Not sure if mechanical or other tech, but how do you hot start your FE550? I was caught out yesterday, stalled my Husa, quickly emptied the battery trying to restart electrically and then myself trying to kicking-start.
Only after a 30min cooldown could I get it to run.
I tried to mess with the hot start choke, throttle positions, etc., but frankly, I don't know what I am doing. It might be me, it might be the machine. So how do you start yours? Should it fire up immediately with no hot choke or throttle? That was what I was going for at first. Also, the battery drained pretty fast so I replaced it, but the new one also does not get many turns. how long should it last?
When cold it just fires up right away by the way.
Thanks in advance
