invalidate the warranty.
STORAGE
After every work stint, clean the machine thoroughly to remove all dust and debris, and repair or
replace any faulty parts.
The machine must be stored in a dry place away from the elements.
LONG PERIODS OF DISUSE
If you are not going to use the machine for a period of more than 2-3 months,
we recommend you do a few things before putting it away. This will make it easier when you want
to use the machine again and will also prevent permanent damage to the engine.
Storage
Before putting the machine away:
- Empty the fuel tank.
- Start the engine and run it idle until it comes to a halt, so that it uses up all the fuel that is left in
the carburetor.
- Wait for the engine to cool down and remove the spark plug
- Pour a teaspoon of fresh oil into the spark plug hole.
- Pull the starter rope several times to deliver oil to the cylinder.
- Replace the spark plug with the piston in the dead end upper position (visible from the spark
plug slot when the piston is at maximum stroke).
