12.5 Storage and periods of
inoperation (winter break)
Store the tiller in the normal position
(transport chassis folded out). For space-
saving storage, fold the handlebar
downwards as shown.
Store the machine in a dry, locked, dust-
free room. Make sure that it is out of the
reach of children.
Any faults must always be remedied prior
to storage. The machine must always be in
a safe operating condition. Keep all nuts,
pins and screws tightly fastened, replace
danger signs and warnings on the
machine that have become illegible and
check the entire machine for wear and
damage. Replace all worn and damaged
parts.
Also note the following points when storing
the machine for long periods (winter
break):
Clean all external parts of the machine
with care.
Empty the fuel tank and carburettor.
Thoroughly lubricate/grease all moving
parts.
Unscrew the spark plug (see engine
instruction manual) and pour approx.
3 cm³ of engine oil into the engine via
the spark plug hole. Turn the engine
several times with the spark plug
removed (pull the recoil starter rope).
Screw the spark plug back in (see
engine instruction manual).
Perform an oil change (see engine
instruction manual).
Cover the engine and store the
machine in the normal position.
13.1 Transporting the tiller
1 Pulling or pushing the tiller:
Set the brake spur to the highest
position. (Ö 11.5)
Fold out the transport chassis. (Ö 11.4)
Avoid damage to the machine!
When using a high-pressure
cleaner, maintain a distance of at
least 1 m and never direct the
water jet directly at bearing points,
drive shaft or seals – especially the
seal between the gearbox housing
and guard plate.
Avoid damage to the machine!
Always have the gearbox
maintained by a specialist dealer.
Danger of tipping over!
The tiller can tip over forwards if the
hoes are poorly positioned. For that
reason, always check that the tiller
is stable.
If necessary, turn the hoes slightly
to reduce the top-heaviness.
Alternatively support the tiller in the
area of the carrying handle during
storage.

Fire hazard!
Keep the spark plug socket away
from the spark plug hole due to the
danger of ignition.

the "For your safety" section (Ö 4.),
especially the "Transport" section
(Ö 4.4).

clothing (safety shoes, gloves,
overall covering hands and legs).
Take weight into account! (Ö 18.)
