3. Take out the spark plug, pour about 15-20ml (.5 - .68 oz.) of clean engine oil into the cylinder,
step down on the kick lever several times so as to have machine oil distributed inside the
engine and finally fit the spark plug back on.
4. Wash the vehicle clean, wipe it dry and apply an even coat of wax to the painted surface and a
coat of anti-rust oil on the chrome-plated surfaces.
5. Inflate the tires as required and put the vehicle up on wooden blocks with the two wheels
clearing the ground.
6. Put the vehicle in a shady and cool place free from humidity and direct sunlight and cover it
properly (not with plastic or other painted materials).
If there is a garage, store it within.
RESUMPTION OF SERVICE AFTER STORAGE
1. Remove the covering and remove the wooden blocks used in storing the vehicle. Change the
engine oil if the vehicle has been out of service for over 4 months.
2. Drain off the remaining atomized anti-rust oil from the fuel tank, followed by filling it with fresh
gasoline therein.
3. Prior to driving, all the required check-ups must be made. It is better to drive it at a low speed
in an open area to test its performance before normal operation.
