NOTE
○
As an alternative to draining the fuel system, a fuel
stabilizer, such as STA-BIL, may be used. Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for use.
WARNING
Fuel stabilizers may contain poisonous sub-
stances. Heed the manufacturer’s warnings
for use.
•
Remove the spark plugs and spray fogging oil di-
rectly into each cylinder. Turn the engine over sev-
eral times with the ignition switch key to coat the
cylinder walls. Install the spark plugs.
WARNING
An air/oil mist may be forcibly ejected from
the spark plug holes and could get into your
eyes. Do not lean over the engine when per-
forming this procedure. If you do get oil in
your eyes, wash them immediately with lib-
eral amounts of clean, fresh water and con-
sult a physician as soon as possible.
•
Put boards under the front and rear wheels to keep
dampness away from the tire rubber.
•
Spray oil on all unpainted metal surfaces to pre-
vent rusting. Avoid getting oil on rubber parts or in
the brakes.
•
Lubricate all the cables as indicated in the General
Lubrication section in the “MAINTENANCE AND
ADJUSTMENT” chapter.
•
Remove the battery, and store it where it will not
be exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, or freezing
temperatures. During storage it should be given a
slow charge (one ampere or less) about once a
month.
NOTICE
Keep the battery well charged during cold
weather so that the electrolyte does not
freeze and crack open the battery. The more
discharged a battery becomes,
the more
easily it freezes.
Never remove the sealing strip, or the battery
can be damaged.
•
Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe to prevent
moisture or small animals from entering.
•
Put a cover over the vehicle to keep dust and dirt
from collecting on it.
Removal from Storage:
DANGER
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, a
colorless, odorless poisonous gas.
Inhal-
ing carbon monoxide can cause serious
brain injury or death.
DO NOT run the en-
gine in enclosed areas.
Operate only in a
well-ventilated area.
•
Remove the plastic bags from the exhaust pipe.
•
Clean the terminals of the battery, charge the bat-
tery if necessary, and install it in the vehicle.
