Do not tilt the engine to avoid spilling fuel. Spilled fuel or fuel vapour may ignite.
STORAGE
If the engine is not to be used for a long period of time ensure it is stored correctly.
Make sure the storage area is dry and free of dust.
PREPARE FOR STORAGE
Disconnect the spark plug. Put a spoonful of fresh engine oil into the cylinder and rotate
the engine to distribute the oil evenly. Replace the spark plug.
Pull the starting rope until you feel resistance and then keep pulling so as to align the
arrow of the starting sleeve with the hole of the starter: This will close both the inlet and
outlet valves to help prevent the engine rusting inside.
Cover the engine to keep it free of dust.
