3.6 OFF SEASON STORAGE

Thoroughly clean all external surfaces and tines before storing the Tiller. The Tiller may be stored on end, however, the following steps must be taken:

1.Drain gasoline from fuel system and drain the engine crankcase oil (refer to engine manual for details).

2.After standing the Tiller on end, check the plugs in the chain case for leakage. After extended period, some grease may seep thru upper bearing races.

3.Remove both wheels and grease wheel shafts. Reinstall wheels. Remove both tines and grease tine shafts. Reinstall tines. Grease these shafts when tiller is stored for long periods of time to prevent rust buildup. Rust buildup will cause wheels and tines difficult to remove.

4.At the start of the new season, replenish engine crank-case oil and add gasoline to the fuel tank after returning the Tiller to its wheels.

5.Before starting, move the ENGINE CONTROL to STOP and pull rope starter slowly several times. If excessive resistance is felt, remove the spark plug and pull rope starter rapidly to spin the engine and clear oil from the cylinder. Clean and reinstall spark plug before attempting to start the engine.

IR5003B, NIR5003B specifications

The Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B are advanced infrared thermometers that represent the pinnacle of modern temperature measurement technology. These devices have been engineered for precision, durability, and user-friendliness, making them ideal for both professional and amateur applications.

One of the key features of the IR5003B is its laser-guided targeting system. This allows users to accurately measure the temperature of specific surfaces or objects from a distance, ensuring that measurements are taken from exactly the right spot. The dual laser pointers aid in visualizing the measurement area, enhancing accuracy while reducing the chances of error that can occur with wider measurement fields.

The NIR5003B model further extends its capabilities by incorporating advanced non-contact temperature measurement technology. This feature is particularly valuable in applications where direct contact with the subject is not possible or practical, such as moving objects or hazardous materials. Users can obtain quick and accurate temperature readings without the risk of contamination or damage to sensitive surfaces.

Both models boast a wide temperature range, typically spanning from -50°C to 500°C, catering to a variety of use cases, from monitoring food safety to industrial applications. The high-resolution display provides easy visibility of readings, which can be crucial in fast-paced environments where quick decisions are necessary.

Another standout characteristic of the Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B is their response time. These thermometers are designed to gather data swiftly, allowing users to track temperature changes in real time. This is particularly useful in processes that require consistent monitoring, such as HVAC systems, engine maintenance, and food preparation.

Additionally, these devices offer features like adjustable emissivity settings, enabling users to tailor the device to the properties of different materials for improved accuracy. The ergonomic design ensures that the devices are comfortable to hold and operate, reducing user fatigue during prolonged use.

In summary, the Snapper IR5003B and NIR5003B are versatile infrared thermometers that combine advanced technology and user-friendly features. With laser targeting, non-contact measurement capabilities, a broad temperature range, swift response times, and adjustable emissivity settings, they are designed to meet the demands of various industries efficiently and effectively. Whether for professional use or home applications, these thermometers are invaluable tools for anyone needing precise temperature measurements.
