3.2 Storage
If storing the unit for a long period of time (more than 30 days) carry
out the following:
3.2.1 Drain fuel from the tank.
3.2.2 Start the engine and run it until all the fuel in the carburetor is used.
3.2.3 Remove the spark plug and pour 30 ml (1 oz.) of clean SAE 30W
engine oil into the cylinder through the spark plug opening.
3.2.4 Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute oil in the engine.
3.2.5 Reinstall the spark plug.
3.3 General Air Filter Maintenance
Inspect the air filter daily. Severe damage to the engine components
can occur if the engine is operated with a damaged element. This is
especially important when operating in extremely dusty conditions; dirt
and sand, if allowed to enter the engine, can quickly destroy the
cylinder wall and piston.
NOTICE: Never operate the engine without an air filter. Damage to the
engine will occur.
