15. Storage
m Attention! Do not store the device with the grass col-
lection basket (17) full. In hot weather, the grass begins to
ferment under heat. There is a risk of fire.
Store the device and its accessories in a dark, dry and frost-
free place that is inaccessible to children. The optimum stor-
age temperature lies between 5 and 30 ˚C.
Store the device in its original packaging.
Cover the device to protect it from dust or moisture. Store the
operating manual with the device.
• Clean and maintain the device before storage.
• Never store the lawnmower with petrol in the fuel tank in-
side a building in which fuel vapours may come into contact
with naked flames or sparks.
• Allow the engine to cool down before you put the lawn-
mower in an enclosed area.
• In the event of prolonged storage, empty the fuel tank with
a petrol suction pump (not included in the scope of delivery)
(see 16.4.).
• In order to avoid fire hazards, keep the engine, exhaust
pipe and the area around the fuel tank free of grass, leaves
and leaking grease (oil).
15.1 Preparing the lawnmower for long-term
storage
m WARNING! Do not remove the petrol in enclosed spac-
