2. Start the engine and let it run until it uses up all the remaining gasoline and fumes.

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE
Inspect your engine as described in the PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION section of this manual.
If fuel is drained during preparation for storage, fill the tank with fresh gasoline. If you keep a tank of
gasoline for refueling, make sure it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates
over time, leading to hard starting and clogs.
If the cylinder has been coated with oil during preparation for storage, the engine will smoke for a
short time when starting. This is normal.
FUEL STORAGE
• Store gasoline only in a special container, otherwise there is a risk of fuel contamination.
• Never store the engine near stoves, ovens, boilers with control lights and other devices that can
cause sparks.
• If you use contaminated gasoline, there is a risk of engine mis-starting or damage.
• Store a minimum amount of fuel that you can use for up to 14 days. Do not use fuel older than 14
days.
DEVICE-SPECIFIC STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Store the machine in a dry, clean and frost-protected place, inaccessible to unauthorized per-
sons.
2. Cover the unit with a suitable protective covering that does not retain moisture. Do not use plas-
tic like
cover. A non-porous cover will trap moisture around the mower, promoting rust and corrosion.
3. Keep the machine in good condition, if necessary, replace the warning and instruction labels on
the machine.
4. Clean and maintain the machine before storage. Improper troubleshooting before operation can
cause a malfunction that could seriously injure or kill you.
5. Carefully remove any bits of dry grass and excess grease that may have collected around the
engine, muffler, battery or fuel tank to prevent them from igniting the next time you use the ma-
chine!
6. After each use, carefully clean the machine parts and accessories (see Maintenance and Clean-
ing Instructions). This will prevent mold from forming.
7. When the machine is stored or left unattended, lower the blades.
Note: During storage, measures must be taken to protect the equipment from corrosion. Using a
light oil or silicone, coat the equipment, especially all metal parts and all moving parts.
BATTERY STORAGE
• The batteries are stored in a dry and dust-free room, protected from frost, at an ambient tem-
perature ranging preferably from + 10 ° C to + 20 ° C.
• Charge the battery before storing it. Store the battery in a dry, dark and thermally stable environ-
ment.
• Do not store the battery in direct sunlight.
• Do not store or use the battery in places where the temperature may reach or exceed 50° C (such
as outdoor sheds or metal buildings in summer).
• When the battery is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects such as paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that may connect from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals may cause burns or fire.
• In case of long-term storage, we recommend that you disassemble or at least disconnect the
