PLACING IN STORAGE
If your pump will be stored with petrol in the fuel tank and carburetor, it
is important to reduce the hazard of petrol vapor ignition. Select a
well-ventilated storage area away from any appliance that operates
with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also
avoid any area with a spark producing electric motor, or where power
tools are operated.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that
promotes rust and corrosion.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel
valve in the OFF position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Place the pump on a level surface. Tilting can cause fuel or oil
leakage.
With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the pump to keep out
dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some
materials.
Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap
moisture around the pump, promoting rust and corrosion.
REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
Check your pump as described in
BEFORE OPERATION
(page 4).
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with
fresh petrol. If you keep a container of petrol for refueling, be sure that
it contains only fresh petrol. Petrol oxidizes and deteriorates over
time, causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the
engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.
