9. STORAGE

If the machine is to be stored for long periods:
- Drain and clean the fuel and oil tank in a well-
ventilated area.
- Dispose of fuel and oil according to the rules
and respecting the environment.
- To drain the tank, start the engine and wait
until the fuel is exhausted and the engine
stops (leaving fuel mixture in the carburetor
could damage the membranes).
- Remove, clean and spray it with protective oil
the chain and the bar.
- Thoroughly clean the air intake slots on the
starter housing, the air filter (Fig. 27) and the
cylinder fins.
- Store the blower in a dry place, preferably not
in direct contact with the ground, away from
heat sources and the tanks empty.
- The procedures for returning the machine to
service following winter storage are the same
as for starting up during everyday use
(page 12).

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Environmental protection should be a priority of
considerable importance when using the
machine, for the benefit of both social cohesion
and the environment in which we live.
- Try not to cause any disturbance to the
surrounding area.
- Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of oils, petrol,
batteries, filters, deteriorated parts or any
elements which have a strong impact on the
environment. This waste must not be disposed
of as normal waste, it must be separated and
taken to specified waste disposal centers
where the material will be recycled.
Demolition and disposal
When the machine reaches the end of its service
life, do not dispose of it into the environment;
instead take it to a waste disposal center.
Most materials used in the manufacture of the
machine are recyclable; all metals (steel,
aluminium, brass) can be delivered to a normal
recycling station. For information contact your
local waste recycling service. Waste disposal must
be carried out with respect for the environment,
avoiding soil, air and water pollution.
In all cases, applicable local legislation must
be complied with.
