examine it for signs of damage and carry out any
necessary repairs before restarting and

Maintenance and storage
1. Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are
tightened securely and that the machine is in
safe working condition.
2. Never store the mower (with petrol in the tank)
inside a building in which petrol fumes could
come into contact with open flames or sparks.
3. Allow the motor to cool before you put the lawn
mower in an enclosed area.
4. In order to avoid fire hazards, keep the engine,
exhaust and the area around the fuel tank free
from grass, leaves and leaking grease (oil).
5. Routinely check the grass basket for signs of
wear and impaired functionality.
6. For your own safety, replace worn or damaged
parts without delay.

petrol suction pump (available from DIY shops).
