STORAGE OF A MACHINE
WARNING: If these steps are not taken, plaque will form in the carburetor
and cause difficult starting or permanent damage due to storage.
1. Perform all general maintenance recommended in the maintenance section of
your user manual.
2. Clean the exterior of the machine, drive axle, protective shield, and nylon cutting head.
3. Drain fuel from the fuel tank.
4. After fuel is drained, start the machine.

an oil burner, water heater, etc.
