Long Term Storage

 

Strap and Hanger

Debris Shield

ENGLISH

Whenever the unit will not be used for 30 days or longer, use the following proce- dures to prepare it for storage:

■Clean external parts thoroughly.

■Drain all the fuel from the carburetor and the fuel tank.

IMPORTANT!

All stored fuels should be stabilized with a fuel stabilizer such as

STA-BIL®.

Remove remaining fuel from the fuel lines and carburetor with the fuel drained from the fuel tank.

1.Prime the primer bulb until no more fuel is passing through.

2.Start and run the engine until it stops running.

3.Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the engine will no longer start.

CAUTION!

Gasoline stored in the carburetor for extended periods can cause hard starting, and could also lead to increased service and maintenance costs.

■Remove the spark plug and pour about 1/4 ounce of 2-cycle mixing oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole. Slowly pull the recoil starter 2 or 3 times so oil will evenly coat the interior of the engine. Reinstall the spark plug.

■Before storing the unit, repair or replace any worn or damaged parts.

■Remove the air cleaner element from the carburetor and clean it thoroughly with soap and water, let dry and reassemble the element.

■Store the unit in a clean, dust-free area.

Although a strap and hanger is not required for use with a Shindaiwa PB2500 PowerBroom, it is recom- mended to reduce operator fatigue during extended periods of operation.

Make sure all hooks and adjusting devices are secure. Adjust the harness shoulder strap so the shoulder pad rests comfortably on the off-side shoulder. See Figure 31.

A plastic debris shield is available from your Shindaiwa dealer as a useful option to your PowerBroom. The shield helps prevent broadcasting debris when large volumes of material are forced over the top of the drum during operation.
