wood surface. DO NOT STORE THE BATTERY ON A
CONCRETE SURFACE.
Storage
1. Thoroughly clean the unit by removing all grass
clippings and debris.
2. Perform maintenance and lubrication as required.
3. Drain the fuel from the fuel tank (unless using a fuel
stabilizer - Refer to "Fuel System").

remain clean during storage.

The Battery".

Fuel System

Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system
or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use
Briggs & Stratton Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment
& Stabilizer, available wherever Briggs & Stratton genuine
service parts are sold.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine
for two (2) minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the
fuel system before storage.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
Engine Adjustments And Repairs
Engine adjustments and/or repairs should be performed by
an authorized dealer.
Rider Adjustments And Repairs
