7.3 Storage
Please note: If you fail to follow these instructions
correctly, deposits may form on the interior of the
carburetor which may result in the engine being more
difficult to start or the machine suffering permanent
damage.
1. Carry out all the maintenance work.
2. Drain the fuel out of the tank (use a conventional
plastic petrol pump from a DIY store for this purpose).
3. When the fuel has been drained, start the engine.
4. Allow the engine to run at idling speed until it stops.
This will clean the remainder of the fuel out of
the carburetor.
5. Leave the machine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
6. Remove the spark plug (see point 7.2.2).
7. Place a teaspoon full of 2-stroke engine oil into the
combustion chamber. Pull the starter cable several
times carefully to wet the internal components with
the oil. Fit the spark plug again.
8. Clean the exterior housing of the machine.
9. Store the machine in a cold, dry place where it is out
of the reach of ignition sources and inflammable
substances.
Fertilizers and other chemical garden products often
contain substances that accelerate the rate of corrosion
of metals. Do not store the machine on or near fertilizers
or other chemicals.
Restarting
1. Remove the spark plug.
2. Pull the starter cable several times to clean the oil
residue out of the combustion chamber.
3. Clean the spark plug contacts or fit a new spark plug.
4. Fill the tank. See the section entitled Fuel and oil.
5. Complete steps 1-8 described under the point (6.2)
entitled “Starting the engine from cold”.
