Engine Oil
1.Change the engine oil (see page 55).
2.Remove the spark plug (see page 59).
3.Pour a teaspoon (5 cm
3
) of clean engine oil into the cylinder.
4.Pull the starter rope several times to distribute the oil in the cylinder.
5.Reinstall the spark plug (see page 60).
6.Slowly pull the starter grip until resistance is felt. At this point, the
piston is coming up on its compression stroke and both the intake
and exhaust valves are closed. Storing the engine in this position will
help to protect it from internal corrosion. Return the starter grip
gently.
Battery
Charge the battery before storing the generator (see page 65).
