Storage
Storage Safety
•
Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all movement to stop before you leave the
operator’s position. Allow the machine to cool
before adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing it.
•
Fuel fumes are highly flammable, explosive, and
dangerous if inhaled. If you store the product in an
area with an open flame, the fuel fumes may ignite
and cause an explosion.
•
Do not store the machine 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
appliances.
•
Do not tip the machine either forward or backward
with fuel in the fuel tank; otherwise, fuel may leak
out of the machine.
•
Do not store the machine with its handle tipped
down onto the ground; otherwise, oil may leak into
the engine cylinder and onto the ground, and the
engine may not start.
Storing the Machine
1. On the last refueling of the season, add fuel
stabilizer to fresh fuel as directed by the
fuel-stabilizer manufacturer.
Important:
Do not store fuel longer
than that suggested by the fuel-stabilizer
manufacturer.
2. Run the engine for 10 minutes to distribute the
conditioned fuel through the fuel system.
3. Shut off the engine, allow it to cool, and siphon
the fuel tank or run the engine until it shuts off.
4. Start the engine and run it until it shuts off.
5. Choke or prime the engine, start it a third time,
and run the engine until it does not start.
6. Drain the fuel from the tank and carburetor by
performing the following steps:
A. Loosen the fuel-tank cap.
B. Unscrew, but do not remove, the small
screw on the side of the carburetor fuel bowl
(
Figure 29 ) until the fuel begins to drain
from the carburetor.
Important:
Do not remove the
carburetor bowl bolt on the bottom of
the carburetor.

not remove 2. Small screw on carburetor
C. Wait for a few minutes until the fuel has
drained, then install the fuel cap and tighten
the small screw on the carburetor.
Note:
Use a handheld Phillips
screwdriver to tighten the carburetor
screw. Overtightening the screw could strip
it and cause leaking.
7. Dispose of unused fuel properly. Recycle it
according to local codes, or use it in your
automobile.
8. While the engine is still warm, change the engine
oil. Refer to
Changing the Engine Oil (page 15) .
9. Remove the spark plug.
10. Squirt 10 ml (2 tsp) of oil into the spark-plug hole.
11. Install the spark plug by hand and then torque it
to 27 to 30 N∙m (20 to 22 ft-lb).
12. With the key removed, pull the recoil-start
handle slowly to distribute the oil on the inside
of the cylinder.
13. Clean the machine.
14. 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.
15. Tighten any loose fasteners. Repair or replace
any damaged parts.
16. Cover the machine and store it in a clean, dry
place out of the reach of children. Allow the
engine to cool before storing the machine in any
enclosure.
