Before storing the unit for an extended period:
Be sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
Drain the fuel.
Do not place the tiller with the handlebars on the ground. It will cause
the oil entering the cylinder or fuel will spill over.
With the fuel valve turned OFF, remove and empty the fuel strainer
cup.
Turn the fuel valve ON and drain the gasoline from the fuel tank into
a suitable container.
Reinstall the fuel strainer cup and tighten securely.
Drain the carburetor by loosening the drain knob. Drain the gasoline
into a suitable container.
Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt. Continue pulling until
the notch on the starter pulley aligns with the hole on the recoil
starter.
At this point, the intake and exhaust valves are closed, and this
will help to protect the engine from internal corrosion.
Change engine oil and transmision oil.
Cover the tiller with plastic sheet.
