stabilizer to prevent fuel from becoming unusable during extended storage period.
 While engine is still warm, drain the oil from the engine. Refill with fresh oil of the
recommended grade.

have not drained the fuel system, follow all safety instructions and storage precautions in
this manual to prevent the possibility of fire due to the ignition of petrol fumes. Remember,
petrol fumes can travel to distant sources of ignition and ignite, causing explosions and fire.

store it in a safe place before storing the cultivator unit. Be sure to plug the sparking plug
hole to prevent foreign material from entering.
