STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS

CAUTION! Do not store engine indoors or other poorly ventilated area. Keep engine away from gas appliances where fumes could contact open flame, pilot lights, or sparks.

If engine is to be stored for 30 or more days, prepare unit as follows:

•Drain fuel outside into an approved container.

•Start engine properly and run until unit is out of fuel.

•Let engine cool.

•Remove remaining gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming within the engine. Gum deposits can cause malfunction in the engine.

•Store mower with blades disengaged to prevent belts from being permanently stretched.

For best results cutter blades must be kept sharp. The blades can be sharpened with a few strokes of a file or grinding wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen blades while they are on the cutter. Disconnect spark plug wire before servicing unit.

Important: Replace blades that have been damaged or deeply nicked.

Important: Check blade and spindle hardware on a regular basis to make sure nuts are tight.
