When refitting make sure that the air filter seals tightly
against the filter holder. Clean the filter by brushing or
shaking it.
Lubricating the bar tip sprocket
Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use the
special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease.
The filter can be cleaned more thoroughly by washing it in
water and detergent.
An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be
cleaned completely.The filter must therefore be replaced with
a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must
always be replaced.
Adjustment of the oil pump
The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by turning
the screw using a screwdriver or combination spanner. The
machine is supplied from the factory with the screw set to
position 2.Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the oil flow
and turning the screw anti-clockwise will increase the oil flow.
A HUSQVARNA chain saw can be equipped with different
types of air filters according to working conditions, weather,
season, etc. Contact your dealer for advice.

which may result in operating problems and starting
difficulties.
