MAINTENANCE

Needle bearing lubrication

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.

Adjustment of the oil pump

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.

Recommended settings:

Bar 18"-20": 0 turns from the closed position.

Bar 20"-24": 3/4 turns from the closed position.

Bar 24"-28": 1 1/2 turns from the closed position.

Bar 28" and longer: 1 3/4 turns from the closed position.

These recommendations apply to Husqvarna’s chain oil, for other chain oils increase the oil ﬂow by one step.

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.

2 Air guide plate.

3 Fins on the ﬂywheel.

4 Cooling ﬁns on the cylinder.

5 Cylinder 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.

”Air Injection” centrifugal cleaning

Centrifugal cleaning means the following: All air to the carburetor passes through the starter. Dirt and dust is pushed out by the cooling fan.

IMPORTANT! In order to maintain operation of the centrifugal cleaning system it must be regularly maintained. Clean the air intake to the starter, the ﬁns on the ﬂywheel, the space around the ﬂywheel, inlet pipe and carburetor compartment.
