Storage Safety
•
Shut off the machine and wait for all moving parts
to stop before you leave the operator's position.
Disconnect the spark-plug wire, keep it away from
the plug to prevent accidental starting, and allow
the machine to cool before adjusting, fueling,
unclogging, servicing, cleaning, or storing the
machine.

pump; never siphon the fuel. If you must drain the
fuel tank, do it outdoors.

Always refer to the Operator's Manual for
important details if the machine is to be stored for
an extended period.
