A pull assist mechanism comprising a reciprocating cord carriage member capable of receiving a pull cord of a fuel powered device. The pull cord being attachable to a power source of the powered device, and the reciprocating cord carriage member being movably mountable on a guide via a carriage movement member. The reciprocating cord carriage member being capable of travel on or along the guide means.

A traveling control section of a traveling vehicle is configured to effect a normal operation to control an output of an engine when a vehicle speed is below a set vehicle speed, such that the engine output may correspond to an operation amount of an accelerator operating tool and to effect an output suppressing operation when the vehicle speed is equals to or more than the set vehicle speed, such that the vehicle speed may stay below the set vehicle speed, irrespectively of the operation amount of the accelerator operating tool. A fuel ratio in an air-fuel ratio in the output suppressing operation is set smaller than a fuel ratio in an air-fuel ratio in the normal operation.

An electric starting system for an internal combustion engine is provided. The starting system includes a rechargeable battery including two voltage output terminals and an enable terminal, a battery receiver including a battery receptacle configured to receive the rechargeable battery, two voltage output terminals, and an enable terminal, a starter motor configured to start the internal combustion engine, and a continuous duty electrical load. The voltage output terminals of the lithium-ion battery and the battery receiver are configured to connect to complete a circuit between the rechargeable battery and the continuous duty electrical load when the rechargeable battery is attached to the battery receptacle.

A work vehicle includes a first detection unit that detects an optical beam emitted from a beam projector disposed at one end of a reference travel path, a first position deviation calculation section that calculates position deviation by a vehicle body from the reference travel path based on a detection signal from the first detection unit, a second detection unit that detects a work boundary line that occurs due to work travel, a second position deviation calculation section that calculates position deviation of the vehicle body traveling along successive travel paths from the work boundary line based on a detection signal from the second detection unit, and a steering information generation section that, based on the position deviation calculated by the first position deviation calculation section and the second position deviation calculation section, generates steering information for correcting the position deviation.
