flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace,
water heater, clothes dryer, or other gas
appliance.
If unit is to be stored over 30 days, prepare for storage
as follows:

Remove gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to
prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts
and causing possible malfunction of engine.
