Transportation, storage and disposal

Transportation

• Do not tow the product.
• The product is heavy and can cause crush injuries. Be careful when you load it onto or off a vehicle or trailer.
• Load the product in reverse on approved ramps of a maximum operation angle of 10°. Do not lift the product.
• Use an approved trailer for transportation of the product.
• Make sure that you have knowledge of local road traffic regulations before transportation of the product in a trailer or on roads.
• Lock the product with approved devices, such as straps. Use tie-down points on the product or applicable areas of the frame. The parking brake is not sufficient to lock the product during transportation.

Storage

• Prepare the product for storage at the end of the season, and before more than 30 days of storage. If you keep fuel in the fuel tank for 30 days or more, tacky particles can cause blockage in the carburetor. This has a negative effect on the engine function.
• To prevent tacky particles during storage, add a stabilizer. If alkylate gasoline is used, stabilizer is not necessary. If you use standard gasoline, do not change to alkylate gasoline. This can cause sensitive rubber parts to become hard. Add stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the container used for storage. Always use the mixing ratios given by the manufacturer. Add the stabilizer and run the engine for a minimum of 10 minutes, until the fuel flows into the carburetor.
• WARNING: Do not keep the product with fuel in the tank in an indoor location or in locations with bad airflow. Risk of fire if fuel fumes come near open flames, sparks, or pilot lights in for example boilers, hot water tanks and clothes dryers.
