NOTICE:
The use of a pump protector is required after each use
and before storing to prevent cold weather and seal
damage during storage. Failure to use pump protector
will void your warranty.

as described in the engine manual.
 Disconnect spark plug wire and remove the spark plug.

lubricant through the spark plug hole into the combustion
chamber.
 Leaving the spark plug out, pull the starter cord two or
three times to coat the inside of the cylinder wall.
 Inspect the spark plug and clean or replace, as necessary.
 Reinstall the spark plug, but leave the spark plug wire
disconnected.
