STORAGE / TRANSPORT PROCEDURES
CAUTION:
Never place any type of storage cover on the plate
compactor while it is still hot.
If the plate compactor is being stored for short periods of time (30 – 60 days), add stabilized fuel to
the fuel tank until full. NOTE: Filling the tank reduces the amount of air in the tank and helps
reduce deterioration of fuel. Run the engine for 2 – 3 minutes allowing stabilized fuel mixture to
circulate through the carburetor.
When transporting or storing the plate compactor for extended periods of time:
 Drain the fuel tank (see “Draining the Fuel Tank” in the “Maintenance” section).

Disconnect the spark plug cap from the spark plug.

Do not obstruct any ventilation openings.

Keep the plate compactor in a cool dry area.
