15Section 6 — Maintenance

Transporting Your Engine

WARNING! NEVER transport this engine inside of

another vehicle or in any enclosed space if there is

any gasoline in the tank. Fuel vapor or spilled fuel

may ignite.

WARNING ! If there is fuel in the fuel tank, close the

fuel valve, if equipped, and transport the engine

upright in an open vehicle, such as an open trailer or

open bed of a pickup truck.

If you DO NOT have an open vehicle and have to transport

the engine upright in a closed vehicle, follow these steps for

emptying the fuel tank before transporting:

1. Empty fuel tank by using a commercially available suction

device designed for use with gasoline.

WARNING! DO NOT pour fuel from the engine or

siphon fuel by mouth.

2. Drain fuel into an approved red gasoline container, being

careful to avoid spilling.

3. Run the engine until remaining fuel is consumed.

WARNING! NEVER leave the engine unattended

when it is running and NEVER run the engine in an

enclosed area.

Storing Your Engine

Short-Term/Seasonal Storage

Clean Engine

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least half an

hour before cleaning.

Before servicing the engine, remove the carburetor cover and/or

blower housing. Discard the dirt and debris from the following

areas:

• Cooling Fins

• Air Intake Screen or Recoil Starter/Flywheel

Guard Areas

• Spark Plug Connection

• Levers

• Linkage Area

• Guards

• Carburetor

• Head

Removing debris will insure adequate cooling, correct engine

speed and reduce the risk of fire.

NOTE: Do not spray engine with water to clean because water

could contaminate fuel. Using a garden hose or pressure washing

equipment can also force water into the air cleaner or muffler

opening. Water in the air cleaner will soak the paper element,

and water that passes through the element or muffler can enter

the cylinder, causing damage.

WARNING! Accumulation of debris around muffler

could cause a fire. Inspect and clean before every

use.

Fuel Storage

WARNING! NEVER store engine with fuel in the

fuel tank inside a building with potential sources of

ignition such as hot water heater, space heater,

clothes dryer, electric motor, etc. Failure to do so

may result in an explosion and result in death or

serious injury.

NOTE: If engine fuel stored in the gas tank and/or an approved

gas container is to be unused without gasoline stabilizer for more

than 15-30 days, prepare it for short-term/seasonal storage. See

Fuel Treatment later in this section.

NOTE: If engine fuel is to be stored for more than one season,

without gasoline stabilizer, it will gradually deteriorate. Also, if

it is stored in the engine’s gas tank without gasoline stabilizer it

is likely that your carburetor will have gum deposits, a clogged

fuel system and will VOID YOUR WARRANTY. Prepare the fuel for

extended storage.

Fuel System

To avoid stale fuel and carburetor problems, treat the fuel system

in the following manner:

NOTE: Always follow mix ratio found on the stabilizer container.

Failure to do so may result in equipment damage.

NOTE: It is NOT necessary to drain stabilized gas from carburetor.

Fuel Treatment

1. Add a gasoline stabilizer such as STA-B IL® according to

manufacturer’s instructions.

2. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding the stabilizer to

allow it to reach the carburetor.

WARNING! NEVER store the engine with the fuel in

the fuel tank inside a building with potential sources

of ignition such as a hot water heater, space heater,

clothes dryer, electric motor, etc.

NOTE: Instead of using a fuel preservative/stabilizer, you can

empty the fuel tank as described next in Extended Storage -

Draining the Fuel.

Extended Storage

Draining the Fuel

NOTE: Clean debris from the engine before draining fuel from

the carburetor.

NOTE: If you have prepared your fuel for short-term storage it

is NOT necessary to drain fuel that contains stabilizer from your

carburetor.

16 Section 6— Maintenance

WARNING! To avoid severe injury or death, DO

NOT pour fuel from engine or siphon fuel by mouth.

1. To prevent serious injury from fuel fires, empty fuel tank

by running engine until it stops from lack of fuel. DO NOT

attempt to pour fuel from engine.

2. Run the engine while waiting until the remaining fuel is

consumed.

WARNING! NEVER leave the engine unattended

when it is running and NEVER run the engine in an

enclosed area.

3. Begin servicing the cylinder bore as per the following

instructions.

Oil Cylinder Bore

WARNING! When lubricating cylinder bore, fuel

may spray from the spark plug hole. To prevent

serious injury from fuel fires, follow these

instructions:

1. Carefully disconnect the spark plug wire and keep it away

from the spark plug.

• Keep the disconnected spark plug wire securely

away from the metal parts where arcing could

occur.

• Carefully attach the spark plug wire to the

grounding post, if provided.

• Disconnect the battery at the negative terminal

first, if the engine is equipped with a D.C.

electric starter.

• Turn off all the engine switches.

• Remove the ignition key, if provided.

2. Remove the spark plug.

3. Squirt 1oz. (30ml) of clean engine oil into the spark plug

hole.

4. Cover the spark plug hole with a rag to prevent fuel from

spraying from the spark plug hole when the starter rope is

pulled.

NOTE: for engines equipped with a recoil starter, proceed

to Step 5. For engines equipped with electric starters,

proceed to Step 6.

5. Grasp the starter cord handle:

• Pull the starter cord handle out slowly using a

full arm stroke.

• Repeat once. This will distribute the oil

throughout the cylinder to prevent corrosion

during storage.

• Proceed to Step 7.

6. Push starter button or turn ignition switch key to “START”:

position. Immediately releases the starter button or turn

the ignition switch key to the “OFF” position. This will

distribute the oil throughout the cylinder to prevent

corrosion during storage.

7. Remove the rag from the spark plug hole.

8. Install the spark plug.

9. Carefully disconnect the spark plug wire from the

grounding post, if provided.

10. Connect the spark plug wire plug wire to the spark plug.

Oil

Change the oil if NOT changed within the last 3 months. See

Checking and Changing the Oil earlier in this section.

Off-Season Storage

CAUTION: Failure to use a fuel stabilizing additive

such as STA-BIL® or completely run the engine until

it’s out of fuel before off-season storage may result

in damage to your engine’s carburetor. Subsequent

damage would not be covered under the

manufacturer’s warranty.

Gasoline that will be stored longer than 30 days needs to be

pre-treated upon purchase with fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL®

to prevent gum and varnish from forming in the engines fuel and

intake system. Improper fuel storage can result in hard starting,

no starting, stalling and poor performance. If the gasoline in

your engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to have

the carburetor, and other fuel system components, serviced or

replaced.

1. Remove all fuel from tank by running engine until it stops

from lack of fuel.

WARNING! Never leave engine unattended while

it is running.

2. Change the oil. See Changing the Oil earlier in this section.

3. Remove the spark plug and pour approximately a ⁄-ounce

of engine oil into the cylinder. Replace spark plug and

crank it slowly to distribute oil.

4. Clean debris from around the engine and the muffler.

Touch up any damaged paint, and coat other areas that

may rust with a light film of oil.

5. Store in a clean, dry and well ventilated area away from any

appliance that operates with a flame or pilot light, such

as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any

area with a spark producing electric motor, or where power

tools are operated.

6. If possible, also avoid storage areas with high humidity,

because that promotes rust and corrosion.

7. Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or

oil leakage.
