INJURY.
NEVER STORE POWERHEAD WITH FUEL IN THE

Transporting Your Earth Auger Powerhead
1. Never transport engine inside an enclosed space or
vehicle. Fuel or fuel vapors may ignite causing serious
injury or death.
2. If fuel is present in the fuel tank, transport in an open
vehicle in an upright position.
3. If an enclosed vehicle must be used, remove gas into an
approved red fuel container. DO NOT siphon by mouth.
4. Run engine to use up the fuel in the carburetor and fuel
tank. Always run engine in a well ventilated area.
5. Wipe away any spilled fuel from engine and earth auger
powerhead. Allow to dry.
6. Ensure gas cap is shut tightly before transporting
powerhead in a vehicle.

Long-Term Storage
If your powerhead will not be used for more than one month,
prepare it for long term storage.
Steps for Long-Term Storage
1. Mix an appropriate amount of fuel stabilizer to fresh
gasoline in the ratio recommended on the stabilizer
packaging. Run the engine for five minutes to distribute
the stabilizer mixture throughout the fuel system. This
will prevent gum, varnish and corrosion build up in
your fuel system during long-term storage for up to 12
months.
2. Remove auger from powerhead and apply a thin layer of
grease to the output shaft of the transmission.
3. Store auger and powerhead in an upright position.
4. Remove all debris from auger and powerhead.
