Engine Storage Procedure

When not operating your Kawasaki engine more
than 30 days, add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank and run
engine for 5 minutes then drain the fuel tank.
After draining the fuel tank, run the engine at low
idle until engine stalls.
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions.
Drain fuel before storing the equipment for
extended periods.
Drain gasoline in a well ventilated area
away from any source of flame or sparks,
including any appliances with a pilot light.
Store gasoline in an approved container in
safe location.
WARNING
Gasoline is a toxic substance. Dispose
of gasoline properly. Contact your local
authorities for approved disposal methods.

STORAGE

●
Remove the spark plugs and pour approx 1-2 mL
(1/2 teaspoon) of engine oil through the spark
plug holes then screw the spark plugs in after
cranking the engine a few times. Slowly crank the
engine until you feel the compression then leave
it there. This traps the air inside the cylinders and
prevents rust inside the engine.
●
Wipe the body with oily cloth.
●
Wrap the engine with plastic sheeting and store it
in a dry place.
●
Change engine oil for next use after period of
storage. (Refer to MAINTENANCE chapter for Oil
Change section).
