Storage

1.Engines stored over 30 days need to be protected or drained of fuel to prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on essential carburetor parts.

•If fuel tank contains oxygenated or reformulated gasoline (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an ether), run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.

•If fuel tank contains gasoline, either run engine until it stops from lack of fuel, or add a gasoline additive to the gas in tank.

2.While engine is still warm, change oil.

3.Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 oz (15ml) of engine oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and crank slowly to distribute oil.

4.Clean dirt and chaff from cylinder, cylinder head fins, blower housing and rotating screen areas.

5.Store in a clean, dry area. Do not store in same area as a stove, furnace, water heater, or other appliance that uses a pilot light or has a device that can create a spark.
