Immediately
prepare
your tiller for storage
at the end of the season
or if the unit will
not be used for 30 days or more.
_,Warning:
Never store the tiller with gas-
oline in the tank inside
a building
where
fumes
may reach
an open flame or spark.
Allow
the engine
to cool before
storing
in
any enclosure.
TILLER
1.
Clean
entire tiller (See "CLEANING"
in
the Maintenance
section
of this man-
ual).
2.
Inspect
and replace
belts, if necessary
(See belt replacement
instructions
in
the Service
and Adjustments
section
of
this manual).
3.
Lubricate
as shown
in the Maintenance
section
of this manual.
4.
Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws
are securely
fastened.

ENGINE
FUEL
SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important
to prevent
gum deposits
from forming
in essential
fuel system
parts such as the carburetor,
fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during
storage.
Also, alcohol
blended
fuels (called
gasohol
or using ethanol
or methanol)
can attract
moisture
which
leads to separation
and
formation
of acids during
storage.
Acidic
gas can damage
the fuel system
of an
engine
while in storage.
• Empty
the fuel tank by starting
the en-
gine and letting
it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor
are empty.
• Never use engine
or carburetor
cleaner
products
in the fuel tank or permanent
damage
may occur.
• Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE:
Fuel stabilizer
is an acceptable
alternative
in minimizing
the formation
of
fuel gum deposits
during
storage.
Add
stabilizer
to gasoline
in fuel tank or stor-
age container.
Always
follow the mix ratio
found
on stabilizer
container.
Run engine
at least 10 minutes
after adding
stabilizer
to allow the stabilizer
to reach the carbu-
retor.
Do not empty
the gas tank and
carburetor
if using fuel stabilizer.
ENGINE
OIL
Drain oil (with engine
warm)
and replace
with clean
oil. (See "ENGINE"
in the Main-
tenance
section
of this manual).
CYLINDER
1. Remove
spark
plug.
2.
Pour 1 ounce
(29 ml) of oil through
spark
plug hole into cylinder.
3.
Pull starter
handle
slowly
several
times
to distribute
oil.
4.
Replace
with new spark plug.
OTHER
• Do not store gasoline
from one season
to another.
• Replace
your gasoline
can if your can
starts to rust.
Rust and/or
dirt in your
gasoline
will cause
problems.
• If possible,
store your unit indoors
and
cover it to give protection
from dust and
dirt.
• Cover your unit with a suitable
protective
cover that does not retain moisture.
Do
not use plastic.
Plastic
cannot
breathe
which
allows condensation
to form and
will cause your unit to rust.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover tiller while en-
gine and exhaust
areas are still warm.
