Storage
STORAGE
See General Warnings on page 9.
DANGER
• Do not attempt to drain fuel when the engine is hot or while it is running.
• Be sure to clean up any spilled gasoline before operating the vehicle.
• Store fuel in an approved fuel container only. Store in a well-ventilated area away from sparks, open
flames, heaters, or heat sources.
• Keep fuel out of the reach of children.
• Do not siphon fuel 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 14).
• Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the battery. Frozen
batteries can explode.
CAUTION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
PREPARING THE VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
1.
Unload the vehicle so that tires are supporting only the weight of the vehicle.
2.
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.
Check electrolyte level after charging and add distilled water if necessary.
3.
Make sure the key switch is in the OFF position and the Forward/Reverse handle is in the NEUTRAL position.
Chock the wheels.
4.
Access the engine compartment.
See WARNING “For vehicles with cargo beds...” in General Warnings
on page 9.
5.
Lift the front passenger side seat.
6.
Drain carburetor and seal the fuel tank.
6.1.
Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed
(OFF) position
(Figure 14)
and run the engine until fuel remaining in the carburetor and fuel lines is
depleted and the engine stalls.
6.2. 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.
6.3. Fill fuel tank to about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from top of fuel tank and, following manufacturer’s directions, add a
commercially available fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil
®
).
6.4. Disconnect fuel vent line from fuel tank vent nipple.
6.5. Plug the fuel tank vent nipple so that it is air tight. We recommend using a slip-on vinyl cap.
