11. Storage

Cleaning
• Keep handles free of oil, so you always have a se-
cure hold.
• Clean the equipment as required with a damp cloth
and, if necessary, mild washing up liquid.
m Important!
• Always pull out the spark boot plug each time be-
fore carrying out any cleaning.
• Never immerse the equipment in water or other liq-
uids in order to clean it.
• Store the petrol multi garden tool in a safe and dry
place out of the reach of children.
Storage
Important: Never put the equipment into storage for
longer than 30 days without carrying out the follow-
ing steps.
Storing the equipment
If you intend to store the equipment for longer than 30
days, the equipment must be prepared accordingly.
Otherwise the fuel still remaining in the carburetor will
evaporate and leave a rubbery sediment. This can
cause problems when starting up the equipment and
may require expensive repairs.
1 Slowly remove the fuel tank cap to release any
pressure that may have formed in the tank. Care-
fully empty the tank.
2 To remove the fuel from the carburetor, start the
engine and let it run until the equipment stops.
3 Leave the engine to cool (approx. 5 minutes).
4 Remove the spark plug (see section 10 Change
and clean the spark plug).
5 Add one teaspoon of 2-stroke engine oil into the
combustion chamber. Slowly pull the starter cord
several times to apply a layer of oil to all internal
components. Fit the spark plug again.
Note: Store the equipment in a dry place and far
away from possible ignition sources such as an oven,
a gas-fired hot water boiler, a gas fired dryer, etc.
Putting the equipment back into operation
1 Remove the spark plug (see section 10 Change
and clean the spark plug).
2 Quickly tug on the starter cord to remove excess
oil from the combustion chamber.
3 Clean the spark plug and check that the electrode
gap is correct, or insert a new spark plug with the
correct electrode gap.
4 Prepare the equipment for operation.
5 Fill the tank with the relevant mixture of fuel and
oil. See the section „Fuel and oil".

In order to prevent damage and injury, secure the tool
against tipping over and sliding when transporting it
in vehicles.
