It looks as if the carb float chamber needs to be filled before you use the starter. Presumably you have a mechanical fuel pump on the crankcase? If so, use the priming lever on the fuel pump to fill the carb. You will be able to tell by the sound when the float chamber has filled. I suspect the engine will then start on full choke no problem. If you have an electric fuel pump and it clicks a lot on turning on the ignition, that is a sign that the float chamber is empty. You may have a gravity feed, in which case I would fit an electric SU pump into the system!
