MAINTENANCE
4
Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
Oiling the air filter
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.
Always use HUSQVARNA filter oil, art. no. 531 00 92-48.
The filter oil contains a solvent to make it spread evenly
through the filter.You should therefore avoid skin contact.
Bevel gear
Put the filter in a plastic bag and pour the filter oil over it.
Knead the plastic bag to distribute the oil. Squeeze the
excess oil out of the filter inside the plastic bag and pour
off the excess before fitting the filter to the machine.Never
use common engine oil.This would drain through the filter
quite quickly and collect in the bottom.
The bevel gear is filled with the right quantity of grease at
the factory. However, before using the machine you
should check that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters
full with grease. Use HUSQVARNA special grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not normally need to
be changed except if repairs are carried out.
Spark plug
Air filter
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
•
•
Incorrect carburetor adjustment.
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust
and dirt in order to avoid:
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type
of oil).
•
•
•
•
•
Carburettor malfunctions
Starting problems
•
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug
electrodes, which may result in operating problems and
starting difficulties.
Loss of engine power
Unnecessary wear to engine parts
Excessive fuel consumption.
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs
poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first
before taking any further action. If the spark plug is dirty,
clean it and check that the electrode gap is 0.020 inch (0.5
mm). The spark plug should be replaced after about a
month in operation or earlier if necessary.
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if
conditions are exceptionally dusty.
Cleaning the air filter
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug
type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/
cylinder. Check that the spark plug is fitted with a
suppressor.
Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. Wash it
clean in warm, soapy water. Ensure that the filter is dry
before refitting it.
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.
Note:Use only HUSQVARNA replacement parts.Use of
other brands of replacement parts can cause damage to
your unit or injury to the operator or others.Your
warranty does not cover damage or liability caused by
the use of accessories and/or attachments not
specifically recommended by HUSQVARNA.
If the machine is used in dusty conditions the air filter
should be soaked in oil. See instructions under the
heading Oiling the air filter.
