Never store the

If the machine is to be inoperative for a period longer than
30 days, the following procedures are recommended:

WARNING: Never store the machine or

fuel container indoors where there is an
open flame, spark or pilot light such as
on water heater, furnace, clothes dryer
or other gas appliance.

IMPORTANT: Fuel left in the fuel tank during warm
weather deteriorates and will cause serious starting
problems. To prevent gum deposits from forming inside
the engine’s carburetor and causing possible malfunction
of the engine, the fuel system must be either completely
emptied, or the gasoline must be treated with a stabilizer
to prevent deterioration.
1. If using a fuel stabilizer:

• Read the product manufacturer’s instructions and

recommendations.

• Add to clean, fresh gasoline the correct amount of

stabizer for the capacity of the fuel system.

• Fill the fuel tank with treated fuel and run engine for

2-3 minutes to get stabilized fuel into the carburetor.

2. If emptying the fuel system:
• Do not drain fuel when the engine is hot. Allow the

engine adequate time to cool. Drain fuel into an
approved container outdoors, away from open flame.

• Drain any large volume of fuel from the tank by

disconnecting the fuel line from the in-line fuel filter
near the engine.

• Reconnect the fuel line and run the engine until

it starts to falter, then use the choke to keep the
engine running until all fuel in the carburetor has
been exhausted.

• Again disconnect the fuel line and drain any

remaining gasoline from the system.

WARNING: Drain fuel only into an
approved container outdoors, away
from an open flame. Allow engine to
cool. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars,
pipes, and other sources of ignition
prior to draining fuel.

Remove the spark plug and pour one (1) ounce of
engine oil through the spark plug hole into the cylinder.
Crank the engine several times to distribute the oil.
Replace the spark plug.
Clean and lubricate the tractor as instructed in
