D How to Prepare for Storage

WARNING

Never store the tiller indoors with fuel in the fuel tank. Never store in an enclosed, poorly ventilated area where fumes could reach an open flame, a spark or a pilot light as on a furnace, water heater or clothes dryer. Allow engine to cool before storing unit.

WARNING

Do not remove gasoline while inside a building, near a fire, or while you smoke. Gasoline fumes can cause an explosion or a fire.

NOTE: A yearly checkup or tune-up at an authorized service center will make sure that the tiller will provide maximum per- formance for the next season.

When the tiller is put in storage for thirty days or more, the following steps should be followed to make sure the tiller is in good condition the next season.

1.Let the engine run until it is out of gasoline.

2.Change the oil by following instructions under “How to Change the Oil.”

3.Remove the spark plug from the cylinder. Pour one ounce of oil into the cylinder. Slowly pull the recoil-start grip so that the oil will protect the cylinder. Install a new spark plug in the cylinder. Pull starter handle slowly a few times to distribute oil. Pull recoil slowly until resistance is felt. This will close the cylinder valves.

WARNING

DO NOT attach spark plug wire to spark plug when storing unit.

4.Clean tiller. Remove all dirt, leaves, debris, grease, etc. from the tiller - including cylinder cooling fans, recoil starter cover holes, under fuel tank, and under muffler.

5.Check the tiller for worn or damaged parts. Have damaged parts replaced if necessary.

6.Tighten any loose hardware.

7.Apply lubrication as directed in Maintenance section.

8.Put the unit in a building that has good ventilation.

9.Cover the tiller with a breathing material.
