Storage
WARNING
Never store the unit (with fuel) in an enclosed,
unventilated structure. Fuel vapors can travel
to an ignition source (such as a furnace, water
heater, etc.) and cause an explosion. Fuel vapor
is also toxic to humans and animals.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel in Tank
•
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, or
other appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition
sources because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Equipment
Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake, and remove the
starter insert.
Store battery in a cool, dry place and fully charge about
once a month. If the battery is left in the unit, disconnect the
negative cable.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale
fuel causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel
system or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel
fresh, use Briggs & Stratton
Treatment & Stabilizer, available wherever Briggs &
Stratton genuine service parts are sold.
For engines equipped with a FRESH START
Briggs & Stratton FRESH START
centrate cartridge.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a
fuel stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the
engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout
the fuel system before storage.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
