OFF-SEASON STORAGE
NOTE
Engines to be stored over 30 days
should be completely drained of
fuel to prevent gum deposits form­
ing on essential carburetor parts,
fuel filters, fuel lines and tank.
1. Remove all fuel from fuel tank. Run the engine
until it stops from lack of fuel. The small
amount of fuel that remains in the sump of the
tank should then be removed by absorbing it
with a clean, dry cloth.
2. While engine is still warm, drain oil from
crankcase. Refill the fresh oil.

into cylinder and crank slowly to distribute oil.
To prevent accidental starting, DO NOT
replace the spark plug.

head fins and blower housing.
5. Clean all grass from underside of deck.
