•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.
_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.
