We recommend carrying out the following operations:
1. General cleaning of the vehicle.
2. With the engine off and the piston at the bottom dead centre position, remove the

engine start pedal 3 or 4 times letting the engine perform a few revolutions slowly,
then replace the spark plug.
3. Drain off all the vehicle fuel; spread antirust grease on the unpainted metal parts;
keep the wheels off the ground, by resting the chassis on two wooden wedges.
4. For the battery, follow the procedures described in the «Battery» section.
5. Drain the petrol from the carburettor float chamber through the bleed cap.

Cleaning the vehicle
Use a low pressure jet of water to soften the caked dirt and mud deposited on the
painted surfaces. Once softened, mud and dirt should be removed with a soft sponge
for bodywork soaked in water and "shampoo" (2-4% of shampoo in water). Then rinse
abundantly with water, and dry with a shammy cloth. For the outside of the engine,
use petroleum, a brush and clean cloths. Petrol can damage paintwork. Remember
that any polishing with silicone wax must always be preceded by washing.
CAUTION
DETERGENTS POLLUTE WATER. THEREFORE THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE
WASHED IN AN AREA EQUIPPED FOR THE COLLECTION AND PURIFICATION
OF THE LIQUIDS USED.
