If the cartridge is very dirty or damaged, replace
it.
Storage:
Store the machine in upright position, after the
engine gets cooled.
If the machine must be stored in horizontal
position, place it always on the front or right-
hand side. Tighten the fuel tank cap properly
and check, whether the fuel does not leak. Drain
the fuel tank if necessary.
NOTE!
Lower the tamper always on the front or
right-hand side (with the fuel tank cap up).
Long-term storage:
Drain the fuel tank and the carburetor. Remove
the sparkling plug and put several drop of
engine oil into the cylinder. Turn the engine
several times, so that oil covers evenly all parts.
Clean the tamper and wipe it with a cloth dipped
in clean oil.
Store the machine at a safe, dry and shaded
place and cover it for protection against dust.
