WARNING: Never store the engine, with fuel  in the tank,
indoors or in a poor ventilated  enclosure where fuel
fumes could reach an open flame, spark  or pilot light
as on a furnace, water heater, clothes  dryer, etc.
Handle gasoline carefully. It is highly flammable  and
careless use could result in serious fire  damage to your
person and/or property.
CAUTION: Do not allow grease or oil to contact the
rubber friction wheel or the disc drive plate. If the
disc drive plate or friction wheel come in contact with
grease or oil, damage to the rubber friction wheel will
result.
NOTICE: If grease or oil comes into contact with the disc drive
plate or friction wheel, make sure to clean plate and wheel
thoroughly with an alcohol base solvent.
Drain fuel into approved containers outdoors, away  from
open flame.

extended period of time.
If the snow thrower will be  stored for thirty (30) days or more at the end  of
the snow season, the following steps  are recommended to prepare your
snowthrower for storage.

deposits from forming in the tank, filter,  hose, and carburetor
during storage.

Remove gasoline, by running engine until tank is empty and engine
stops. If you do not want to remove the gasoline, add fuel stabilizer
to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize gum deposits and acids.
If the tank is almost empty, mix stabilizer with fresh gasoline in a
separate container and add some of the mixture to the tank. ALWAYS
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ON STABILIZER CONTAINER. THEN RUN
ENGINE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES AFTER STABILIZER IS ADDED TO
ALLOW MIXTURE TO REACH CARBURETOR. STORE

before storage or at the beginning of each season, using a clean rag
dipped in motor oil. Do NOT use grease.

You can help keep your engine (4-cycles only) in good operating
condition by changing oil before storage.
Lubricate the piston/cylinder area. This can be done by first removing
the spark plug and squirting clean engine oil into the spark plug hole.
Then cover the spark plug hole with a rag to absorb oil spray. Next,
rotate the engine by pulling the starter two or three times. Finally,
reinstall spark plug and attach spark plug wire.
