SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Storage

 CAUTION

Failure to use a fuel stabilizing additive or completely run 
the engine until it’s out of fuel before off-season storage 
may result in damage to your engine’s carburetor. 
Subsequent damage would 

not

 be covered under the 

manufacturer’s warranty.

Fuel that will be stored longer than 30 days needs to be 
pre-treated upon purchase with fuel stabilizer to prevent 
gum and varnish from forming in the engines fuel and intake 
system. Improper fuel storage can result in hard starting, no 
starting, stalling and poor performance. If the fuel in your 
engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to have the 
carburetor, and other fuel system components, serviced or 
replaced.

1.  Remove all fuel from fuel tank by running engine until it 

stops from lack of fuel.

 WARNING

Never leave engine unattended while running.

2.  Change oil. See Oil Change on page 10.

3.  Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 an ounce of engine 

oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and crank slowly to 
distribute oil.

4.  Clean debris from around engine, under finger guard, and 

under, around and behind muffler. Touch up any damaged 
paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a light film 
of oil.

5.  Store in a clean, dry and well ventilated area away from any 

appliance that operates with a flame or pilot light, 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.

6.  If possible, also avoid storage areas with high humidity, 

because that promotes rust and corrosion.

7.  Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or oil 

leakage.

Removing From Storage

1.  Check your engine as described in Pre-Operation Check on 

page 8.

2.  If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the 

fuel tank with fresh fuel. If you keep a container of gasoline 
for refueling, make certain it contains only fresh fuel. 
Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing hard 
starting.

3.  If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage 

preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at startup. This 
is normal.

4.  Check that the spark plug washer is in good condition and 

thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent cross-threading.

5.  After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark plug 

wrench to compress the washer.

NOTE: 

When installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn 

after the spark plug seats to compress the washer. When 
reinstalling a used spark plug, tighten 1/8-1/4 turn after the 
spark plug seats to compress the washer.

IMPORTANT: 

The spark plug must be securely tightened. An 

improperly tightened spark plug can become very hot and 
may damage the engine.

Fuel Filter Service

The fuel filter cannot be cleaned and must be replaced once a 
year or every 100 operating hours; more often if run with old 
gasoline.

1.  Remove all fuel from fuel tank by running engine until it 

stops from lack of fuel.

2.  Remove hose clamp from fuel line and remove fuel line from 

tank outlet (Figure 12).

Figure 12

3.  Pull out old fuel filter from tank outlet. Replace when dirty 

or damaged.

4.  Grasp new fuel filter from shouldered end and insert it 

completely to the shoulder into the fuel tank outlet (Figure 
12).

5.  Replace fuel line and hose clamp.

Clean Engine

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least half 
an hour before cleaning. Periodically remove dirt build-up from 
engine. Clean finger guard and around muffler. Clean with a 
brush or compressed air.

IMPORTANT: 

Do not spray engine with water to clean because 

water could contaminate fuel. Using a garden hose or pressure 
washing equipment can also force water into the air cleaner or 
muffler opening. Water in the air cleaner will soak the paper 
element, and water that passes through the element or muffler 
can enter the cylinder, causing damage.

 WARNING

Accumulation of debris around muffler could cause a fire. 
Inspect and clean before every use.
