• After a period of time in storage, battery
may require recharging.
• To help prevent corrosion and power
leakage during long periods of storage,
battery cables should be disconnected
and battery cleaned thoroughly (see '3"O
CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS" in
the Maintenance section of this manual).

ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important
to prevent
gum deposits
from forming
in essential
fuel
system
parts such as carburetor, 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.
° Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine
and letting
it run until the fuel lines and
carburetor
are empty.
o 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
empty the gas tank and carburetor
if using
fuel stabilizer.
