OTHER

Do not store gasoline from one season to another.

Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.

If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to protect it from dust and dirt.

Cover your unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture. Do

not use plastic. Plastic cannot breathe, which allows condensation to form and

will cause your unit to rust.

IMPORTANT: Never cover mower while engine and exhaust areas are still warm.

• I,CAUTION: Never store the lawn mower with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes may reach an open flame

or spark. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
