2. Drain the fuel:
Gasoline is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Do
not smoke or allow flames or sparks near the equipment while
draining fuel.

3. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt. Continue pulling until
the notch on the starter pulley aligns with the hole on the recoil
starter.
At this point, the intake and exhaust valves are closed, and this
will help to protect the engine from internal corrosion.
4. Change engine oil and transmission gear oil.
5. Cover the tiller with plastic sheet.
Do not place the tiller with the handlebars on the ground. It will cause
the oil entering the cylinder or fuel will spill over.
