Preparing the Machine for
Storage
1. On the last refueling of the year, add fuel stabilizer
(such as Toro Premium Fuel Treatment) to the fuel.
2. Dispose of any unused fuel properly. Recycle it
according to local codes, or use it in your automobile.
Note: Old fuel in the fuel tank is the leading cause of
hard starting. Do not store fuel without stabilizer more
than 30 days, and do not store stabilized fuel more than
90 days.
3. Run the machine until the engine shuts off from
running out of fuel.
4. Start the engine again.
5. Allow the engine to run until it shuts off. When you
can no longer start the engine, it is sufficiently dry.

the electric-start button (electric-start model only).
7. Remove the spark plug, add 30 ml (1 oz) of engine
oil through the spark-plug hole, and pull the starter
rope slowly several times to distribute oil throughout
the cylinder to prevent cylinder corrosion during the
off-season.
8. Loosely install the spark plug.
9. Tighten all nuts, bolts, and screws.
10. Electric-start model only: Charge the battery for 24
hours, then unplug the battery charger an store the

every 90 days. Refer to
