Maintenance (continued)

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.

Long Term Storage

lines and carburetor with the fuel

drained from the fuel tank. To do so:

Prime the primer bulb until no more 1.

fuel is passing through.

Start and run the engine until it stops 2.

running.

Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the engine 3.

will no longer start.

Remove the spark plug and pour

■

about 7 mL (1/4 oz.) 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.

IMPORTANT!

All stored fuels should be stabilized with a

fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL.

extended periods can cause hard start-

ing, and could also lead to increased

service and maintenance costs.

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 reas-

semble the element.
