CLEANING
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always stop the engine and allow it to cool
before cleaning or maintaining the unit.
At the end of each working session, use a small brush to clean the outside of the unit. Do not
use strong detergents. Household cleaners that contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and
solvents such as kerosene, can damage plastic. Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth. Carefully
make sure that there are no damaged parts, replacing any faulty parts.
STORAGE

• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Lock up the unit to prevent unauthorized use or damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
• To suspend the attachment from a hook, install the hanger cap onto the attachment. Make sure
the release button is securely locked into one of the holes on the hanger cap.
Short-term Storage (1-2 weeks)
