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 of the maintenance work.

2.  Drain the fuel out of the tank (You can use 

 

a plastic petrol pump for this purpose,  
which  can be bought via our  

HELPLINE 0151 649 1500).

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.
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 1-7 described under the 

point entitled “Starting the engine from 

cold”.

7.4 Transport

To transport the machine, first empty the 
petrol tank as described in section 2 in the 

section entitled “Storage”. Clean coarse dirt 

off the machine with a brush or hand  
brush. Dismantle the long handle as 
described 5.1.1
