Storage
• Be careful not to hit or cut the fuel tank, or fuel lines, when the unit is
placed on the ground.
• Do not let the tool fall, or it may be damaged and become unsafe.
• When you finish working, clean the unit thoroughly.
• Inspect the entire unit and tubes for damage, including loose or missing
components.
• Store the unit away from direct sunlight.
• Do not store in a nylon bag as this can encourage the formation of
mould.
• Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit and keep the air
vents free from obstructions. Do not use water or a hose to clean the
unit.
• Ensure that fuel and oil is stored in a safe place, away from heat, direct
sunlight, any source of ignition, and out of reach of children.
Storage for an extended period:
Whenever the machine is out of use for an extended period of time,
proceed as follows:
• Give the unit an overall cleaning and a thorough check.
• Empty the fuel tank completely, then clean the carburettor and lines by
running the tool until it stops from lack of fuel.
• Protect all metal engine parts from corrosion by coating them with oil.
• Remove the spark plug, put several drops of oil into the cylinder through
the spark plug hole and then pull the recoil starter 2 to 3 times in order
to distribute the oil evenly. Replace the spark plug and spark plug lead.
• Clean the air filter as described in the air filter section.

several times while the spark plug is removed.
