When lubricating cylinder bore, fuel 
may spray from spark plug hole. To 

prevent serious injury from fuel fires, follow these 
instructions:

1.

Carefully disconnect spark plug wire and keep it away 
from spark plug. See Figures 53 and 54.

• Keep the disconnected spark plug wire 

securely away from metal parts where arcing 
could occur. 

• Carefully attach the spark plug wire to the 

grounding post, if provided. 

• Disconnect battery at negative terminal first, if 

engine is equipped with a DC electric starter.

• Turn all engine switches to “OFF” position. 

• Remove ignition key, if provided.

2.

Remove spark plug. 

3.

Squirt 1oz. (30 ml) of clean engine oil into spark plug 
hole.

4.

Cover spark plug hole with rag to prevent fuel from 
spraying from spark plug hole when starter rope is 
pulled.

5.

Grasp starter cord handle:

a. Pull starter cord handle out slowly using a full arm 

stroke. 

b. Repeat once. (This will distribute oil throughout the 

cylinder to prevent corrosion during storage.)

c. Proceed to Step 7.

6.

Push starter button or turn ignition switch key to 
“START” position. Immediately release starter button or 
turn ignition switch key to “OFF” position. (This will dis-
tribute oil throughout the cylinder to prevent corrosion 
during storage.)

7.

Remove rag covering spark plug hole.

8.

Install spark plug.

9.

Carefully disconnect spark plug wire from grounding 
post, if provided. See Figure 53.

10. Connect spark plug wire to spark plug before 

attempting to start engine. See Figure 54.

Change oil if NOT changed within the last 3 months. 
See "B. Changing Oil" instructions on page 17.

See equipment manufacturer’s instructions for proper 
battery storage if machine is equipped with a battery.
