Storage
At the end of the season, (or if it will not be in use for
longer than 30 days) the machine should be readied
for storage. fuel allowed to stand for long periods of
time (30 days or more) can leave sticky residues that
can plug the carburetor and disrupt engine function.
fuel stabilizers are an acceptable option to reducing
sticky residues during storage. If alkylate gasoline
(Aspen) is used, stabilizers are unnecessary because
this fuel is stable. However, you should avoid
switching between regular and alkylate gasoline
as sensitive rubber components can harden. Add
stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the storage
container. Always use the mixing ratios specified by
the manufacturer of the stabilizer. run the engine for
at least 10 minutes after adding the stabilizer so that
it reaches the carburetor. do not empty the fuel tank
and the carburetor if you have added stabilizer.
to ready the machine for storage, follow these
steps:
clean the machine carefully, particularly
1.
the chassis and working equipment. mend
damage to the paint to prevent rust.
Inspect the machine for worn or damaged
2.
parts and tighten any nuts or bolts that may
have become loose.
change the engine oil; dispose of properly.
3.
open the fuel valve. empty the fuel tank and
4.
the carburetor. (for specific instructions, refer
to the engine manual).
close the fuel valve.
5.
remove the spark plug and pour about
6.
a tablespoon of engine oil in the cylinder.
turn over the engine so that the oil is evenly
distributed and then refit the spark plug. Put
the engine in the compression phase where
the triangle mark on the sleeve of the starter
is aligned with the upper hole in the starter.
note: compression phase occurs every
second revolution.
lubricate all grease zerks, joints and chains
7.
as described in the chapter “lubrication”.
Store the machine in a clean, dry place and
8.
cover it for extra protection.
WARNING!
Never store an engine with fuel in the
tank indoors or in poorly ventilated
spaces where fuel vapor can come in
contact with open flame, sparks or a
pilot light such as in a boiler, hot water
tank, clothing dryer, etc. Handle the fuel
with caution. It is very flammable and
careless use can cause serious damage
to person and property. Drain the fuel
into an approved container outdoors
and far away from open flame. Never use
gasoline for cleaning. Use a degreaser
and warm water instead.
