Hopefully your pony (starter) motor is an electric start. Be very careful on
one with a hand crank. A friend of mine almost broke his arm and was thrown
off the tractor when the crank kicked back.

In a nutshell: get the pony motor running good and engage the clutch to the
main engine. If the track has been sitting for a long time you probably need
to take a complete set of fuel system filters.
Good Luck
Randy
