Prepare the product for storage at the end of the
season, and before more than 30 days of storage. If
you keep fuel in the fuel tank for 30 days or more,
tacky particles can cause blockage in the carburetor.
This has a negative effect on the engine function.
To prevent tacky particles during storage, add a
stabilizer. If alkylate gasoline is used, stabilizer is not
necessary. If you use standard gasoline, do not
change to alkylate gasoline. This can cause
sensitive rubber parts to become hard. Add stabilizer
to the fuel in the tank or in the container used for
storage. Always use the mixing ratios given by the
manufacturer. Run the engine for a minimum of 10
minutes after you add the stabilizer until it flows into
the carburetor.
WARNING: Do not keep the product with
fuel in the tank in an indoor location or in
locations with bad airflow. Risk of fire if
fuel fumes come near open flames,
