Maintenance
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a
fuel stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the
engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout
the fuel system. The engine and fuel can then be stored
up to 24 months.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of
a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended
to maintain freshness.
Hearing Protection Recommended.
