8. TRANSPORTATION. STORAGE. TROUBLESHOOTING

Transport
Empty the fuel tank with a vacuum pump before transporting the tractor. Start the engine and let it run until it
has used up all the remaining gas.
• Close the fuel tank cap tightly.
• Allow the engine to cool before transporting.
• Use ramps that cover the entire width of the tractor for loading and unloading into a car for transport.
•
Be careful when loading or unloading the tractor into a trailer or truck. The tractor must be manually pushed
onto the ramp(s) when loaded or unloaded.
Storage
WARNING: Never store the tractor with fuel in an enclosed, unventilated area. Fuel vapors can reach an
ignition source (such as a furnace, water heater, etc.) and cause an explosion.
Store away from ovens, stoves, water heaters, or other appliances that have lights or other ignition sources,
as they may ignite fuel vapors.
