TER HEATER, CLOTHES DRYER, ETC.
Drain the carburetor by pressing upward on the bowl
drain(SeeIII.33),locatedbelowthecarburetorcover.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL) is an accept-
able alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum
deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in the
fueltankorstoragecontainer.Alwaysfollow themixratio
found on stabilizer container. Run the engine at least 10
minutes after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to
reach the carburetor. Do not drain the gas tank and
carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.
NOTE: Immediately prepare your snow thrower for stor-
age at the end of the season or if the unit will not be used
for 30 days or more.

If possible, store your snow thrower indoors and
cover it to give protection from dust and dirt.
Cover the bare metal parts of the blower housing
auger and the impeller with rust preventative, such
as sprayable lubricant.
● If the machine must be stored outdoors, block up the
snow thrower to be sure the entire machine is off the
ground.

Service Center is a good way to insure that your snow
thrower will provide maximum performance for the next
season.
● Cover the snow thrower with a suitable protective
cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use
plastic.
