Recommended spare parts
To guarantee efficient maintenance, the Manufacturer recommends
that only the original spare parts listed in the annexed spare parts
booklet should be used.
When ordering spare parts, specify the model of the machine,
registration number, reference number of the component in the
spare parts book and quantity.
8.6
Storing the machine
If the machine is not used for long periods, protect exposed parts
(not protected by paint, surface treatment or plastic) with protective
rust prevention oils. For the model with internal combustion engine,
disconnect the battery and empty the tank. For the electric model,
charge the batteries.
Allow the engine to cool down before putting the machine away in a
closed place.
Never store the machine with fuel in the tank inside
a building where the fumes could come into contact
with a naked flame or spark.
If the machine is not to be used for particularly long periods, you
should also clean it thoroughly. After performing these operations,
seal the machine inside an opaque black multilayer nylon bag
together with a suitable drying agent (silica gel).
