The
WARRANTY
does not cover fuel system damage or engine
performance problems resulting from neglected storage preparation.
ENGINE OIL
Change the engine oil (page 12).
ENGINE CYLINDER
If the mower is to be stored for more
than 3 months, remove the spark plug
(page 13). Pour 5 ~ 10 cc of clean
engine oil into the cylinder [1]. Pull the
starter rope several times to distribute
the oil in the cylinder. Reinstall the
spark plug.
Pull the starter rope slowly until
resistance is felt, then return the starter grip gently. This will close the
valves so moisture cannot enter the engine cylinder.
PLACING IN STORAGE
Since your mower will be stored with petrol in the fuel tank and
carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of petrol vapor ignition.
Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any appliance that
operates with a flame, 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.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that
promotes rust and corrosion.
Place the mower with its wheels on a level surface. Tilting can cause
fuel or oil leakage. The handlebar can be folded for compact storage,
shown below.
With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the mower to keep
out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some
materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous
cover will trap moisture around the mower, promoting rust and
corrosion.
Handlebar Folding
1. Remove the grass catcher. You can place it on top of the engine,
with the catcher opening to the front.
2. Support and hold the handlebar.
3. Unlock the handlebar adjust knobs
1
and fold the handlebar
forward
2
into the storage position.
NOTICE
Do not allow the control cables
to become caught, pinched, or
kinked while folding the handlebar down into the storage position.
The cables or engine control system may be damaged causing the
lawnmower to not function properly.
REMOVING FROM STORAGE
Check your mower as described in
PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
(
.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the
engine will smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.
FRAME AND ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER
Record the frame and engine serial numbers (page 3) in the space

making technical or warranty inquires.
