ZI-RAM80C
Storage
If you store the tamping rammer for longer than 30 days:
Drain fuel from fuel tank, fuel pipe.
Remove spark plug, drip some drops of oil into the plug hole into the cylinder housing. Fasten the
spark plug back again and push the recoil starter (Attention Main switch off) with the effect that
the engine cock moves up and down and the oil gets distributed along the combustion chamber
walls.
Cover the tamping rammer with a clean cloth and store it in a clean and dry place.
Disposal
DO NOT DISPOSE your ZI-RAM80C in residual waste. Contact your local authorities
about the available disposal possibilities. Drain the remaining petrol, motor oil and
gear oil before disposing the machine and dispose these separately in an
environmentally sound way. A non proper disposal of the machine can lead to
contamination of soil and water which in turn will affect you in the long run as it
gets through soil and water into the food chain.
