Preparation gasoline spit for winter storage and conservation

A tool such as trimmers, can be called a well-deserved "plodder". If the grass on the site pret, or will clear the weeds from running the territory, the petrol scythe does not let go. Winter trimmers sends well-deserved rest - in a barn or shed, until the next season. We offer you a set of simple recommendations, following which you can easily, zavedet trimmers for the next year, and the tool safely perezimuet in an unheated room.

So:

• Remove the line from the trimmer head and remove the cutting blade. Clean the grass, sand and mud.
• Unscrew the lid and pour out the remaining fuel from the tank into a suitable container by volume.
• Start the trimmers and let it run until it does not work out the remnants of the fuel mixture, which are located in the fuel line and carburetor.
• Once sickle stall, remove nadsvechnik and unscrew the spark plug.
• Take a disposable syringe and inject into the combustion chamber 5 ml of oil, which you use for the preparation of a gasoline composition for a two-stroke engine.

• Turn the piston, for it gradually, a few times, pull the handle on the starter cord. This will distribute the oil evenly on the cylinder.
• Refit the spark plug and slide nadsvechnik.

It is not recommended to store gasoline vykruchennoy braid with a spark plug, ie. K. A combustion chamber through an opening in the cylinder head may be dirty or small items.

• Check the air filter and fuel filter. If they are dirty, wash well and dry the air filter and replace the fuel filter.
• Keep sickle in limbo, for example, on the wall of the shed or sheds.

Tips for engine preservation trimmers are suitable for the preparation of a chainsaw storage.

Is it possible to store welding inverter winter in an unheated room

Novice welders often wondered what would happen with the welding machine, if it is left for the winter in the garage or in the cabins, where negative temperatures. After the inverter has electronic components - chips, transistors, capacitors, and electrolytes. What will happen to them?

I have a welding inverter. I've heard that it can not be stored in the cold. I keep the device at home. When you need something to make, dragging him to the garage. Tired. You can leave it there?

Below, users reviews FORUMHOUSE.

I have a branded German inverter. I keep it in the garage for two winters. Works fine. What he spoiled? And what is said in your statement?

Wladislaw

The inverter is not afraid of the cold. But if it is to place a cold into a warm room and immediately turn on, it may malfunction.

The reason for failure - the condensate which is formed due to the difference in temperatures on the street and the house. The result: in the electronic components will be a drop of water, and when you turn the device to the network, it can korotnut.

Muzzy555

My inverter "died" so, because of condensation. I built in the fall garden house and led the "wet" work. Much moisture. inverter board were not lacquered. There is water, as a result - a short circuit near the condenser. Prior to that, two years kept the inverter in the garage. There were no problems. I concluded, stored in the cold svarochnik possible, but if you want to start, first dry it.

According to the portal by the user with the nickname Olvlt, It is not only in the condensate. The inverter is - a complex electronic device with lots of feedback. Almost any circuit element, depending on the temperature, changing its parameters - the capacity, the inductance. Therefore, a producer and writes that guarantees operation of the welding inverter only in a certain temperature range.

All inverters have electrolytes large capacity, and the parameters depend on the ambient temperature.

Condensate greatly affects the performance or reliability of the welding apparatus. Take the input electrolyte. When it is heated, it expands. On cooling and if it is made of cheap technology, it becomes a high-vacuum pump which sucks a whole condensate located nearby. The effect will manifest itself immediately, but the next time the inverter is switched on. It is when the device you need desperately.

Storm274

I have a well-known brand inverter. The instruction was not a word about the temperature conditions during operation. But there is an indication that the need to store svarochnik packaged, at temperatures ranging from -10 to +50 degrees Celsius, at a humidity of not more than 80%.

Skvoznik

I am 8 years keep welding in cold garage. All OK. In the winter I cook often and a lot.

Andrew Evgenyev

And I keep your inverter in the car all year round. I turn on the cold too. Once cooked at -30 ° C. It is not broke.

Kashirets

Prompt. I stood for the inverter the whole winter in the dry, but not heated barn. Whether it is necessary prior to first use and work with welding, something to do with the product?

Yes need. First, warm up and dry the apparatus. Then turn the idling is not less than 2 hour. During this time, the electrolytic filter capacitors ottreniruyutsya and you can start to work with welding.

And where do you keep inverter welder at home or in an unheated shed or garage?

Storage and use a power tool at negative temperatures

In winter, some samostroyschiki send the tool in the shed for storage, while others continue to work with him. And those and other issues of concern:

• Do not harmful for the equipment long exposure to cold.
• Is it possible to operate the power in the cold.
• How to operate the power tool if the bring it in from the cold into a warm room.

I am building a house. Cold working at -10 degrees Celsius. I use the power - miter saw, marking gauge, network drill and screwdriver. I keep them in the cold. Cordless tools do not use. Old screwdriver, with nickel-cadmium batteries badly holds a charge, and lithium-ion, they say, is afraid of the cold. Tell me, who worked with the appliance in the cold, it is not harmful for him?

And I want to know whether it is possible to store an electrical tool which is powered by the network, in the cold? In winter, the temperature is lowered in the garage to -10 - -35 ° C. Can be left there until the summer of planer, circular saw and a grinder?

First we answer the question asked Osia.

Sergeyb3

Tooling laws of physics apply. Take, for example, screwdriver, it expands when heated. Expanding and battery. When he pushes the expansion of its internal excess air, the air being heated. When you leave the tool in a cold and humid air, during cooling, rotor, stator and the battery draws in the fact that it is colder. Including moisture. Therefore, after the introduction tool from the street to the apartment or just a warm room, it is advised not to include it at least 2 hours, but when setting out from a warm room into the cold, there are no such restrictions.

Do not forget about the occurrence of condensation, when skidding of the tool from the cold heat.

If you store the tool at negative temperature, and will work in the heat, then, first of all, should be wary of condensate. A condensate is - a potential risk of a short circuit.

Before operating the electric tool, which is moved from a cold in the body, let it warm up first, and then work.

Keep the electric tool can be a long time, and in the cold. Anything with it will not happen until the spring. You can also work in the winter.

Winter I worked on woodworking machines on the street. Conventional electric hand tools, too. Sawing, planing, chamfering chose more than one day in a row. Nothing has happened tool.

conclusions

 Abiding by the rules of which we spoke above, you will extend the period of electric and gasoline-powered services and ensure its trouble-free operation. To summarize:

• Gasoline and electric tools can be successfully stored in the winter in the garage or in the cabins.
• Power tool can operate successfully in the cold.
• Caution is required if the instrument is powered from the mains, entered from a cold to a warm. Not to be korotnulo due to condensation before turning on, wait for 2 hours.

And one moment.

I believe that the instrument "does not like" temperature differences. Chainsaw I drive a year-round in the trunk of a car. The heat zanoshu only batteries which are rented from the instrument.

Do not store the battery or battery tool in cabins or shed when the temperature falls below 0 ⁰C.

We advise to study the topic: Can I store the inverter in the cold in the garage.
