Operating Instructions
During Operation
Do not run the engine at full throttle off
load. When run off load, the engine
reaches very high revs, which can cause
the temperature of the gearbox to rise
unnecessarily.
After Finishing Work
Storing machine for a short period:
Wait for the engine to cool down. Store
the machine with an empty tank in a dry
place, well away from sources of
ignition, until you need it again. Check
the tightness of all accessible screws
and nuts at regular intervals and
retighten as necessary.
Storing for longer period:
See chapter "Storing the Machine".
