Use the illustrations and instructions to prepare the
FLOTO-PUMP for long term storage—2 months or
longer.
1 Siphon the fuel from the fuel tank. Continue to
next instruction.
2
Prepare a rag to collect fuel that flows from the
carburetor. Remove the fuel line from the
carburetor and capture the fuel to drain.
3 Remove the spark plug cable, then remove the
spark plug and set it aside.
4 Apply 3 or 4 squirts of oil—the same oil that
you use to mix with gasoline—into the piston
cylinder.
5 Pull the start handle a few times to coat the
cylinder walls with oil.
6 Install the spark plug that you set aside earlier.
Note:
Make sure that the spark plug is in
working condition.
•
Do not use a fouled spark plug.
•
Make sure that the spark plug is
properly gapped—0.030 inch.
•
Replace with NGK BR9HS (14 mm)
spark plug, or equivalent if necessary.
Install the spark plug cable, cover the pump,
and put it into storage.
