This ensures that all fuel has been drained from
the carburetor.

Reinstall the spark plug.
Note: Remove the spark plug and drain all of
the oil from the cylinder before
attempting to start the trimmer after

loose or damaged parts. Repair or replace
damaged parts and tighten loose screws, nuts or
bolts.
The unit is now ready for storage.
