7. Storage Instructions
CAUTION: The engine must have completely cooled
down before storing the machine.
CAUTION: Never store the machine or fuel container
inside where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light
(e.g. furnace, water heater, space heater, clothes dryer etc.).
CAUTION: Never store the machine in a confined
area with bad ventilation and gasoline in the fuel tank.
Gasoline fumes could reach open flames, sparks,
cigarettes etc.
To avoid engine freezing and problems starting the engine,
you must leave the engine running for 5-10 minutes after
your work has been completed. This helps ensure all
moisture disappears that would otherwise cause starting
issues.
Follow these recommended tips if the snow blower will be
stored for more than thirty days:
• Empty the fuel tank with a suction pump.
• Start the engine and let it run until it stops due to lack of
fuel.

• Change the engine oil if it has not been done for 3 months.
• Remove the safety key and store it properly.
• Clean the whole machine thoroughly.
• Lubricate wheel axles.
• Inspect the machine for damage and complete repairs if
necessary.
• Touch up any paint damage to provide rust protection to
the metal surfaces.
• Store the machine indoors in a well-ventilated area if
possible.
Removing from Storage
• Check your engine before use. If the fuel was drained
during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh
gasoline.
• If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be sure
it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and
deteriorates over time, causing hard starting and clogging.
• If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation,
the engine will smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.
• Run the snow blower without a load to ensure all
systems are functioning properly.

moving parts have come to a complete stop. Disconnect spark plug wire and ground it against the engine to prevent
unintended starting. Always wear safety glasses during operation or while performing any adjustments or repairs.
