5 - Carriage and storage
5.1 - CARRIAGE
1.
Use carrier such as crane when carrying the engine, or hurt your waist and yourself. Support the en-
gine securely with rope not to fall while carrying it.
2.
When lifting the engine, put the hook securely to metal fittings attached to the engine. Use strong hook
and fittings enough to hang the engine.
5.2 - STORAGE
Before storing the engine for more than a few months, remove any dirt on the machine, and :
1.
Drain the coolant in the radiator. Open the cock at the bottom of the radiator, and remove the pressure
cap to drain water completely. Leave the cock open. Hang a note written "No water" on the pressure
cap. Since water may freeze when the temperature drops below 0°C (32°F), it is very important that
no water is left in the machine.
2.
Remove dirty engine oil, fill with new oil and run the engine for about 5 minutes to let the oil penetrate
to all the parts.
3.
Check all the bolts and nuts, and tighten if necessary.
4.
Remove the battery from the engine, adjust the electrolyte level, and recharge it. Store the battery in
a dry and dark place.
5.
When the engine is not used for a long period of time, run it for about 10 minutes under no load every
2 to 3 months to keep it free from rust. If the engine is stored without any running, moisture in the air
may condense into dew over the sliding parts of the engine, resulting in rust there.
6.
If you forget to run the engine for longer than 5 to 6 months, apply enough engine oil to the valve
guide and valve stem seal and make sure the valve works smoothly before starting the engine.
7.
Store the engine in a flat place and remove the key from engine.
8.
Do not store the engine in a place where has flammable materials such as dry grass or straw.
9.
When covering the engine for storage, let engine and muffler cool off completely.
10.
Operate the engine after checking and repairing damaged wirings or pipes, and clearing flammable
materials carried by mouse.
To avoid personal injury :
• Fix the engine securely not to fall during operation.
• Do not stand near or under the engine while carrying it.
• The engine is heavy. In handling it, be very alert not to get your hands and body caught in.
To avoid personal injury :
• Do not clean the machine with engine running.
• To avoid the danger of exhaust fume poisoning, do not operate the engine in a closed building without proper
ventilation.
• When storing the engine just after running, let the engine cool off.
