STORAGE
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
• To reduce fire hazards, allow the engine and the
exhaust system to cool before storing the
machine indoors or near combustible materials.
• To avoid the danger of exhaust fume poisoning,
do not operate the engine indoors without
proper ventilation.
• Do not clean the machine with the engine
running.
• To avoid fire hazards, do not leave grass and
leaves in the mower and the grass catcher.
• When storing, remove the key from the key
switch to avoid operation by unauthorized
persons.
STORING THE MACHINE
When the machine will not be operated for over 2
months, clean the machine and perform the following
operations before storage:
1. Repair parts as necessary.
2. Check bolts and nuts and tighten as necessary.
3. Apply grease or engine oil to parts most likely to
rust.
4. Inflate the tires to a little above the standard
pressure levels (approximately 110%).
5. Lower the mower to the ground.
6. Remove the battery from the machine, recharge it,
adjust the electrolyte to the proper level, and store
in a cool dry place.
The battery discharges over time even while in
storage. Recharge it once a month in the hot
season and once every 2 months in the cold
season.
7. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines and carburetor or use
a fuel stabilizer to prevent deterioration of the
gasoline. If you choose to use a fuel stabilizer,
follow the manufacturers recommendations and add
the correct amount for the capacity of the fuel
system. Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh gasoline.
Run the engine for 2 to 3 minutes to get stabilized
fuel into the carburetor.
IMPORTANT :
• Allow engine and muffler to cool down
sufficiently. Then drain carburetor.
• If a spill of fuel should occur, wipe it off at
once securely.
8. Store the machine in a dry place sheltered from
rain. Cover the machine with a vinyl tarp.
9. Moisture content in most grasses can damage the
mower and grass catcher if these components are
not properly cleaned after use.
Make sure the mower and the grass catcher are
clean and completely empty before storage.
REMOVING THE MACHINE
FROM STORAGE
1. Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust as
required.
2. Install the battery. Before installing the battery, be
sure it is fully charged.
3. Do the daily check.
4. Check all fluid levels (engine oil).
5. Start the engine. Shut the engine off, walk around
the machine and make a visual inspection looking
for leakage of oil or other fluids.
6. Run the engine a couple of minutes before you put
the engine under load.
