Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL) is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum
deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline
in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix
ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at
least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow itto

ENGINE:

Remove any clippings, dirt, or chaff from exterior of engine.

GENERAL
Just as your automobile needs professional mechanical maintenance
from time to time, so does your Craftsman engine. Replacement of
the spark plug and air cleaner is made necessary by NORMAL use.
Professional Air-Cooled Engine Service is as close as your nearest
Sears Roebuck and Co. (or Sears Canada, Inc.) Service Center.
A yearly check-up or tune-up by Sears is a good idea to avoid
breakdowns or delay..,
do it at the end of the season, then you're
ready for the next. We even prepare it for storage for you.

Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related
part under this
ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at a Sears,

The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the
determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in fact defective,
provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a Sears, Roebuck and
Co. Authorized Service Outlet

Sears. Roebuck and Co. shall be liable for damages to other original
engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a
