Disposal
1. Lubricate the blade bars to prevent rust with special grease, part no. 531 00 75-12 (UL21), before long periods of storage.
2. Empty the fuel tank and put the cap back on. Drain off the fuel in an approved container outdoors and well clear of naked
flames.
3. Remove the spark plug, pour a small amount of oil into the cylinder.
4. Rotate the crankshaft several times using the starting rope in order to distribute the oil. Put the spark plug back in.
5. Wrap the engine with a plastic sheet.
6. Store the trimmer indoors in a dry place, dust free place, out of the reach of children, preferably not in direct contact with the
floor and away from heat sources.
7. The transport guard should always be fitted to the cutting attachment when the machine is not in use.
When disposing your machine, fuel or oil for the machine, be sure to follow your local regulations.
