STORAGE

ENGINE

Consult the Engine Owner's Manual for the manufacturer's recommendations for storage.

PUMP

The manufacturer recommends using a pump protector/winterizer when storing the unit for more than 30 days and/or when freezing temperatures are expected. If a pump protector/ winterizer is not available, RV* antifreeze needs to be run through the pump as outlined in the steps below.

NOTE: Using a pump protector/ winterizer or RV* antifreeze is to provide proper lubrication to the internal seals of the pump regardless of temperature or environment.

1.Obtain a funnel, 6 oz. of RV* antifreeze, and 16–36" of garden hose with a male hose connector attached to one end.

Use only RV antifreeze. Any

other antifreeze is corrosive and can damage pump.

2.Disconnect spark plug wire.

3.Connect a hose to water supply inlet of pump.

4.Add RV* antifreeze to hose as shown in Fig. 24.

5.Pull engine starter rope slowly several times until antifreeze comes out of high pressure hose connection of pump.

6.Remove hose from water supply inlet.

7.Reconnect spark plug wire. *Windshield washer fluid may also be used
