original plates from your VIKING specialist
dealer. If a component is replaced with a
new component, ensure that the new
component is provided with the same
stickers.
Only perform work on the cutting unit when
wearing thick work gloves and exercising
extreme care.
Ensure that all nuts, pins and screws,
especially all the cutting unit screws, are
securely tightened, so that the machine is
in a safe operating condition.
Check the entire machine for wear or
damage on a regular basis, particularly
before extended periods when the
machine is not in use (e.g. over winter).
For safety reasons, worn or damaged
parts must be replaced immediately to
ensure that the machine is always in a safe
operating condition.
Never alter the basic setting of the engine
or run at excessive engine speeds.
Components or guards that are removed
for maintenance operations must be
properly reinstalled immediately.
4.8 Storage for prolonged periods
without operation
Allow the engine to cool before storing the
machine in an enclosed space.
Store the machine with empty fuel tank
and open tank ventilation screw (GB 460
C) as well as the fuel reserve in a lockable
and well-ventilated room.
Ensure that the machine is protected from
unauthorised use (e.g. by children).
54
Never store the machine with petrol in the
tank inside a building. The resulting petrol
fumes could come into contact with naked
flames or sparks and could be ignited.
If the tank has to be emptied
(e.g. immobilisation before the winter
break), the fuel tank must be emptied out
of doors only (empty the tank by running
the engine out of doors, for example).
Thoroughly clean the machine before
storage (e.g. winter break).
Only store the machine with the spark plug
socket disconnected.
Store the machine in good operational
condition.
Only store the garden shredder with either
the feed chute or the blade cover fitted.
Risk of injury due to exposed blades.
4.9 Disposal
Waste products such as used engine oil or
fuel, used lubricants, filters, batteries and
similar wearing parts can be harmful to
people, animals and the environment, and
must consequently be disposed of
properly.
Consult your recycling centre or your
specialist dealer for information on the
proper disposal of waste products. VIKING
recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
Ensure that old machines are properly
disposed of. Render the machine
unusable prior to disposal. In order to
prevent accidents, remove the ignition
lead, empty the fuel tank and drain the
engine oil in particular.
