9. Start the snowthrower and run the engine until it stops.

Repeat this step two more times to ensure that the fuel
tank and the carburetor are empty.

Storage

Warning

Gasoline fumes are highly flammable, explosive,
and dangerous if inhaled. If the product is stored
in an area with an open flame, the gasoline fumes
may ignite and cause an explosion.

Do not store the snowthrower in a house (living
area), basement, or any other area where ignition
sources may be present, such as hot water and
space heaters, clothes dryers, furnaces, and other
like appliances.

Preparing the Fuel System

1. Add stabilizer/conditioner to the fuel in the fuel tank as

directed.

2. Run the engine for ten minutes to distribute conditioned

fuel through the fuel system.

3. Stop the engine, allow it to cool, and drain the fuel tank

or run the engine until it stops. Refer to Emptying the
Fuel Tank on page 27.

4. Start the engine and run it until it stops.

5. Choke or prime the engine, start it a third time, and run

the engine until it will not start.

6. Dispose of unused fuel properly. Recycle it according to

local codes, or use it in your automobile.

Note: Do not store stabilized gasoline for more than 90
days.

Preparing the Engine

1. While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil.

Refer to Changing the Engine Oil on page 26.

2. Remove the spark plug.

3. Use an oil can to squirt two teaspoons of oil into the

spark plug hole.

4. Install the spark plug by hand and then torque it to

15 ft-lb (20.4 N

m). If you do not have a torque wrench,

tighten the plug firmly. Do not connect the wire to the
plug.

5. Pull the recoil starter slowly to distribute the oil on the

inside of the cylinder.

Preparing the Snowthrower

1. Lubricate the snowthrower. Refer to Lubricating the

Snowthrower on page 26.

2. Clean the snowthrower.

3. Touch up chipped surfaces with paint available from an

Authorized Service Dealer. Sand affected areas before
painting, and use a rust preventative to prevent the
metal parts from rusting.

4. Tighten any loose fasteners. Repair or replace any

damaged parts.

5. Cover the snowthrower and store it in a clean, dry place

out of the reach of children. Allow the engine to cool
before storing it in any enclosure.
