Immediately
prepare your tiller for storage
at the end of the season or if the unit will
not be used for 30 days or more.
_CAUTION"
Never store the tiller with
gasoline in the tank inside a building
where fumes may reach an open flame or
spark.
Allow the engine to cool before
storing in any enclosure.
TILLER
1. Clean entire tiller (See "CLEANING"
in
the Maintenance
section of this
manual).
2.
Inspect and replace belts, if necessary
(See belt replacement
instructions
in
the Service and Adjustments
section
of this manual).
3. Lubricate
as shown in the Mainte-
nance section of this manual.
4. Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws
are securely fastened.
Inspect moving
parts for damage, breakage and wear.
Replace if necessary.
5. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint
surfaces;
sand lightly before painting.
ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important to prevent
gum deposits from forming in essential
fuel system parts such as the carburetor,
fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during
storage. Also, alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol)
can attract moisture which
leads to separation
and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage.
1. Drain the fuel tank.
2. Start the engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor
are empty.
• Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage
may occur.
• Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE:
Fuel stabilizer
is an acceptable
alternative
in minimizing
the formation of
fuel gum deposits
during storage.
Add
stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or
storage container.
Always follow the mix
ratio found on stabilizer container.
Run
engine at least 10 minutes after adding
stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach
the carburetor.
Do not drain the gas tank
and carburetor
if using fuel stabilizer.
ENGINEOIL
Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace
with clean oil. (See "ENGINE"
in the
Maintenance
section of this manual).
CYLINDER
1. Remove spark plug.
2. Pour 1 ounce (29 ml) of oil through
spark plug hole into cylinder.
3. Pull starter handle slowly several
times to distribute oil.
4. Replace with new spark plug.
OTHER
• Do not store gasoline from one season
to another.
• Replace your gasoline can if your can
starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in your
gasoline
will cause problems.
• If possible,
store your unit indoors and
cover it to give protection from dust and
dirt.
• Cover your unit with a suitable protec-
tive cover that does not retain moisture.
Do not use plastic.
Plastic cannot
breathe which allows condensation
to
form and will cause your unit to rust.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover tiller while
engine and exhaust areas are still warm.
