Fuel vapors are flammable and explosive. Do not store a vehicle with fuel in the tank in a building where fumes can reach a spark or an open flames (i.e. plug-in sockets, light switches, light fixtures, power tools, welders, pilot lights and stoves).

Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide. Do not run a vehicle inside a building any longer than what it takes to move it. Serious illness or death may result from prolong exposure to carbon monoxide.

4.Refill with fresh oil of proper viscosity. Refer to page 33.

5.Replace fuel filter if needed. Refer to page 28.

6.Prepare fuel system as follows:

Short term storage (90 days or less):

a.Siphon most of the fuel from the tank.

b.Add fuel stabilizer to the tank per manufacturers recommendation.

IMPORTANT: Do not use fuel additives containing methanol or ethanol.

c.Fill fuel tank with fresh fuel to prevent water condensation build-up.

d.Run engine to circulate fresh fuel throughout engine components.

Long term storage (over 90 days):

a.Siphon most of the fuel from the tank.

b.Run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.

8.Clean dirt and chaff from cylinders and fins, blower housing and muffler.

d.Crank engine with starter at least a dozen revolutions to distribute oil over cylinder walls and valve mechanism.

7.Clean exterior surface of engine. Spread a light film of oil over any exposed metal surfaces of engine that are subject to corrosion.
