11 STORAGE

The lawn tractor should be parked where it is pro-
tected against the effects of weather, especially
moisture, rain and lengthy exposure to direct sun-
light.
Never store the lawn tractor inside a building
when its fuel tank contains fuel, if there is poten-
tial for fuel vapours to come into contact with na-
ked flames or sparks. Only park the lawn tractor
in rooms that are suitable for the storage of motor
vehicles.
When storing the lawn tractor for long periods,
such as over winter, it should not have its fuel
tank filled if possible. The fuel can evaporate.
Before long-term storage, the fuel should be
drained from the tank and the carburettor in order
to avoid any build-up of deposits, which could re-
sult in problems when starting. Please contact
your specialist workshop for advice.
