12. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION
Storage
The following steps should be followed to prepare the lawn scarifier for storage.
1. Empty the tank.
a) Empty the fuel tank with a suction pump.
Caution! Do not empty gasoline in closed rooms, in close proximity to open fire, etc. Do
not smoke! Gasoline fumes can cause explosions or fires.
b) Start the engine and let it run until it has used all the fuel in the carburettor.
c) Remove the spark plug. Use an oil dipper to pour about 5ml of oil into the
combustion chamber. Operate the starter to distribute the oil evenly in the combustion
chamber. Refit the spark plug.
2. Clean and lubricate the machine carefully.
3. Lightly oil the cutter to avoid corrosion.
4. Store the lawn scarifier in a dry, clean and frost-protected place, out of the reach of
unauthorized persons.
Caution! The engine must be completely cooled before storing the machine.
Transport
Danger!
Before transporting, always stop the engine and let it cool down. Disconnect
the spark plug. The device must not be tilted when being transported.
Empty the fuel tank before transporting the unit.
