WARNING: NEVER STORE ENGINE WITH FUEL IN
TANK INDOORS OR IN ENCLOSED, POORLY VEN-
TILATED AREAS WHERE FUMES MAY REACH AN
OPEN FLAME, SPARK OR PILOT LIGHT AS ON A
FURNACE, WATER HEATER, CLOTHES DRYER
OR OTHER GAS APPLIANCE.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience
indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called "gasoho]" or
using ethanol or methanol) can attract moistu re which leads
to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer Follow these
instructions:
Drain Fuel System: Remove all gasoline from carburetor
and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on
these parts and causing possible malfunction of engine.
TAINER OUTDOORS, AWAY FROM OPEN FLAME.
BE SURE ENGINE ISCOOL. DO NOT SMOKE.
• If you did use "gasohol", run engine until engine stops
from lack of fuelo Make sure you have water supply to
pump inlet connected and turned ON.
• Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL ®) is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing fuel gum deposits during stor-
age.
Change Oil: While engine is still warm, drain oil from
crankcase_ Refill with recommended grade,
Oil Cylinder Bore: Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2
ounce (15ml) of engine oil into the cylinder_ Cover spark
plug hole with rag. Crank slowly to distribute oil.
t ,_ CAUTION' AVOID SPRAY FROM SPARK PLUG !
HOLE WHEN CRANKING ENGINE SLOWLY,
* Install spark plug,, Do not connect spark plug wire,
