float machine with the blades inclined may damage the
blade tilt system.

Never store the machine with fuel in the tank in
places where the fuel vapors might come into
contact with flames and/or sparks
If you know that the machine will not be used for more than
one month, drain the fuel from the tank in order to prevent
the formation of rubbery deposits, and disconnect the
battery.
If storing the machine in places where the temperature
might drop to below freezing drain the water tank.
