Z_ WARNING: Never store your

Edger indoors or in an enclosed, poorly ventilated area. If gasoline remains in the tank, fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light from a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, cigarette, etc.

EDGER

Clean the Edger thoroughly; remove all debris and wipe the unit dry.

Inspect the Edger for worn or damaged parts and tighten all loose hardware.

Oil all points described in the Lubrication

paragraph in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.

Store the Edger in a protected area and cover for additional protection.

IMPORTANT:A yearly checkup or tune- up by a Craftsman Service Center is a

good way of ensuring that your Edger will provide maximum performance for the next season.

ENGINE

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent

gum deposits from forming in essential

fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage.

Also, experience indicates that using alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.

To prevent engine damage (if Edger is not used for more than 30 days) follow the steps below.

To remove gasoline, run the engine until the tank is empty and the engine stops.

If you do not want to remove gasoline, a fuel stabilizer (such as Craftsman fuel stabilizer No. 33500) may be added to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize

gum deposits and acids. If the tank is almost empty, mix stabilizer with fresh

gasoline in a separate container and add

some to the tank. Always follow instruc- tions on stabilizer container, Then run

engine at least 10 minutes after stabilizer is added to allow mixture to reach

carburetor. Store Edger in a safe place. See waming on this page.

Store the Edger in the wheels-down, operating position. If the Edger is stored in any other position, oil from the crankcase could enter the cylinder, causing a service problem.

You can keep your engine in good operat- ing condition during storage by:

Changing oil.

Lubricating the piston/cylinder area. This can be done by first removing the spark plug and squirting clean engine oil into the spark plug hole. Then cover the spark plug hole with a rag to absorb oil spray. Next, rotate the engine by pulling the starter two or three times. Finally, reinstall spark plug and attach spark plug wire.
