Cleaning
Keep handles free of oil, so you always have a secure
hold.
Clean the equipment as required with a damp cloth and,
if necessary, mild washing up liquid.
Important!
Always pull out the spark boot plug each time before
carrying out any cleaning.
Never immerse the equipment in water or other liquids
in order to clean it.
Store the petrol multi garden tool in a safe and dry place
out of the reach of children.
Storage
Important: Never put the equipment into storage for lon-
ger than 30 days without carrying out the following 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 re-
quire expensive repairs.
Slowly remove the fuel tank cap to release any pressure
that may have formed in the tank. Carefully empty the
tank.
To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start the engine
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 2-stroke engine oil into the combus-
tion 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 gas-fi
red hot water boiler, a gas-fi red dryer, etc.
Putting the equipment back into operation
Remove the spark plug (see section Change and clean
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.
