1.

 

After  using  the  cultivator  and  before  transporting it  in 
a truck bed, screw the gas cap screw and gas cap on 
(clockwise)  tightly.  The  gas  cap  will  not  leak  during 
transporting if gas cap is tight and the screw at the top 
is tight. Never transport engine inside an enclosed space 
within a vehicle. Fuel or fuel vapors may ignite causing

vehicle in an upright position.

tank. Always run engine in a well-ventilated area. 

5.

 

Wipe away any spilled fuel from engine and cultivator. 
Allow to dry. 

6.

 

Gas cap and gas cap vent screw should be turned 
down tightly before transporting cultivator in a vehicle. 

LONG TERM STORAGE

prepare it for long term storage.
