MAINTENANCE

LAWN MOWER

Always observe safety rules when performing any main- tenance.

TIRES

•Keep tires free of gasoline, oil, or insect control chem- icals which can harm rubber.

•Avoid stumps, stones, deep ruts, sharp objects and other hazards that may cause tire damage.

DRIVE WHEELS

Check front drive wheels each time before you mow to be sure they move freely.

The wheels not turning freely means trash, grass cuttings, etc. are in the drive wheel area and must be cleaned to free drive wheels.

If necessary to clean the drive wheels, be sure to clean both front wheels.

1.Remove hubcaps, locknuts and washers.

2.Remove wheels from wheel adjusters.

3.Remove any trash or grass cuttings from inside the dust cover, pinion and/or drive wheel gear teeth.

4.Put wheels back in place.

NOTE: If after cleaning, the drive wheels do not turn freely, contact a qualified service center.

BLADE CARE

For best results, mower blade must be kept sharp. Replace bent or damaged blades.

TO REMOVE BLADE (See Fig. 12)

1.Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with plug.

2.Turn lawn mower on its side. Make sure air filter and carburetor are up.

TO SHARPEN BLADE (See Fig. 13)

NOTE: We do not recommend sharpening blade - but if you do, be sure the blade is balanced. An unbalanced blade will cause eventual damage to lawn mower or engine.

•The blade can be sharpened with a file or on a grind- ing wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen while on the mower.

•To check blade balance, you will need a 5/8" diameter steel bolt, pin, or a cone balancer. (When using a cone balancer, follow the instructions supplied with balancer.)

NOTE: Do not use a nail for balancing blade. The lobes of the center hole may appear to be centered, but are not.

•Slide blade on to an unthreaded portion of the steel bolt or pin and hold the bolt or pin parallel with the ground. If blade is balanced, it should remain in a horizontal position. If either end of the blade moves downward, sharpen the heavy end until the blade is balanced.

961430096 specifications

The Husqvarna 961430096, also known as the Husqvarna 562 XP, is a high-performance chainsaw designed for professionals and serious enthusiasts. Renowned for its exceptional power-to-weight ratio, this model is ideal for demanding tasks, including felling, limbing, and bucking trees of various sizes.

One of the standout features of the Husqvarna 562 XP is its X-Torq engine technology. This innovative engine reduces fuel consumption by up to 20%, contributing to lower emissions without sacrificing power. The chainsaw delivers impressive cutting performance with its 60.3 cc engine, achieving a maximum power output of 3.5 kW. This efficiency not only translates to prolonged usage without frequent refueling but also promotes a cleaner working environment.

In terms of design, the Husqvarna 961430096 incorporates an ergonomic handle, providing superior comfort and balance during operation. The saw’s lightweight structure aids maneuverability, essential for precision cutting in various conditions. Additionally, the rear handle features rubber inserts for improved grip and reduced vibrations, enabling extended use without causing fatigue.

The Husqvarna 562 XP also incorporates advanced air injection technology, which helps filter out larger particles from the air intake before they reach the air filter. This results in less frequent air filter maintenance, thereby enhancing the chainsaw’s productivity and longevity. Coupled with the easy-access fuel and oil caps, which allow for quick refueling, this model is designed to keep users focused on the task at hand rather than maintenance.

Another key feature is the LowVib system, which minimizes vibrations felt by the user. This ensures a more comfortable working experience, especially during prolonged jobs, reducing the likelihood of operator fatigue and injury.

Safety is also prioritized in the Husqvarna 961430096, as it includes a chain brake and an inertia-activated kickback brake, which provide an essential safeguard against accidents. A see-through fuel tank lets users easily monitor fuel levels, preventing unexpected run-outs during use.

Overall, the Husqvarna 961430096 combines power, efficiency, and user-friendly features, making it an excellent choice for those needing a reliable chainsaw capable of tackling tough jobs with ease. Its blend of advanced technologies ensures both performance and sustainability in demanding working conditions. Whether you are a professional logger or a dedicated landowner, this chainsaw stands out as a formidable tool in the domain of outdoor power equipment.
