TRANSPORTANDSTORAGE
The following steps should
be
taken
to
prepare
your
lawn mower
for
storage.
Keep
all equipment safe during transportation
to
prevent damage
and accidents.
For storage, keep equipment
in
a lockable area away
from
children
and persons
that
are
not
approved. Do
not
store next
to
corrosive
materials, such
as
fertilizer.
For storage, keep the product
and
equipment
in
a
dry
and frost-
proof
area.
When
loading
or
moving the product, do
not
go more than the
maximum recommended operation
angle
of
15 degrees.
Empty the
fuel tank by operating the product until the tank
is
empty.

NOTE
Old
fuel
in
the
fuel
tank
is
the
leading
cause
of
hard
starting.
Do
not
store
fuel
without
fuel
stabilizer
more
than
30
days,
and
do
not
store
stabilized
fuel
more
than
90
days.
Remove the spark plug, pour a tablespoon (5-10
cc)
of
clean engine
oil into the cylinder,
and
pull the
starter
rope slowly several times
to
distribute oil throughout the cylinder
to
prevent cylinder corrosion
during
the
off-season. Loosely install the spark plug.
Drain
the
engine oil.
Clean
the product.
Tighten
bolts and nuts.
Replace
or
repair damaged components.
Touch up
all rusted
or
damaged paint surfaces.
Sand
lightly before
painting.
Use the correct protective cover on the product
to
keep
it
dry.
Do
not
use
plastic because
it
lets condensation collect
and
causes
corrosion on the product.
