ARNING:
Never store your
snow thrower indoors or in
an enclosed,
poorly venti-
lated area.
If gasoline remains in the
tank, fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light from a fur-
nace, water heater, clothes dryer,
cigarette, etc.
To prevent damage (if snow thrower is
not used for more than 30 days) follow
the steps below.
SNOW THROWER
1. Thoroughly clean the snow thrower.
2.
Lubricate all lubrication points. See
the Maintenance
section.
3.
Be sure that all nuts, bolts and
screws are securely fastened.
In-
spect all visible moving parts for
damage, breakage and wear. Re-
place if necessary.
4.
Touch up all rusted or chipped paint
surfaces; sand lightly before paint-
ing.
5. Cover the bare metal parts of the
blower housing auger and the im-
peller with rust preventative,
such
as a spray lubricant.
NOTE:
A yearly checkup or tune-up by
a Sears service center is a good way of
ensuring that your snow thrower will
provide maximum
performance
for the
next season.
ENGINE
Gasoline must be removed or treated to
prevent gum deposits from forming in
the fuel tank, filter, hose, and carburetor
during storage. Also, during storage al-
cohol blended gasoline that uses etha-
nol or methanol (sometimes
called
gasohol) attracts water. It acts on the
gasoline to form acids which damage
the engine.
1. Run the engine until the fuel tank is
empty and the engine stops.
2.
If you do not remove the gasoline,
use fuel stabilizer supplied with unit
or purchase Craftsman
Fuel Stabi-
lizer No. 3550. Add fuel stabilizer to
any gasoline left in the tank to mini-
mize gum deposits and acids. If the
fuel tank is almost empty, mix stabi-
lizer with fresh gasoline in a sepa-
rate container and add some to the
fuel tank.
3. Always follow the instructions on the
stabilizer container. After the stabi-
lizer is added to the fuel tank, run
the engine at least ten minutes to
allow the mixture to reach the car-
buretor.
4.
Change the engine oi!.
5.
Lubricate the piston/cylinder
area.
First, remove the spark plug and
squirt a few drops of clean engine
oil into the spark plug hole. Next,
cover the spark plug hole with a rag
to absorb oil spray. Then, pull two or
three times on the recoil starter rope
to rotate the engine. Finally, install
the spark plug and attach the spark
plug wire.
OTHER
1.
If possible, store your snow thrower
indoors and cover it to give protec-
tion from dust and dirt.
2.
If the snow thrower must be stored
outdoors, put the snow thrower on
blocks to raise it off of the ground.
3.
Cover the snow thrower with a suit-
able protective cover that does not
retain moisture.
Do not use plastic.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover snow
thrower while engine and exhaust areas
are still warm.
