14. Storage
m DANGER!
Risk of fire and explosion!
Storing the product near potential sources of ignition
can result in a fire or an explosion. This can lead to
severe burns or death.
- Eliminate possible sources of ignition, such as
furnaces, hot water boilers with gas, gas dryers, etc.
NOTE!
Risk of damage!
If the product is not stored properly, the engine can be
damaged.
- Store the product protected against dirt, dust and
moisture.
14.1 Storage during extended breaks in operation
Allow the engine to cool down before parking the de-
vice in an enclosed space.
Store the petrol ride-on lawnmower with the tank emp-
tied and also store the fuel supply in a lockable and
well-ventilated area.
Never store the device with petrol in the fuel tank inside
a building in which fuel vapours may come into contact
with naked flames or sparks. If the tank has to be emp-
tied (e.g. decommissioning before winter break), the
fuel tank should only be emptied outdoors (e.g. empty
the tank by running the combustion engine outdoors).
Store the petrol ride-on lawnmower in a safe condition.
The ignition key (18a) must always be removed from
the ignition lock (18) and stored securely to prevent
unauthorised or improper use by children and other
persons.
Clean the petrol ride-on lawnmower thoroughly before
storing it (e.g. winter break). Dry grass cuttings and
leaves near the silencer can catch fire. Danger of ig-
nition!
Allow the device to cool down completely before cov-
ering it.
Before storage, carry out all necessary maintenance
work.
