As mentioned above, when you have finished with it drain out the
fuel, then re-start it and run it until it's dry.
If you are leaveing it over winter, change the oil if four stroke,
clean the filter and whilst you have that off spray a little WD40
in the carb whilst pulling it over.

The strimmer uses an oil petrol mix 50.1, my mower (Honda, alway
starts easily touch wood) uses oil and petrol seperately, should I
drain the oil and petrol from the mower when storing for winter?

It's generally the best thing to drain the fuel -- especially from
the carburettor -- but I don't think it hurts to leave the engine
oil. Use fresh petrol in the spring, of course.
