FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important to prevent
gum deposits
from forming
in essential
fuel system
parts such as 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.
ENGINE OIL
Drain oil (with engine
warm)
and replace
with clean engine
oil. (See "ENGINE"
in
the Maintenance
section
of this manual).
CYLINDER
1. Remove
spark plug.
2, Pour one ounce (29 ml) of oil through
spark plug hole into cylinder.
3. Pull starter handle
slowly a few times
to distribute oil.
4.
Replace

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 protect
it 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 mower
while
engine
and exhaust
areas are still warm.
A CAUTION:
Never store the lawn mower
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.
