ENGINE
8.
Recap the spark plug according to Engine Instruc
tions supplied with your tractor. Replace the spark
plug if required.
NEVER STORE PRODUCT IN AN ENCLOSED AREA
WHERE FUEL FUMES MAY REACH AN OPEN FLAME,
SPARK, OR PILOT OF FURNACE, ETC. DRAIN FUEL
OUTDOORS, AWAY FROM OPEN FLAME, AND USE
ONLY AN APPROVED FUEL CONTAINER.
If product is not to be used for thirty days or more,
prepare as follows:
1.
Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine
stops due to lack of fuel.
2.
Be sure all fuel is removed from fuel tank (as well
as any
contamination). The carburetor and fuel
tank
must
be
clean
and
dry to
prevent gum
deposits
from
forming
and
the
engine
from
malfunctioning.
3.
If gasahol has been used, complete the steps
above, then put a small amount of regular gasoline
into the fuel tank and repeat the steps.

tion of this manual.
