The lawnmower can be stored for short periods of time (less than 15 days) without
performing any storage maintenance.
Before placing the lawnmower into storage always carry out the following:
• Allow the engine to fully cool.
• Ensure the grass bag is empty.
• Clean all debris under the mower deck.
• Store the lawnmower on flat and level surface with the mower upright.
• Store in a safe place which is not accessible by children or people who are not familiar
with operation.
If the lawnmower is to be placed into storage for more than 15 days, storage maintenance
must be performed on the lawnmower. If the following steps are not carried out, when you
next operate the lawnmower it may not start correctly and may need to be serviced.
2a Empty the petrol tank with a petrol suction pump if available.
2b Start the engine and let it run until any remaining petrol has been used up.
2c Change the oil at the end of every season. To do so, remove the used engine oil from
a warm engine and refill with fresh oil.
2d Remove the spark plug from the cylinder head. Fill the cylinder with approx. 20 ml of
oil from an oil can. Slowly pull back the starter handle, which will bathe the cylinder wall
with oil. Screw the spark plug back in.
2e Clean the cooling fins of the cylinder and the housing.
2f Be sure to clean the entire machine to protect the paint.
2g Store the machine in a well-ventilated place.
CAUTION! Do not empty the petrol tank in enclosed areas, near fire or when smoking.
Petrol fumes can cause explosions and fire.

using a petrol suction pump.

engine must remain dry. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaner or
petroleum ether.
