3. Lawn mower with blade brake clutch, BBC
Your lawn mower is equipped with a blade brake clutch (BBC).
As with all modern lawn mowers, the blade comes to a stop within a short time as soon as the handlebar is released. However, thanks to the BBC system, the engine continues to run. This function allows the user to use the mower's self-propulsion after the blade has stopped. Moreover, the grass catcher bag can be emptied or the mulching key can be inserted, for example, without having to start the engine again.

Risk of injury!
Never reach into the working area of the blade when the engine is running.
Stop the engine, allow the blade to come to a complete standstill and detach the spark plug socket before touching the blade.

Please consult a physician if you experience symptoms that may have been caused by vibrational loads. Symptoms of this kind principally affect the fingers, hands or wrists and include (incomplete list):
- numbness,
- pain,
- muscular weakness,
– skin discolouration,
– unpleasant tingling sensation.
5.2 Refilling the tank – handling petrol

Danger to life!
Petrol is poisonous and extremely inflammable.
Petrol must only be stored in appropriate, tested containers (canisters). Always screw on the fuel tank and canister caps properly and tightly. Defective caps must be replaced for safety reasons.
Never use beverage bottles or similar for disposal or storage of fuels and lubricants. Persons, particularly children, could be tempted to drink out of them.

Keep petrol away from sparks, naked flames, pilot lights, heat sources, and other ignition sources. Do not smoke!
Refill the tank out-of-doors and do not smoke during refilling.
Before refilling the tank, stop the engine and allow it to cool.
Refilling with petrol must be performed before the engine is started. When the engine is running or is hot, the tank cap must not be removed and the tank must not be refilled with petrol.
Do not fill fuel tank completely, but fill to approx. 4 cm below the edge of the filler neck so that the fuel has room to expand.
If petrol is spilled, the engine must only be started after the petrol-contaminated area has been cleaned. All attempts at starting must be avoided until the petrol fumes have dispersed (wipe dry).
Any spilt fuel must be wiped up immediately.
Clothing must be changed if it comes into contact with petrol.
Never store the machine with petrol in the tank inside a building. The resulting petrol fumes could come into contact with naked flames or sparks and could be ignited.
If it is necessary to drain the tank, this must be done out of doors.
5.3 Clothing and equipment

Always wear sturdy footwear with high-grip soles when working. Never work barefoot
ample, in sandals.

Always wear hearing protection when working with the machine.

Also always wear sturdy gloves and tie up and secure long hair (headscarf, cap, etc.) when performing maintenance and
cleaning work or when transporting the machine.

Wear suitable safety glasses when sharpening the mowing blade.
Always wear long trousers and tight-fitting clothing when operating the machine.
Never wear loose clothes which may become caught on moving parts (control levers) – do not wear jewellery, ties or scarves.
5.4 Transporting the machine
Always wear gloves in order to prevent injuries due to sharp-edged and hot components.
Do not transport the machine with the engine running. Switch off the engine, let the blades come to a standstill and remove the spark plug socket prior to transport.
Only transport the machine once the engine has cooled down and with an empty fuel tank.
Use suitable loading aids (loading ramps, lifters).
Secure the machine and any machine components being transported (e.g. grass catcher box) on the load floor using fastening material of adequate size (belts, ropes etc.).
Avoid contact with the mowing blade when lifting and carrying the machine.
Observe the information in the section "Transport". It describes how to lift and lash the machine. ( 14.)
When transporting the machine, always observe regional legislation, especially regarding load security and the transport of objects on load floors.
5.5 Before operation
Make sure that only persons who are familiar with the instruction manual are permitted to use the machine.
Check the fuel system (particularly visible parts such as e.g. tank, tank cap, hose connections) before operating the machine. In the event of any leaks or damage, do not start the engine – fire hazard!
Have the machine repaired by a specialist dealer prior to operation.
Observe the local regulations regarding permitted operating times for gardening power tools with combustion engines or electric motors.
Carefully inspect the complete area on which the machine is to be used and remove any stones, sticks, wires, bones and other foreign objects which could be thrown up by the machine. Obstacles (e.g. tree stumps, roots) can be easily overlooked in long grass.
For this reason, mark all foreign objects (obstacles) which are hidden in the lawn and cannot be removed before commencing work with the machine.
Defective mufflers and all other worn or damaged parts must be removed before use of the machine. Replace any illegible or damaged danger signs and warnings on the machine. Your VIKING specialist has a supply of replacement stickers and all the other spare parts.
The machine must only be used in good operating condition. Before each use, check whether:
– The machine is properly assembled.
- The cutting tool and the entire cutting unit (mowing blade, fastening attachments, mowing deck housing) are in good condition. In particular check for secure fastening, damage (notches or cracks) and wear. (⇒ 12.5)
– The tank cap is properly attached.
– The tank and fuel-carrying parts, as well as the tank cap are in good condition.
- The safety devices (e.g. blade brake clutch, discharge flap, housing, handlebar, protective grille) are in good condition and working properly.
- The grass catcher bag is undamaged and correctly installed; a damaged grass catcher bag must not be used.
– The oil tank cap is screwed on properly.
Carry out any necessary work or consult a specialist dealer. VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
5.6 Working with your machine

