During very warm weather, I find less choke is needed, but when it get's cold this is the factory starting proceedure. If it starts to die, just press the key in to provide shot of richer choke and release again.

I've had two of these motors - and confirmed starting proceedure with Evinrude Master tech at J&B, Westville, NJ - 50 years of family run Evinrude dealer / service .
I had already looked this up and you are dead on, and Thank you.
