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.
With the engine cool, cover the engine to keep out dust.
Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture around
the engine, promoting rust and corrosion.
Removal From Storage
Check your engine as described in the BEFORE OPERATION chapter of this manual.
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline.
Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.
TRANSPORTING

transport
In the figure below, the center of gravity of the machine is suitable for the lifting
position of the machine.
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before loading
the engine-powerd equipment on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust
system can burn you and can ignite some materials.
