Storage
For extended periods of storage, it is advisable that the machine be kept in a clean dry environment protected from
the elements to avoid risk of corrosion.
The machine should be thoroughly cleaned and lubricated prior to storage. At this point it is good practice to check
the machine for worn or damaged components - any parts that require replacing should be ordered and fitted at
the earliest opportunity so the machine is fully prepared for the next seasons work.
