Toxic engine exhaust gases can lead to loss of consciousness
and even death in closed-off and poorly ventilated rooms.
▪ Never operate the machine in closed-off or poorly ventilated
rooms.
▪ Do not breathe in the exhaust gases.
Safety notes
CAUTION
Danger of injury from defective crankhandle.
A damaged or broken handle bar can cause injuries. A worn
cranking shaft can slip out of the starting mechanism when starting and also cause injuries.
▪ Check the crankhandle for a broken handle bar, worn crank-
ing shaft, etc.; replace if necessary.
CAUTION
Danger of injury and danger of engine damage from the use
of starting fluid.
▪ Danger of injury during hand starting because the use of
starting fluid can result in uncontrolled ignitions.
▪ Engine damage from uncontrolled ignitions.
▪ Never use starting fluid.
7.5.1 Starting the engine with crankhandle
This chapter contains the following sections:
▪ Preparations for cranking the engine:
Adjust the continuous decompression.
▪ Crank the engine:
Crank the engine without compression (approx. 10-20 crank turns).
This lowers the resistance to rotation.
▪ Preparations for starting the engine:
Adjust the automatic decompression.
▪ Start the engine:
Cranking starts the cylinders one after the other and the decompression
is automatically canceled.

The distinguishing feature of the electrical automatic shutoff is brief flashing
of all indicators after turning the starting key to position "I".
If the engine switches off due to an electrical fault signal or due to insufficient
oil pressure with the aid of the automatic switch-off, an emergency start can
be attempted by the user. The user must bear responsibility for any resulting
damage.
This may be necessary if the vehicle stops at a critical location (railroad
crossing or intersection).
When a monitoring element of the automatic switch-off is activated, the corresponding indicator lights up. After shutting down the engine, the indicator
remains lit for approx. 2 minutes. The electrical equipment then switches off
automatically.
Safety notes
NOTICE
Note - If the engine stops again immediately after starting, or
stops independently during operation, this is an indication that a
monitoring element of the automatic shutoff has been activated
(see the chapter 9.1 Troubleshooting, page 93.
CAUTION
Danger when switching off the engine from the emergency
operation mode.
During the emergency operation mode, the engine can only be
switched off with the starting key if the emergency start lever is
first returned to its home position.

Overview
CAUTION
Danger of later engine damage.
The monitoring components (oil pressure, charge control and
engine temperature) are deactivated in emergency operation.
▪ The oil level must be checked before the emergency opera-
tion phase.
NOTICE
If the emergency operation mode is used, the risk transfers to
the operator (the Motorenfabrik HATZ does not accept liabili-ty in this case).
▪ Immediately after the emergency operation phase, deter-
mine the cause of the fault.
▪ Have the Hatz service station supply the emergency start
lever with a new lead seal.
