CLEANING AND STORAGE

Cleaning

Frequent, thorough cleaning of your machine
will not only enhance its appearance but will
improve its general performance and extend
the useful life of many components.
1. Before cleaning the machine.
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to
prevent water entry. A plastic bag and strong
rubber band may be used.
b. Assure the spark plug and all filler caps
are correctly installed.
2. If the engine case is extremely greasy, ap-
ply degreaser with a paintbrush. Do not ap-
ply degreaser to the wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a
garden hose. Use only sufficient pressure to
do the job.
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been
hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm water
and mild, detergent-type soap. An old tooth-
brush or bottle brush is handy for hard-to-
get-at places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with
clean water and dry all surfaces w ith a
chamois, clean towel or cloth.
6. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the cover pliable and glossy.
7. Automotive type wax may be applied to all
pained and chrome plated surfaces. Avoid
combination cleaner-waxes. Many contain
abrasives which may mar the paint or protec-
tive finish. When finished, start the engine
and let it idle for several minutes.
