LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more
than 30 days, you must prepare the engine and pump
for long term storage.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended
fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
Protect
Fuel System
Fuel Stabilizer:
Follow these instructions if storing fuel more than 30 days.
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, use
Briggs & Stratton FRESH START
TM
fuel stabilizer
plus, or FRESH START
TM
continuous fuel preserver
(concentrated liquid cartridge), or FRESH START
TM
preservative & stabilizer (granular).
If fuel stabilizer is used, you do not need to drain fuel
prior to storage. If the FRESH START
TM
continuous
fuel preserver (concentrated
liquid cartridge) is used,
there is no need to drain fuel prior to storage as long
as the cartridge contains stabilizer for the storage
season.
•
Run engine outdoors for several minutes to be sure
treated fuel has replaced untreated fuel in
carburetor.
If fuel preserver is not used, then always remove all
fuel from tank and run engine until it stops from lack of
fuel.
Change
Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase.
Refill with recommended
grade. See "Changing
Engine Oil" on page 15.
