STORAGE
 WARNING
• When draining fuel, please be careful not to spill it. If fuel is spilt, wipe off thoroughly. In
addition, please be sure to close the storage container cap tightly.
!
IMPORTANT
• If fuel is left in the engine for protracted periods, the inside of the carburetor may become
clogged and cause engine malfunction (faulty starting and insufficient output).
• During storage, slightly loosen the cap of the chemical fluid tank. If screwed too tightly, the
gasket may become distorted.
On completion of all work procedures, when not planning to use again for a protracted period
please carry out the following pre-storage care, to prevent trouble caused by time-lapse changes.
1. Clean the chemical fluid tank and nozzle (see page 10).
2. Remove dirt from the sprayer, inspect it for any damage or looseness, and, if any abnormality is
found, correct it thoroughly in preparation for the next time you use the unit.
3. Drain the fuel tank.
4. Start the engine, and leave it in idling condition until all the fuel inside the carburetor is spent
and the engine comes to a natural stop.
5. Remove the spark plug and put a few drops (1 to 2 cc) of 2-cycle oil inside the engine. After
pulling the starter rope 2 or 3 times, return the spark plugs to their original position and stop
in compressed position.
6. After oiling the throttle lever and other metal parts with anti-corrosive oil, cover the sprayer
and store indoors in a low-humidity location.
When disposing your machine, fuel or oil for the machine, be sure to allow your local
regulations.
