9. Transport and storage
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
Transport
• To avoid any spillage of fuel and oil is it important that the engine is placed horizontal
during transport.
Storage
• Let the engine run till it stops.
• Loosen the drain screw on the carburettor and drain the remaining fuel.
• Reinstall the drain screw and mount the fuel tube.
• Keep the old fuel in an approved container.
• Remove the sparkplug and poor 1 tablespoon of oil into the cylinder, mount the sparkplug.
• Do not mount the sparkplug cap. Pull the sparking cord, until there is resistance. This will
close the valves and protect them from rust.
• Protect the oil with a thin layer of oil to avoid rust.
