clothing (ties, scarves, etc.) or hair closer to
the top part of the engine.

inclines to prevent malfunctioning of the
engine.

b) Release the safety brake control handle (2) to
stop the engine.
c) Once the engine has cooled, disconnect the
spark plug cap (3).
d) Remove any grass build-up from the engine,
in particular from the silencer, to reduce fire
hazard.
5.7
CLEANING AND STORAGE
a) Do not spray with water or use hydraulic
lances to clean the exterior of the engine.
b) Use an airgun (max 6 bar) making sure that no
grass debris and dust fall inside the engine.
c) Store the lawnmower (and the engine) in a dry
place, sheltered from severe weather condi-
tions and sufficiently ventilated.
5.8
LONG STORAGE (over 30 days)
In case the engine has to be stored for a long
time (for example at the end of the season), a
few precautions are needed to help the future
start-up.
a) Drain fuel from tank to prevent build-ups
inside the tank.
b) Remove the spark plug and pour inside the
spark plug hole about 3 cl of clean engine oil.
Close the hole with a cloth, then pull, slowly
and carefully, the starting rope so that, with a
few engine revolutions, the oil will be distrib-
uted on the cylinder inner walls. Reinstall the
spark plug without connecting the cable cap.
