FUEL FILTER
Inside the fuel tank there is a filter which prevents
impurities from entering the engine. The filter should
be replaced once a year by your Retailer.
Our machines have been designed to operate over a

proper machine care and regular cleaning.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the

Storage
Storage
Important: Never put the equipment into storage for
longer than 30 days without carrying out the follow-
ing steps.
Storing the equipment
If you intend to store the equipment for longer than 30
days, the equipment must be prepared accordingly.
Otherwise the fuel still remaining in the carburetor
will evaporate and leave a rubbery sediment. This
can cause problems when starting up the equipment
and may require expensive repairs.
Slowly remove the fuel tank cap to release any pres-
sure that may have formed in the tank. Carefully
empty the tank.
Empty the tank only outdoors or in wellventilated
areas. Make sure that no fuel enters soil (environ-
mental Protection). Use suitable base.
To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start the en-
gine and let it run until the equipment stops.
Leave the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
Remove the spark plug (see section Change and
clean the spark plug).
Add one teaspoon of 2stroke engine oil into the com-
bustion chamber. Slowly pull the starter cord several
times to apply a layer of oil to all internal components.
Fit the spark plug again.
Note: Store the equipment in a dry place and far
away from possible ignition sources such as an oven,
a gasfi red hot water boiler, a gasfi red dryer, etc.
Putting the equipment back into operation
Remove the spark plug
Quickly tug on the starter cord to remove excess oil
from the combustion chamber.
Clean the spark plug and check that the electrode
gap is correct, or insert a new spark plug with the
correct electrode gap.
Prepare the equipment for operation.
