Storage
1. Engines stored over 30 days need to be
protected or drained of fuel to prevent gum from
forming in fuel system or on essential carburetor
parts.
If fuel tank contains oxygenated or reformulated
gasoline (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an
ether), run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
If fuel tank contains gasoline, either run engine until
it stops from lack of fuel, or add a gasoline additive to
the gas in tank.
2. While engine is still warm, change oil.
3. Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 oz (15ml)
of engine oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and
crank slowly to distribute oil.
4. Clean dirt and chaff from cylinder, cylinder head
fins, blower housing and rotating screen areas.
5. Store in a clean, dry area. Do not store in same
area as a stove, furnace, water heater, or other
appliance that uses a pilot light or has a device
that can create a spark.
When storing fuel or equipment with fuel in
tank:
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water
heaters, or other appliances that have a pilot
light or other ignition source because they can
ignite vapors.
When Transporting Equipment:
Gasoline Engine: Transport with fuel tank
EMPTY or with fuel shut-off valve OFF.
Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) /Natural Gas
Engine: Transport with fuel cylinder empty
and valve closed or tank disconnected.
