Storage 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. 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. Add the stabilizer and run the engine for a minimum of 10 minutes. 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, sparks, or pilot lights in for example boilers, hot water tanks and clothes dryers. • Repair paint damages to prevent corrosion. • Examine the product for worn or damaged parts and tighten loose screws and nuts. • Remove the battery. Clean it, charge it, and keep it cool during storage. • Replace the engine oil, and discard the waste oil. • Empty the fuel tank. Start the engine and run it until there is no remaining fuel. Note: Do not empty the fuel tank if a stabilizer has been added. • Remove the plugs and put about a tablespoon of engine oil into each cylinder. Manually turn the engine shaft to apply the oil and put the plugs back on. • Lubricate all grease nipples, joints and axles. • Keep the product in a clean and dry area and put a cover on it for more protection.
