Prepareyourchipper-shredderfor storage at the end
ofthe season or ifthe unitwillnot be used for 30 days
or more.
WARNING: Never store machine with fuel
inthe fuel tank inside of buildingwhere
fumes may reach an open flame or spark,
or where ignitionsources are present such
as hot water and space heaters, furnaces,
clothes dryers, stoves, electric motors, etc.
A yearly check-up by your localSears service center
isa good way to make certain yourchipper-shredder
willprovide maximum performance for the next
season,
Chipper-Shredder
• Clean the chipper-shredder thoroughly.
• Wipe unitwith an oiled rag toprevent rust (use a
light oil or silicone).
Engine
IMPORTANT: Itis importantto prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts such as
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during
storage. Also, experience indicatesthat alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage.
• Drain the fuel tank.
• Start the engine and let itrun untilthe fuel lines
and carburetor are empty.
• Drain carburetor.
• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage
may occur.
Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer isan acceptable alternative in
minimizing the formation offuel gum deposits during
storage.
• Add stabilizer to gasoline infuel tank or storage
container.
• Always follow the mix ratiofound on stabilizer "
container.
• Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding
stabilizer toallow the stabilizer to reach the
carburetor.
• Do not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using
fuel stabilizer. Drain all the oilfrom the
crankcase (this shouldbe done after the engine
has been operated and is stillwarm) and refill
the crankcase with fresh oil.
• Ifyou have drained the fuel tank, protect the
insideof the engine as follows.
• Remove spark plug, pour approximately 1/2
ounce(approximately one tablespoon) ofengine
oilintocylinder and crank slowlyto distribute oil.
• Replace spark plug.
Other
Do not store gasoline from one season to
another,
Replace your gasoline can ifyour can startsto
rust. Rust and/or dirtin your gasoline willcause
problems. Store unit ina clean, dry area. Do not
stere nextto corrosive materials, such as
fertilizer.
