CLEANING AND STORAGE

Storage:

After each mowing season or if the lawnmower is not going to be used for 30 days or more, it is
recommended that
1. The engine oil should be changed.
2. All fuel should be removed.
Run the engine until it is warm and drain the engine oil and refill with the correct grade to the
required level.
The fuel shut off valve should be closed off (where fitted) then remove all fuel from the carburettor,
fuel line and tank to prevent the formation of gum like deposits The lawnmower should then be
started up and run until all of the fuel left in the system is used.
Remove the spark plug and pour 15 cc of engine oil into the cylinder, crank slowly to distribute
the oil and replace the spark plug. Store the lawnmower in a clean dry area away from direct
sunlight, as this will have an aging effect on the plastic catcher assembly and other plastic
component.
Always store the mower on a flat, level surface.
