STORAGE

CAUTION: AVOID INJURY. Read and understand the entire Safety section before proceeding.

IMPORTANT: NEVER spray unit with high- pressure water or store unit outdoors. Store mower in a cool, dry, protected location.

Cleaning

NOTE: Allow unit to cool before cleaning.

Clean unit thoroughly with mild soap and low pressure water. Brush off dirt and debris from all surfaces. Touch up all scratched surfaces to prevent rust. Matching touch-up paint is available from your Ariens Dealer. Do not use abrasives, solvents, or harsh cleaners.

Inspection

Inspect mower and repair or replace worn or damaged parts to avoid delays when beginning use again.

Regularly check all hardware and keep fasteners tight. Know unit is in safe working condition.

Grass Bag

Wash out grass bag and allow to dry before storage. Grass bag may be stored in position on mower.

Engine

When storing unit for extended periods of time, remove all fuel from tank and carburetor (run dry). Refer to engine manual.

Fuel System

Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate, resulting in gum deposits in the system. These deposits can damage the carburetor and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent deposits from forming in the fuel system during storage by adding a quality fuel stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the recommended mix ratio found on the fuel stabilizer container.

To treat the fuel system for storage:

1.Add fuel stabilizer according to manufacturers’s instructions.

2.Run engine for at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor.

NEVER store the engine with fuel in the fuel tank inside of a building with potential sources of ignition.
