Perform all necessary repairs and thoroughly clean the vehicle. 2. Remove the spark plug and pour approximately one ounce of Premium 4 oil into the cylinder. Operate the starter for a few seconds and reinstall the spark plug. 3. Remove the battery. Store it in a cool, dry place out of the sun. 4. Lubricate suspension pivot points, lower steering post and rear axle fittings. 5. Drain the engine side cover (RANGER 4X4, 6X6). 6. Block the vehicle so all tires are suspended off the ground. 7. Spray oil on all unpainted metal surfaces to prevent rusting. Avoid getting oil on rubber parts or in the brakes. 8. Lubricate all cables. 9. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe and air cleaner inlet to prevent moisture or small animals from entering. 10. Cover the vehicle with a canvas cover. Do not use plastic or coated materials since they do not allow ventilation for the vehicle. 94
