Draining The Fuel Tank And Carburetor - LONCIN 1P61FA Manuel D'utilisation

DRAINING THE FUEL TANK AND CARBURETOR

4. Place an approved
container below the carburetor,
and use a funnel to avoid spilling
fuel.
5. Remove the carburetor drain bolt
and sealing washer, and then
move the fuel valve lever to the ON
position.
6. After all the fuel has drain into the
container, reinstall the drain bolt
and sealing washer. Tighten them
securely.
Storage Precautions
8. Change the engine oil.
9. Remove the spark plugs.
10. Pour a tablespoon (5-10 cc) of clean engine oil into the cylinder.
11. Pull the starter rope several times to distribute the oil in the cylinder.
12. Reinstall the spark plugs.
13. Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. This will close the valves so moisture
cannot enter the engine cylinder. Return the starter rope gently.
If your engine will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and carburetor, it is important to reduce
the hazard of gasoline vapor ignition. Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any
appliance that operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also
avoid any area with a spark-producing electric motor, or where power tools are operated.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that promotes rust and corrosion.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel valve lever in the OFF position
to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Position the equipment so the engine is level. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage.
14. With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the engine to keep out dust. A hot engine
and exhaust system can ignite or melt some materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust
cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture around the engine, promoting rust and corrosion.