Never work when animals or persons, particularly children, are in the danger area.
The switch and safety devices installed in the machine must not be removed or bypassed. In particular, never secure the blade stop lever to the handlebar (e.g. by tying it).

Caution – risk of injury! Never put hands or feet on or underneath rotating parts. Never touch the rotating blade.
Always keep away from the discharge opening.
Always observe the safety distance provided by the handlebar. The handlebar must always be installed correctly and must not be modified. Never operate the machine with the handlebar folded down.
Never attach any objects to the handlebar (e.g. work clothing).
Only work during the day or with good artificial light.
Do not operate the machine in the rain or during thunder storms, particularly when there is a risk of lightning strike.
The risk of accidents is higher if the ground is damp due to increased danger of slipping.
Particular caution should be exercised
during working in order to prevent slipping. If possible, avoid using the machine when the ground is damp.
Exhaust gases:

Danger to life through poisoning! In the case of nausea, headache, impaired vision (e.g. decreasing field of view) hearing disorder, dizziness, decreasing power of concentration, stop working immediately. These symptoms may be caused by excessively high exhaust gas concentrations.

The machine generates poisonous exhaust gases when the engine is running. The gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, a colourless and odourless gas, as well as other pollutants. The engine must never be operated in closed or poorly ventilated spaces.
Starting:
Exercise care when starting and observe the instructions contained in the section entitled "Initial operation of machine". (⇔ 11.)
In particular, check operation of the blade brake clutch before starting work. ( 11.1)
The machine must not be tilted during start-up.
Disengage the mowing blade before starting. Do not actuate the self-propulsion lever during starting.
Do not start the engine if the discharge chute is not covered by the discharge flap or the grass catcher box.
Working on slopes:
Always work across and back on slopes, never up and down. If the user loses control when mowing up and down, there is a risk of being run over by the machine.
Be particularly careful when changing direction on a slope.
Always ensure good stability on slopes and avoid mowing on excessively steep slopes.
For safety reasons, the machine must not be used on slopes with an inclination of more than 25^ (46.6 %). Risk of injury! A slope inclination of 25^ corresponds to a vertical height increase of 46.6 cm for a 100 cm horizontal distance.

text_image
max. 25° 100 46,6In order to ensure an adequate oil supply for the engine, the information in the accompanying engine instruction manual must be additionally observed when using the machine on slopes.
Working:

Risk of injury
Never place your hands or feet above, underneath or on rotating parts.

Do not attempt to examine the blade while the lawn mower is operating. Never open the
discharge flap and/or remove the grass catcher box when the mowing blade is running. Rotating blades can cause injury.
Only operate the machine at walking speed – never run when working with the machine. Working quickly with the machine increases the risk of injury due to stumbling, slipping, etc.
Be particularly careful when turning the machine around or pulling it towards you. Risk of stumbling!
Use the machine with great care when working near rubbish dumps, ditches and embankments. In particular, ensure that you maintain sufficient distance to such danger areas.
Objects hidden in the grass (lawn sprinkler systems, posts, water valves, foundations, electrical wires, etc.) must be avoided. Never intentionally run over any such foreign objects.

