Drain off the gasoline from the fuel tank, and store in a
suitable container. This will help prevent deposits from
forming in the fuel system.
Turn the fuel switch to OPEN and loosen the
carburetor drain bolt. Take off the spark plug cap and
revolve the engine 3 or 4 times, by pulling the recoil
handle, to fully discharge the gasoline from the fuel
lines.
Turn the fuel switch to CLOSED and tighten the drain
bolt of the carburetor.
Change oil while engine is still warm from operation.
Remove the spark plug, and pour a tablespoon of
clean engine oil (10~20ml) into the cylinder. Revolve
the engine several times by pulling on the recoil start
to distribute the oil. Reinstall the spark plug. Pull the
starter grip slowly until you feel resistance. At this
point, the piston is coming up on its compression
stroke and both the intake and exhaust valves are
closed. This position helps to protect the engine from
internal corrosion.
