10. STORAGE
Never store the machine with petrol in the fuel tank in a confined area with poor ventilation. Petrol fumes
could reach open flames, sparks and cigarettes etc.
If the machine is to be stored for a longer period than 30 days, the following method are recommended.
1. Empty the fuel tank.
2. Start the engine and let it run until it stops due to lack of fuel.
3. Change the engine oil if it has not been done for 3 months.
4. Remove the spark plug and empty a little engine oil (about 30 ml) in the hole. Crank the engine a couple
of times. Screw back the spark plug.
5. Clean the whole machine thoroughly.
6. Lubricate all the parts as shown in LUBRICATING above.
7. Inspect the machine for damage, repair if necessary.
8. Touch up any paint damage.
9. Rust protection to the metal surfaces.
10. Store the machine indoors if possible.
11. TRANSPORTING
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the machine on the
transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some materials.
Keep the engine upright when transporting to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
