Storing Your Cultivator / Edger
•
Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect for any
loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace

bolts.
•
Wipe equipment with a oiled rag to prevent rust.
•
Never store the unit with fuel in the tank where
fumes may reach an open flame or spark.

on unit) to avoid tip over.
Engine
If the unit will be stored for longer than 60 days:
•
Clean engine by removing dirt and debris with a
cloth or brush from cooling fins, air intake screen,
levers, and linkage. This will help ensure
adequate cooling engine speed.
•
Drain all gasoline from the gas tank into a
container and dispose in accordance with federal,
state, and local regulations.
•
Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls.
This ensures that all gasoline has been drained
from the carburetor.
•
Allow the engine to cool and remove the spark
plug and put 1 oz. (30ml) of high quality motor oil
into the cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to
distribute the oil and reinstall the spark plug.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil
from the cylinder before attempting to start the unit
after storage.
•
When changing oil, refer to the Maintenance
section. Dispose of the oil in accordance with
federal, state, and local regulations.
•
Store unit in a clean, dry area. Do not store next
to corrosive materials such as fertilizer.