Beware of the cutting tool running on for several seconds before coming to a standstill.
STOP
Stop the engine, allow the work tool to come to a complete
standstill and detach the spark plug socket
– before leaving the machine unattended
– before re-filling the tank. Allow the engine to cool down before re-filling the tank.
Fire hazard!
– before remedying blockages, including those in the discharge chute,
– before lifting or carrying the machine
– before transporting the machine
– before carrying out any work on the mowing blade,
– before checking or cleaning the machine or before carrying out any other work (e.g. folding down the handlebar) on it,
– after hitting a foreign object or if the lawn mower begins to vibrate excessively. In these cases check the machine, in particular the cutting unit (blade, blade shaft, blade fastening) for damage and carry out the necessary repairs before restarting and working with the machine.

Risk of injury!
Strong vibrations are generally an indication of a fault. In particular, the lawn mower must not be operated with a damaged or bent crankshaft or mowing blade. If you do not have the appropriate expertise, have the necessary repairs carried out by a specialist dealer (VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers).
Disengage the mowing blade
- When driving the machine to and from the area to be mowed or when pushing it for this purpose
– Before pushing machine onto an area not covered in grass or before driving it onto such an area - If tilting of the mower is necessary when pushing or driving it over an area other than grass
– Before adjusting the cutting height
– Before opening the discharge flap or removing the grass catcher bag
5.7 Maintenance and repairs

Before beginning cleaning, adjustment, repair and maintenance operations, park the machine on firm, level
ground, stop the engine, allow it to cool down and detach the spark plug socket.

Risk of injury due to the mowing blade!
Pulling the recoil starter rope with the mowing blade engaged starts the work tool rotating. Always ensure sufficient distance between the mowing blade and your body, particularly your hands and feet, when you pull the recoil starter rope.
Allow the machine to cool down before working on or around the engine, exhaust manifold or muffler in particular. Temperatures of 80^ C and above can be reached. Danger of burns
Direct contact with engine oil can be dangerous. Engine oil must not be spilled. VIKING recommends leaving the task of topping up engine oil or performing engine oil changes to a VIKING specialist dealer.
Cleaning:
The complete machine must be cleaned thoroughly following use. ( 12.3)
Empty the fuel tank (e.g. by running it empty) before placing the machine in the cleaning position.
Remove accumulated clipping deposits using a stick. Clean the underside of the mower with water and a brush.
Never use high-pressure cleaners and do not clean the machine under running water (e.g. using a garden hose).
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents. These can damage plastics and metals, impairing the safe operation of your VIKING machine.
In order to prevent fire hazards, keep the area around the air vents, cooling ribs and the area of the exhaust free from e.g. grass, straw, moss, leaves or escaping grease.
Maintenance operations:
Only maintenance operations described in this instruction manual may be carried out. Have all other work performed by a specialist dealer.
If you do not have the necessary expertise or auxiliary equipment, please always contact a specialist dealer.
VIKING recommends that you have maintenance operations and repairs performed exclusively by a VIKING specialist dealer.
VIKING specialist dealers regularly attend training courses and are provided with technical information.
Only use tools, accessories or attachments approved for this machine by VIKING or technically identical parts.
Otherwise, there may be a risk of accidents resulting in personal injury or damage to the machine. If you have any questions, please consult a specialist dealer.
The characteristics of original VIKING tools, accessories and spare parts are optimally adapted to the machine and the user's requirements. Genuine VIKING spare parts can be recognised by the VIKING spare parts number, by the VIKING lettering and, if present, by the VIKING spare parts symbol. On smaller parts, only the symbol may be present.
For safety reasons, fuel-carrying components (fuel line, fuel cock, fuel tank, tank cap, connections, etc.) must be checked regularly for damage and leaks and replaced by a technician if necessary (VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers).
Always keep warning and information stickers clean and readable. Damaged or missing stickers must be replaced by new, original plates from your VIKING specialist dealer. If a component is replaced with a new component, ensure that the new component is provided with the same stickers.
Only perform work on the cutting unit when wearing thick work gloves and exercising extreme care.
Ensure that all nuts, pins and screws (in particular the blade fastening screw) are securely tightened so that the machine is in a safe operating condition.
Check the complete machine and the grass catcher box for wear or damage on a regular basis, particularly before extended periods when the machine is not in use (e.g. over winter). For safety reasons, worn or damaged parts must be replaced immediately to ensure that the machine is always in a safe operating condition.
Never alter the basic setting of the engine or run at excessive engine speeds.
Components or guards that are removed for maintenance operations must be properly reinstalled immediately.
5.8 Storage for prolonged periods without operation
Allow the engine to cool before storing the machine in an enclosed space.
Store the machine with empty fuel tank and the fuel reserve in a lockable and well-ventilated room.
Ensure that the machine is protected from unauthorised use (e.g. by children).
Never store the machine with petrol in the tank inside a building. The resulting petrol fumes could come into contact with naked flames or sparks and could be ignited.
If the tank has to be emptied (e.g. to store the machine before the winter break), this should only be done out of doors (e.g. by running the tank empty).
Thoroughly clean the machine before storage (e.g. winter break).
Only store the machine with the spark plug socket disconnected.
Store the machine in good operational condition.
5.9 Disposal
Waste products such as used engine oil or fuel, used lubricants, filters, batteries and similar wearing parts can be harmful to people, animals and the environment, and must consequently be disposed of properly.
Consult your recycling centre or your specialist dealer for information on the proper disposal of waste products. VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
Ensure that old machines are properly disposed of. Render the machine unusable prior to disposal. In order to prevent accidents, remove the ignition lead, empty the fuel tank and drain the engine oil in particular.
Risk of injury due to the mowing blade! Always store an old lawn mower in a safe place prior to scrapping. Ensure that the machine and particularly the mowing blade are kept out of the reach of children.

