DANGER
• Do not attempt to drain gasoline when the engine is hot or while it is running.
• Be sure to clean up any spilled gasoline before operating the vehicle.
• Store gasoline in an approved gasoline container only. Store in a well-ventilated area away
from sparks, open flames, heaters, or heat sources.
• Keep gasoline out of reach of children.
• Do not siphon gasoline from the vehicle.
∆
WARNING
• Turn the key switch to the OFF position, remove the key, and leave the Forward/Reverse
handle in the NEUTRAL position during storage. This is to prevent unintentionally starting the
vehicle or a fire hazard.
• Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 17).
∆
CAUTION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
PREPARING THE GASOLINE VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
1. Store vehicle in a cool, dry place. This will minimize battery self-discharge. If the battery appears to be
weak, have it charged by a trained technician. Use an automotive-type 12-volt battery charger rated at
10 amps or less.
2. Drain carburetor and seal the fuel tank.
2.1. Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position and the neutral lockout cam in the
SERVICE position. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 17) and run the
engine until fuel remaining in the carburetor and fuel lines is depleted and the engine stalls. Return
the neutral lockout cam to the OPERATE position.
2.2. Loosen, but do not remove, the carburetor drain screw and drain fuel remaining in bowl into a small,
clean container, then pour the fuel from the container into vehicle fuel tank. Tighten the carburetor
drain screw.
2.3. Disconnect fuel vent line from fuel tank vent nipple.
2.4. Plug the fuel tank vent nipple so that it is air tight. We recommend using a slip-on vinyl cap.
3. Disconnect the battery cables, negative (–) cable first.
4. Batteries should be clean and free of corrosion. Wash tops and terminals of batteries with a solution of
baking soda and water (1 cup (237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse solution off bat-
teries. Do not allow this solution to enter the batteries. Be sure terminals are tight. Let the terminals dry
and then coat them with Battery Terminal Protector Spray (CCI P/N 1014305).
