Removing the hoes:
Fold open the securing clip of folding
retainer (3) and remove the folding
retainer. Remove the hoe assembly (4).
Remove the protection rings (5) and
store safely – do not lose!
12.2 Cleaning the machine
Maintenance interval:
After each use
Clean the entire machine thoroughly
after each use. Care of the machine will
protect it against damage and extend its
service life.
Before cleaning, allow the machine to
cool down completely, detach the spark
plug socket and wear long sleeves and
thick gloves during cleaning work on the
gearbox and hoes.
Cleaning position:
Fold out the transport chassis. (Ö 11.4)
Move the upper handlebar to the
uppermost position. (Ö 11.2)
Move the tiller onto firm and level
ground.
Tip the machine backwards until the
handlebar rests on the ground.
Notes on cleaning:
Remove the dirt and accumulated
deposits using a brush, a damp cloth or
a stick – do not use aggressive cleaning
agents. VIKING recommends the use of
a special cleaner (e.g. STIHL special
cleaner).
Never spray water onto the handlebar,
engine components, seals or bearing
points. This would result in expensive
repairs.
Engine:
Remove dirt from the cooling ribs, fan
wheel, area around the air filter,
exhaust etc. to ensure that the engine is
adequately cooled.
Gearbox housing, chassis and hoes
can be cleaned using a water jet or
high-pressure cleaner.

12.5 Storage and periods of
inoperation (winter break)
Store the tiller in the normal position
(transport chassis folded out). For space-
saving storage, fold the handlebar
forwards as shown.
Store the tiller in a dry and locked place
that is generally free of dust. Make sure
that the machine is kept out of the reach of
children.
Any faults must be completely remedied
prior to storage. The machine must always
be in a safe operating condition. Keep all
nuts, pins and bolts tightly fastened,
replace danger signs and warnings on the

Avoid damage to the machine!
When using a high-pressure
cleaner, maintain a distance of at
least 1 m and never direct the
water jet directly at bearing points,
drive shaft or seals – especially the
seal between the gearbox housing
and guard plate.
Danger of tipping over!
The tiller can tip over forwards if the
hoes are in an unfavourable
position. For this reason, always
ensure stability of the tiller.
If necessary, turn the hoes slightly
in order to reduce top-heaviness.
Alternatively, support the tiller in the
area of the carrying handle during
storage.
