Storage of the machine

Before long term storage clean the loader carefully and check and touch-up painted surfaces if necessary in

order to avoid rust damages. Grease the greasing points and put oil on piston rods of the cylinders. Take off

the battery and store it in the right way. It is recommended to perform the yearly service before storage.

Close the gas valve and let the engine run until all gas runs out from the pipes. Take off the gas bottle and store

it in upright position in a cool, dry place; protected from heat and sun. Cover well the end of the gas hose

also.
