Machine Care
Engine driven equipment must be kept indoors or well
covered in cold or rainy weather. If machine has been ex-
posed to freezing weather, unit must be run for ten or
twenty minutes without load to warm up. Failing to do this
will result in frozen bearings.
Cables
Store cable indoors, when not using, to protect from
the elements. Replace when old or worn.
