HELPFUL TIPS & SUGGESTIONS
Removal From Storage
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.
Position the equipment so the engine is level. Tilting can cause oil
leakage.
Check your engine as described in the BEFORE OPERATION chapter of
this manual.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the
engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.