9. Blade brake clutch (BBC)



Risk of injury!
Operation of the blade brake clutch must be checked before each use. ( 11.1)
For safety reasons, the lever must never be disabled, e.g. by tying it to the handlebar.
Two-hand operation:
The mowing blade can only be engaged as follows with the engine running:
Press one of the two blade stop levers (2) with one hand and, while keeping it pressed, pull the blade clutch lever (6) upwards with the other hand and allow it to engage. ( 11.3)
Integrated blade-run-down brake:
When the handlebar is released, the mowing blade is disengaged and braked to a standstill within a maximum of three seconds, while the engine continues to run. ( 11.4)
10. Notes on working with the machine
A perfect, thick lawn is achieved by
- Mowing at low driving speeds.
– Mowing regularly and keeping the grass short. - Not cutting the lawn too short in hot, dry conditions as it will be burnt by the sun and become unsightly.
- Using a sharp mowing blade – mowing blade should therefore be sharpened regularly (specialist dealer).
- Changing the cutting direction regularly.
11. Operating the machine

Risk of injury:
Carefully read and observe the "For your safety" section before operating the machine. (⇔ 5.)
11.1 Checking the blade brake clutch
Operation of the blade brake clutch must be checked three times before starting work.
- Engage the mowing blade with the engine running. ( 11.3) A running mowing blade generates a clearly audible wind noise.
- Disengage the mowing blade (release handlebar). ( 11.4) The blade brake clutch disengages the mowing blade from the engine drive and brakes it. This procedure is accompanied by stopping of the wind noise and lasts a maximum of 3 seconds. No wind noise must be audible when the blade is stopped.

Risk of injury!
Should the blade brake clutch not work as described (e.g. longer blade brake time than 3 seconds or continuing audible wind noise when the mowing blade is disengaged), the machine must not be operated.
In this case, switch off the engine, detach the spark plug socket and have the necessary repairs performed by a qualified technician. VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
11.2 Starting the engine
- Check the oil and fuel levels. (⇒ 8.8)
- Set the throttle lever (1) to the Choke position when the engine is cold. Set the throttle lever (1) to the Start position when the engine is warm or during hot weather.



- Pull the recoil starter rope (2) slowly to the point of compression resistance and then pull vigorously to arm's length. Slowly release the cable so that it can gradually be rolled up by the starter. Repeat the starting procedure until the engine starts.
- Set the throttle lever (1) to the Start position.
11.3 Engaging the mowing blade



Do not engage the mowing blade in tall grass and only engage it at the maximum engine speed.
Always engage it quickly in order to prevent unnecessary wear to the blade clutch.
- Press the left or right blade stop lever (1) to the handlebar and hold. This releases the blade clutch lever (2).
- Pull the blade clutch lever (2) quickly rearwards to the stop in order to engage the mowing blade. The lever locks into the engaged position at the stop and can be released.
- Keep both blade stop levers (1) pressed when working. One of the two levers can be released at any time in order to make mowing easier.
11.4 Disengaging the mowing blade

- To disengage the mowing blade, release both blade stop levers (1). The blade clutch lever (2) is released and returns automatically to its initial position. The mowing blade is disengaged and braked, the engine continues to run.
11.5 Stopping the engine
- In order to stop the engine, move the throttle lever (1) to the Stop position.

