Storage; Disposal - Husqvarna 362M18 Operator's Manual

WARNING
•
When draining fuel, be careful not to spill it. If
fuel is spilt, wipe off thoroughly. In addition,
be sure to close the storage container cap
tightly.
IMPORTANT
• If fuel is left in the engine for protracted periods,
the inside of the carburetor may become
clogged and cause engine malfunction (faulty
starting and insufficient output).
• During storage, slightly loosen the cap of the
chemical fluid tank. If screwed too tightly, the
gasket may become distorted.
On completion of all work procedures, when not
planning to use again for a protracted period carry
out the following pre-storage care, to prevent
trouble caused by time-lapse changes.
When disposing your machine, fuel or oil for the
machine, be sure to allow your local regulations.

Storage

1. Clean the chemical fluid tank and nozzle (see
page 11).
2. Remove dirt from the sprayer, inspect it for any
damage or looseness, and, if any abnormality is
found, correct it thoroughly in preparation for the
next time you use the unit.
3. Drain the fuel tank.
4. Start the engine, and leave it in idling condition
until all the fuel inside the carburetor is spent
and the engine comes to a natural stop.
5. Remove the spark plug and put a few drops (1
to 2 cc) of 2-cycle oil inside the engine. After
pulling the starter rope 2 or 3 times, return the
spark plugs to their original position and stop in
compressed position.
6. After oiling the throttle lever and other metal
parts with anti-corrosive oil, cover the sprayer
and store indoors in a low-humidity location.
