Transport, Storage, and Removal from Storage
Transport
Transport with the fuel vale turned to the “OFF” position. Only store the engine when it has cooled off to
avoid fires or burns.
Storage
Before Storing Engine
Before storing the unit for an extended period:
1. Be sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
2. Drain the fuel.
a. With the fuel valve in the “OFF” position, remove and empty the sediment cup.
b. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position and drain the gasoline from the fuel tank into a
suitable container.
c. Replace the sediment cup and tighten securely.
d. Draing the carburetor by loosening the drain screw. Drain the gasoline into a suitable
container.
3. Change the engine oil.
4. Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon of clean engine oil into the cylinder. Crank the
engine several revolutions to distribute the oil, then reinstall the spark plug.
5. Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. Continue pulling until the notch on the starter
pully aligns with the hole on the recoil starter. See illustration below. At this point, the intake and
exhaust valves are closed, and this will help to protect the engine from internal corrosion.
6. Electric starter type: Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Recharge it once a
month.
7. Cover the engine to keep out dust.
CAUTION

Do not tilt engine, keep engine at a level position to prevent fuel spillage. Fuel vapor or
spilled fuel may ignite.
