You should be starting the car with the Spark Lever at top of the arc. This will have the engine fire when the engine is at Top Dead Centre and once started move the lever down to half way

Starting the car with the Spark Lever at the top or TDC will put less strain on the starter and engine

Starting procedure is explained in the Owner's Manual
