Transport And Storage; Accessories - Honda UMS425E1 Owner's Manual

TRANSPORT AND
STORAGE
TRANSPORT
When transporting or carrying your grass trimmer, the engine
must always be stopped.
When carrying your grass trimmer, hold it by the transmission tube
in a balanced position.
If it is to be transported in a vehicle, make sure that it is properly
secured so it cannot move.
It must be positioned so that there is no risk of fuel leakage.
STORAGE
If the machine is not to be used for more than two months, the
following storage precautions should be taken:
- Drain the fuel tank and run the engine to empty the carburettor.
- Remove the spark plug and pour a few drops of oil (same quality
as that used in the engine) into the cylinder.
- Gently pull the recoil starter to distribute the oil in the cylinder and
on the piston. Then reinstall the spark plug.
- Clean the whole machine, paying special attention to plant
residues accumulated around the cutting attachment, in the
engine cooling fins and under the cowlings.
- Using a paint brush, apply a thin film of standard oil over the metal
cutting attachments to prevent corrosion.
- Store the machine in its packaging, in a cool dry place.
- If the machine is to be stored in a vertical position, place it with the
engine at the bottom so that it will not topple over.
USING THE AFTER A STORAGE PERIOD
1. Remove the spark plug, check that it is clean and that the
electrode gap is correct. Pull the starter several times.
2. We recommend that the spark plug be screwed down as far as
possible by hand until finger tight ; then use a plug spanner to
tighten it by an extra 1/8 or 1/4 turn.
3. Check the level and condition of the engine oil.
4. Fill the fuel tank and start the engine.
NOTE: If the cylinder has been coated with oil, the engine will
smoke on start-up. This is normal.

SAFETY
FUEL STORAGE
NOTE:
• Ensure that you use containers or drums
specifically designed for hydrocarbons [1].
This will prevent polluting the fuel through the
dissolution of the container walls, which will
lead to poor functioning of the engine.
• The warranty does not cover a blocked
carburetor or valves jammed by old or polluted
fuel.
• The quality of unleaded petrol alters very
quickly (2 to 3 weeks in some cases). Do not use fuel more than
1 month old. Store the absolute minimum required for your
monthly consumption.
