Contact your local gas station to find out where to dispose of excess fuel. Empty the fuel tank and press the primer until all fuel has been emptied. Remove the spark plug and drop a spoon of 2-stroke oil in the cylinder. Turn over the engine a few times and then put the spark plug back in place. • Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage. • Secure the machine during transport. • Store the machine in a dry, cool, well-aired and dustfree location.
