a. Remove the fuel tube and drain the fuel tank.

c. Retighten the drain bolt, connect the fuel tube and turn the fuel valve

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area.
3. Change the engine oil (page 16).
4. Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon of clean engine oil
into the cylinder. Crank the engine several revolutions to distribute the
oil, then reinstall the spark plug.
5. Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. This closes the valves
and will help to protect the engine from internal corrosion.
