STORAGE AND SHIPMENT
NOTE
It is a good idea to retain the original machine shipping carton as well as its inner packing
and blocking materials for any storage and shipment which may be required.
1. If the machine is functional, flush the formulation system in accordance with the
instructions under MAINTENANCE. Drain the Formulation Tank by removing the
Formulation Tank Cap (Fig. 14 ref. 1) from the tank neck, removing the Drain Plug from the
bottom of the Formulation Tank and then tilting the machine using a rotary motion to cause
all the formulation to be removed. Rinse the inside of the Formulation Tank using one of the
liquids specified for FLUSHING under MAINTENANCE. When all the liquid has been
removed from the Formulation Tank, re-install the Drain Plug and the Formulation Tank Cap.
2. Drain the Fuel Tank (Fig. 14 Ref. 3) by removing the Fuel Tank Cap carefully
counterclockwise (CCW), removing the Fuel Tank Plug and tilting the machine using a rotary
motion to cause all the fuel to be removed. Re-install the Fuel Tank Plug and the Fuel Tank
Cap. Then PUMP repeatedly with the IGNITION SWITCH held on until no further firing
occurs and no further fuel is observed in the Antechamber of the engine. This will clear out
any fuel left in the lines or in the Fuel Valve.
3. Remove the Battery from the battery container and store the Battery in a cool dry place.
4. Store the machine in a cool dry place and if the original carton is not available, cover the
machine to avoid any accumulation of dust or dirt.
5. When the original carton and its inner packing and blocking materials are not available
and the machine is to be shipped long distances or by commercial carrier, considerable care
must be taken in packaging to avoid damage in transit. The machine must be held against
rocking, shifting, or bouncing in the carton.
WARNING
IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL LAW TO SHIP INSECTICIDES AND FLAMMABLE
LIQUIDS IN AN UNMARKED, NON-D.O.T. APPROVED CONTAINER WITHOUT PROPER
LABELING AND U.N. NUMBER.
IF FOR ANY REASON IT BECOMES NECESSARY TO RETURN YOUR MACHINE
TO OUR FACTORY, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE FORMULATION AND FUEL TANKS
HAVE BEEN DRAINED AND FLUSHED, AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. IF A MACHINE IS
RECEIVED THAT HAS NOT BEEN DRAINED AND FLUSHED, A SERVICE FEE WILL BE
CHARGED FOR DOING SO.
