use or damage.

LONG TERM STORAGE
If you plan on storing the unit for an extended time, use the
following storage procedure:
1.
Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a container with the same
2-cycle fuel mixture. Do not use fuel that has been stored for
more than 60 days. Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in
accordance to Federal, State and Local regulations.

Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This ensures
that all fuel has been drained from the carburetor.

Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and put 1 oz.
(30 ml) of any high quality motor oil or 2-cycle oil into the
cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute
the oil.

Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil from the
cylinder before attempting
