Sorry Nick, now I'm really confused.
Peter says he "pulls or holds" the trigger, pushes the starter button and then advances the throttle to light-off and modulates the temp. Right?
Our company procedure is to NOT "pull or hold" the trigger, just push the starter button, advance the throttle thru the gate, then reach up with one of your fingers and "pull or hold" the trigger so as to be able to come back behind the gate and modulate. Maybe I was not clear in my first post, but as I see it this is contrary to what the RFM says.
Please advise
