How to Prepare for Storage
WARNING
Never store the tiller indoors with fuel in the fuel tank . Never store in an enclosed, poorly ventilated area where fumes
could reach an open flame, a spark or a pilot light as on a furnace, water heater or clothes dryer. Allow engine to cool
before storing unit .
WARNING
Do not remove gasoline while inside a building, near a fire, or while you smoke. Gasoline fumes can cause an explosion
or a fire.
NOTE: A yearly checkup or tune-up at an authorized service center will make sure that the tiller will provide maximum
performance for the next season .
When the tiller is put in storage for thirty days or more, the following steps should be followed to make sure the tiller is in good
condition the next season . To prevent fuel gum deposits and corrosion in the unit's carburetor and fuel system, it is highly
recommended to use a fuel additive/stabilizer formulated for ethanol fuels. Follow the stabilizer manufacturer's instructions. Run
the engine for at least 5 minutes after adding stabilizer .
1 . Let the engine run until it is out of gasoline . Remove the carburetor screw from bowl and drain fuel . Tilt unit slightly to
remove all fuel . Replace screw .

that the oil will protect the cylinder . Install a new spark plug in the cylinder . Pull starter handle slowly a few times to
distribute oil . Pull recoil slowly until resistance is felt . This will close the cylinder valves .
