strikemaster auger

[Jdrummer]

Well, yesterday I did a carb job on one of my strikemaster augers After I put it all back together  I figured i would start it . So I put the auger head (the drill assemly is on the perm house) on the city garbage can , push the de-compression valve and give it a pull. It almost starts so I choke it half way and hit the de-compression valve again . I pull and it almost starts. I figure ill just pull it really hard without the valve on because i have done it before on the ice right. Wrong , When I pulled the rope really hard the compression was to much and the head flips in my hand and smokes me right in the mouth with the other side of the composite handle!  I ended pushing one tooth back pretty far and split my lip wide open. Now I have 3 stitches in my lower ,fat lip!
