MAINTENANCE

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the machine is equipped with a cooling system.

The cooling system consists of:

1Air intake on the starter.

2Fins on the flywheel.

3Cooling fins on the cylinder.

4Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).

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.

Spark plug

The spark plug condition is influenced by:

•Incorrect carburettor adjustment.

•An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of oil).

•A dirty air filter.

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 0.5 mm (0,020"). The spark plug should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if necessary.

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.

Shaft

The drive shaft end in the lower shaft should be lubricated with grease every 30 hours. There is a risk that the drive shaft ends (splined coupling) on models with two-piece shafts will seize if they are not lubricated regularly.

Air filter

The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:

•Carburettor malfunctions

•Starting problems

•Loss of engine power

•Unnecessary wear to engine parts

•Excessive fuel consumption.

Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if conditions are exceptionally dusty.

Cleaning the air filter

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.

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.

Oiling the air filter

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.

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 Husqvarna 326L is a top-tier trimmer designed for professional landscapers and dedicated homeowners who seek power and efficiency in their garden tools. Known for its durable construction and advanced technology, the 326L exemplifies Husqvarna's commitment to producing high-quality outdoor equipment.

One of its standout features is the powerful 25cc two-stroke engine. This engine not only provides high performance but also ensures that the trimmer operates efficiently. The design minimizes vibrations, reducing operator fatigue during extended use, a critical advantage for professionals who spend long hours landscaping.

This semi-automatic head allows for quick line feed, enabling users to quickly extend the cutting line without having to stop the machine. The T35 head is designed for efficiency, so users can focus on their work rather than dealing with frequent line replacements.

Durability is a key characteristic of the Husqvarna 326L. The trimmer is built with high-quality materials that resist wear and tear, making it suitable for heavy-duty use. The air filter system extends the life of the engine by keeping dirt and debris out, ensuring peak performance over time.

Another notable aspect is its versatility. The 326L can be equipped with various attachments, including brush blades and different types of cutting heads. This adaptability makes it suitable for a wide range of tasks, from trimming grass to clearing overgrown vegetation.
