- Always check and maintain adequate fuel and oil levels before use to keep your engine running efficiently.
- Before storing your tools, make sure they’re clean and free of any dirt, grass, or debris. This prevents rust and wear.
- Store your equipment in a dry, sheltered place away from extreme temperatures and moisture.
- Regularly inspect your tools for any signs of damage or wear, and address issues promptly to avoid bigger problems.
