Between 1975 and 1980 I owned both of the one cylinder models the 15-30 and the 18-35. It was the accepted way to start them was , put your right foot on the left rear wheel and left foot then on the spokes of the Big flywheel and "walk" the flywheel. I had started both of them this way, Then I heard a story about the 15-30 firing backwards and sent the starting man into the roof, I was told that he died as the results of him not retarding the spark so the engine would fire past TDC and not before TDC.

These one cylinder models did not have or never did have a lever to facilitate starting.
