MAINTENANCE

FUEL CAP

WARNING:

A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced immediately.

The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine perfor- mance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is loosened, the check valve may be faulty or the filter clogged. Replace fuel cap if required.

STORAGE (1 MONTH OR LONGER)

1.Drain all fuel from tank into a container approved for petrol. Run engine until it stops.

2.Clean all foreign material from the trimmer. Store it in a well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts.

3.Abide by all ISO and local regulations for the safe storage and handling of petrol. Excess fuel should be used up in other 2-cycle engine-powered equipment.