11.6 Switching on self-propulsion

The lawn mower is equipped with a three-speed gearbox. The three forward gears can be freely selected with self-propulsion engaged.
Drive speed:
1st gear: 2.4 km/h
2nd gear: 3.5 km/h
3rd gear: 4.6 km/h
- Before switching on self-propulsion, start the engine and engage the desired gear using the gearshift lever (1). VIKING recommends selecting 1st gear for driving off.
- Pull either the left or right self-propulsion lever (2) upwards to the handlebar and hold. Self-propulsion is engaged and the lawn mower moves forwards.
11.7 Switching off self-propulsion

- Release both self-propulsion levers (1) to switch off self-propulsion.
11.8 Grass catcher bag with anti-dust screen

An anti-dust screen (1) is attached on the upper side of the grass catcher bag, which prevents fine dust from being blown upwards in the direction of the user.
Filling:
The centre of the anti-dust screen is lifted slightly through the air flow which is generated by the rotary motion of the mowing blade and is responsible for filling the grass catcher bag.
When the grass catcher bag is full, this flow of air is reduced and the anti-dust screen drops down onto the grass catcher bag:
Emptying the grass catcher bag:

Risk of injury!
Always disengage the mowing blade before emptying. ( 5.6)
Take weight into account! A completely filled grass catcher bag can weigh up to 22 kg.

Always empty the grass catcher bag in good time in order to prevent the discharge chute from becoming obstructed. Obstructions can block the mowing blade and lead to unnecessary wear of the blade brake clutch.
• Disengage the mowing blade. ( 11.4)
- Detach the grass catcher bag. (⇒ 8.7)
- The grass catcher bag is easy to empty thanks to its large aperture, the swivelling loop handle (2), the handle (3) and the nylon strap (4) sewn onto the back.
- Attach the grass catcher bag again after emptying ( 8.7) and continue working.
12. Maintenance

Risk of injury:
Carefully read the section "For your safety" ( 5.), particularly the subsection "Maintenance and repairs" ( 5.7), and follow all safety instructions exactly before performing any maintenance or cleaning operations on the machine.

Detach the spark plug socket before performing any maintenance or cleaning operations.
12.1 Engine
Maintenance interval: See engine instruction manual
To achieve a long service life, it is always particularly important to maintain a sufficient level of oil and to change the oil and air filter regularly, as well as to observe the recommended oil change intervals.
Information regarding engine oil and oil capacity can also be found in the engine instruction manual.
The cooling ribs must always be kept clean to ensure that the engine is adequately cooled.
12.2 Wheels and gearbox
The wheel bearings are maintenance-free. The gearbox is maintenance-free.
12.3 Cleaning the machine
Maintenance interval: After each use

Care of the machine will protect it against damage and extend its service life.
Never spray water (high-pressure cleaner) onto engine components, seals, electrical parts or bearing points. This may result in damage and expensive repairs.
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents. These cleaners can damage plastics and metals, impairing the safe operation of your VIKING machine.
If you are unable to remove the dirt with water using a brush or a cloth, VIKING recommends the use of a special cleaner (e.g. STIHL special cleaner).
Detach accumulated cutting deposits in the housing and in the ejection chute beforehand using a stick.
In particular, also clean the mowing blade.
Cleaning position:
- Empty the fuel tank (e.g. by running empty).
- Park the machine on level, flat and solid ground.
- Select the highest cutting level. (Level 7). ( 8.6)
- Fold down the upper handlebar. ( 8.1)
-
Remove the grass catcher bag. (⇒ 8.7)
-
Lift the discharge flap with one hand. Simultaneously, hold the machine at the impact protector with the other hand and position the mower in the cleaning position.
- Set the handlebar down onto the ground as shown.
12.4 Blade brake clutch maintenance
Maintenance interval:
Professional use ^1 : every six months
Private use: once a year
^1 Professional use of the lawn mower
The blade brake clutch is subject to natural wear.
It may only be maintained by trained personnel. VIKING recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
12.5 Mowing blade maintenance

