* Before installing new properly gapped spark plugs at pre-season
preparation, it is suggested to burn excess storage oil by starting
the engine with the old spark plugs. Only perform this operation
in a well ventilated area.
** Lubricate whenever the vehicle is used in wet conditions (wet snow,
rain, puddles).
