Clean the mower after each use and, if storing for a prolonged 

period, drain down the fuel in the tank. Remove the spark plug 

and put a few drops of oil into the cylinder before pulling the 

starter a couple of times to distribute the oil evenly. Replace the 

spark plug.

 If you need to tilt the mower while cleaning always tip

            it backwards, towards the handles, do not tip it on its side as this  

                      will cause oil to enter the carburettor or exhaust.
