Sure. Hold the crank in the flat palm of your hand. Do not grasp the crank by placing your thumb around it. Pull Up on the crank with your thumb UNDER it the same as your fingers.

Anyway, by retarding the spark, most of the danger of it kicking is removed. Don't ever let anyone talk you into a coil and distributer for that little jewel of a tractor you have.
