STORAGE AND INACTIVITY FOR LONG PERIODS
1. If you intend to not use the machine
for a long period (more than 1
month), disconnect the battery
cables and follow the instructions in
the engine instruction manual.
2. Empty the fuel tank by
disconnecting the tube situated at
the inlet of the fuel filter and follow
the instructions in the engine
manual.
Carefully remove any dry grass cuttings which may have collected
around the engine or silencer to prevent their catching re the next time the machine is
used! Put the machine away in a dry, sheltered place and preferably covered with a
cloth.
The battery must be kept in a cool and dry place. Before a long
storage period (more than 1 month), always charge the battery, and then recharge
before using again. The next time the machine is used, check that there are no fuel
leaks from the tubes, fuel shut off valve or carburetor.
The blades are sharp, risk of a serious injury! Before carrying out any
inspection, cleaning, and repair operations on the cutting parts, stop the engine and
take out the ignition key. Next, disconnect the spark plug wire and keep the cap
away from the plug to prevent accidental starting.
