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.
Fitting the starter
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.
•
To fit the starter, first pull out the starter cord and place
the starter in position against the crankcase. Then
slowly release the starter cord so that the pulley
engages with the pawls.
•
Fit and tighten the screws that hold the starter.
