or run the
engine until it uses up all the fuel.
Remove the spark plug and add a few drops of oil into the spark plug hole.
Pull the starter cord gently to confirm that a film of oil covers the engine inside.
Tighten the spark plug.
Clean dirt or dust from the cutter blade and the outside of the machine and wipe
with an oily cloth.
Store in a dry place.

water. Allow

any excessive dirt and
dust.
