MAINTENANCE
Spark plug
Needle bearing lubrication
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
The clutch drum has a needle bearing on the output shaft.
This needle bearing must be lubricated regularly (once a
week).CAUTION! Use only high quality bearing grease or
engine oil. See instructions under the heading Cutting
equipment.
•
•
Incorrect carburetor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of
oil).
•
A dirty air filter.
Adjustment of the oil pump
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug
electrodes, which may result in operating problems and
starting difficulties.
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.
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 set to
1
turn open. Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the
oil flow and turning the screw anti-clockwise will increase
the oil flow.
Note! 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.
Recommended settings:
Lubricating the bar tip sprocket
Bar -15":
1 turn from the closed position.
Bar 15" -18": 2 turns from the closed position.
Bar 18" -24": 3 turns from the closed position.
Bar 24" -:
4 turns from the closed position.
These recommendations apply to Husqvarna’s chain oil,
for other chain oils increase the oil flow by one step.
Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use
the special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease.
WARNING! The engine must be stopped
when making adjustments.
