Storage

DRAIN FLUIDS BEFORE LONG TERM STORAGE

Drain fuel outdoors away from any ignition sources.

Use only approved fuel containers.

Never store equipment with gasoline in the tank inside of a

closed building where fumes may reach an open flame or spark.

Allow the engine to cool before storing in any building.

Prepare for Storage

Follow the steps below to prepare your plate compactor for storage.

Read your engine manual for detailed instructions on preparing the

engine for storage.

1. Run the engine until the fuel is consumed.

2. Allow the engine to cool down. While the engine is still warm,

drain the oil by detaching the flexible oil line hose, tipping the

plate compactor slightly on its side and draining the oil into an

approved container (see Figure 15).

3. Detach the spark plug wire.

4. For more compact storage, fold the upper handlebars assembly

down (see Figure 16).

For Lifting and Transporting

1. Always allow the engine to cool down before transporting or

before short term storage. Use the handles on the front and rear

of the plate compactor to lift (see Figure 15).
