transport stops, the attachments must
always be placed on the ground when
the machine is parked, stored or left
unattended.
• Store the machine out of the reach of
children.
Do not store the machine with fuel
in the tank in an area where fuel va-
pours could reach a flame, a spark or a
strong heat source.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing in
an enclosed space.

age to tools, clothing and other mate-
rials. Immediately rinse the affected
area with water.
Never short-circuit the battery termi-
nals. The resulting sparks could cause
a fire.
