Storage
WARNING
Fire and Explosion Hazard
Never store the unit (with fuel) in an enclosed, unventilated
structure. Fuel vapors can travel to an ignition source (such
as a furnace, water heater, etc.) and cause an explosion.
Fuel vapor is also toxic to humans and animals.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel in Tank
• Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, or
other appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition
sources because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Equipment
Disengage the PTO, lock the ground speed levers in the
START/PARK position, and remove the key.
Battery life will be increased if it is removed. Put in a cool, dry
place and keep fully charged during storage. If the battery is
left in the unit, disconnect the negative cable.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system
or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use
Briggs & Stratton® Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment
& Stabilizer , available wherever Briggs & Stratton genuine
service parts are sold.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine
for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel
system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24
months.
If gasoline in the tank has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil.
Before starting the unit after it has been stored:
• Check all fluid levels. Check all maintenance items.
• Perform all recommended checks and procedures found
in this manual.
• Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before
use.
