STORAGE-TRANSPORTING

STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

If your tiller will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor ignition. Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any appliance that operates with a flame, 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.

If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that promotes rust and corrosion.

With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the tiller to keep out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture, promoting rust and corrosion.

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE

Check your tiller as described in the BEFORE OPERATION chapter of this manual (see page 8). If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.

If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.

TRANSPORTING

Before Loading

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the tiller on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some materials.

1.Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.

2.Make sure the fuel cap is securely tightened.

3.Install the wheels to provide added stability when transporting (see page 7).

Loading

If necessary, loosen the handlebar knobs [1] so that the tiller upper handlebar [2] can be collapsed forward over the engine. Be careful that the throttle cable and engine switch wire [3] are not pinched or bent when collapsing the upper handlebar.

Secure the tiller by tying around the lower handlebars [4] just in front and back of the engine.
