Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage.

With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the engine to keep out dust. A hot engine and
exhaust system can ignite or melt some materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A
nonporous cover will trap moisture around the engine, promoting rust and corrosion.

11.2

Removal from storage

Check your engine as described in the BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS section of this manual.
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline. If you keep a
container of gasoline for refuelling, be sure it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes
and deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at
start-up. This is normal.

11.3

Transporting

Keep the engine level when transporting to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage. Turn the fuel
valve to the OFF position
