Long Term Storage

Whenever the unit will not be used for
30 days or longer, use the following
procedures to prepare it for storage:
 Clean external parts thoroughly.
 Drain all the fuel from the fuel tank.
IMPORTANT!
All stored fuels should be stabilized
with a fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL™ ,
if oil with fuel stabilizer is
not used.
CAUTION!
Gasoline stored in the carburetor
for extended periods can cause hard
starting and could also lead
to increased service and maintenance
cost.
To remove the remaining fuel from the
fuel lines and carburetor and with the fuel
drained from the fuel tank.
1. Prime the primer bulb until no more
fuel is passing through.
. Start and run the engine until it
stops running.
3. Repeat steps 1 and  until the engine
will no longer start.
 Remove the spark plug and pour about
1/4 ounce of -cycle mixing oil into the
cylinder through the spark plug hole.
Slowly pull the recoil starter  or 3
times so oil will evenly coat the interior
of the engine. Reinstall the spark plug.
 Before storing the unit, repair or
replace any worn or damaged parts.
 Remove the air cleaner element from
the carburetor and clean it thoroughly
with soap and water. Let dry and
reassemble the air cleaner.
 Store the unit in a clean,
dust-free area.