Maintenance interval: Before each use
- Tilt mower upwards into cleaning position ( 12.3).
- Clean mowing blade (1) and check it for damage (notches or cracks) and wear; replace if necessary.
- Use a slide calliper (2) to measure blade thickness at 5 points at least. In particular, minimum thickness must also be ensured in the area of the blade wings.
- Place a ruler (3) against the front blade edge and measure permissible grinding.
Risk of injury! A worn or dam
A worn or damaged mowing blade may break off and cause serious injuries. The instructions for blade maintenance must therefore always be observed.
Blades are subjected to differing degrees of wear depending on the location and duration of use. If you use the machine on sandy ground or use it frequently under dry conditions, the blade will be subjected to greater loads and will wear more quickly than the average.
Wear limits:
The blade thickness must be at least 2.5 mm at any point.
The cutting edges may not be ground back by more than 5 mm.
If the supplied standard blade is not installed in the lawn mower, but e.g. the multi-blade, which is available as a special accessory, different wear limits apply.
12.6 Removing mowing blade
- Place the machine in the cleaning position. ( 12.3)
- Unscrew the blade fastening screws (1) using an A/F 17 spanner.
- Remove the guard plate (2), mowing blade (3) and thrust washer (4).
12.7 Installing the mowing blade


Risk of injury!
Observe the specified torque of 45 - 55 Nm when tightening the blade fastening screws (4), as secure attachment of the cutting tool depends on this.
Use a new mowing blade (2) only together with new blade fastening screws (4) and a new guard plate (3).
- Install the thrust washer (1) and mowing blade (2) with the curved edges/vanes pointing upwards.
- Position the guard plate (3) on the mowing blade and fasten the blade fastening screws (4) to 45 - 55 Nm.
12.8 Sharpening the mowing blade
If mowing results deteriorate over time, this is usually the result of a blunt mowing blade.
The following points must be noted when resharpening:
- Remove the mowing blade. (⇒ 12.6)
- Cool the mowing blade when sharpening, e.g. with water. The blade must not be allowed to display blue colouring, as this would reduce its cutting quality.
- Sharpen blades evenly to prevent vibration due to imbalance.
-
The cutting angle of 30^ must be observed.
-
Observe the wear limits when sharpening.
- Remove any sharpening burr.
12.9 Adjusting the gearshift cable

Maintenance interval: As required
The tension of the cable is adjusted correctly at the factory. Following lengthy use, the cable must be adjusted if individual gears can no longer be selected.
- Loosen the lock nut (1) on the underside of the handlebar and adjust the cable via the nut (2). The cable is correctly adjusted when all three gears can be selected.
- Tighten the lock nut (1).
12.10 Adjusting the self-propulsion cable

Maintenance interval: As required
The tension of the cable is adjusted correctly at the factory.
Adjustment of the cable is necessary
- if, after a lengthy period of use, self-propulsion does not engage when the self-propulsion lever is actuated.
- if self-propulsion is not permanently engaged. - This means that the lawn mower automatically begins to move when the recoil starter rope is pulled, despite the self-propulsion lever not being actuated.
Risk of injury! The self-propul
The self-propulsion cable must be correctly adjusted before the machine is operated.
Checking the cable tension:
-
- Engage a gear and pull the recoil starter rope:
The lawn mower is not driven.
- Engage a gear and pull the recoil starter rope:
- Actuate and hold the self-propulsion lever (1); pull the starter cable: The lawn mower is driven.
Adjusting the cable:
- Unscrew nut (1, left-hand thread) and nut (2).
- Turn the screw element (3) such that self-propulsion begins when the self-propulsion lever reaches approx. half its travel.
- Tighten nuts (1, 2).
12.11 Storage and periods of inoperation (winter break)
Store the machine in a dry, locked, dust-free place. Make sure that it is out of the reach of children.
Any faults must be remedied prior to storage. The machine must always be in a safe operating condition.
Empty the fuel tank and carburettor prior to storage (e.g. by running empty).
Also note the following points when storing the machine for long periods (winter break):
- Clean all external parts of the machine with care.
- 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).
