switch, a plug
terminal, and a connecting wire (Figure 56). A cord
from a household power supply is plugged into the
machine. When the starter button is depressed, current
is directed to the motor. When the engine starts,
release the starter button and unplug the extension
cord.

2.
Remove three screws holding the switch box to
the control panel support (Figure 58).
Troubleshooting
NOTE: At this point, the switch box can be
opened and the parts tested. It may not be
necessary to remove the starter motor. Proceed to
"Switch Box Repair" on page 5 - 3

4.
First check the electric outlet. An easy way to do
that is plug a light into that outlet.
Substitute a different extension cord or plug the
same light into the cord.
If the cord and outlet are supplying power, the
problem must be in the motor, wires, or switch.
A continuity tester or ohmmeter can be connected
to the terminals where you would normally plug in
the extension cord (Figure 57).
NOTE: For clarity, the switch box has been
removed and opened. Normally, this test would be
done with the machine fully assembled.
