10. STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION
10.1.
Winter storage.
NEVER store an engine with fuel in the tank indoors or in poorly ventilated spaces where fuel
vapour can come in contact with open flame, sparks or a pilot light such as in a boiler, hot water
tank, clothing drier, etc. handle the fuel with caution. It is very flammable and careless use can
cause serious damage to person and property. Drain the fuel into an approved container
outdoors and far away from open flame. NEVER use petrol for cleaning, use a de-greaser and
warm water instead.
10.1.1.
At the end of the season, the machine should be readied for storage (or if it will
not be in use for longer than 30 days). Fuel allowed to stand for long periods of
time (30 days or more) can leave sticky residues that can cause the carburetor and
engine to clog up and reduce their function.
10.1.2.
Fuel stabilizers are an acceptable option as to reduce sticky residues during
storage. Add stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the storage container. Always
use the mixing ratios specified by the manufacturer of the stabilizer. Run the
engine for at least 10 minutes after adding the stabilizer so that it reaches the
carburetor. DO NOT empty the fuel tank and the carburetor if you have added
stabilizer.
10.2.
Storage.
10.2.1.
Before storing the machine you MUST allow the engine to fully cool down. NEVER
store the machine near any naked flame or any other sources of ignition.
