OPERATING IN WINTER
Check regularly that the air filter is dry. If the air filter has become wet, let it dry overnight. There is a pos -
sibility of the engine not starting due to a clogged air filter.
Spray the throttle cable with silicone spray at both ends, and the throttle linkage before operating to prevent
the cable or throttle mechanism from freezing up.
Before putting the machine away, sweep it clear of snow.
Avoid freezing the machine. Store the machine in a frost-free room.
Silicone Spray attracts dust and binds it to the machine. It is only a suitable lubricant in wintry and snowy
conditions.
Do not spray Silicone Spray on hot engine. It could cause a fire. Follow the instructions on the spray can.
Remove Foam Pre-Filter.
Use SAE 5W-30 Motor Oil.
