MAINTENANCE

Air filter

The air filter (A) should be cleaned regularly removing dust and dirt to avoid:

carburettor malfunction

starting problems

reduced engine power

• unnecessary wear to engine parts

abnormal fuel consumption

Clean the filter after every

25 hours or more regularly if operating conditions are exceptionally dusty.

Cleaning the air filter

Dismantle the air filter cover (B) and remove the air filter. Wash in clean, warm soapy water. Ensure that the filter is dry before refitting.

An air filter used for a long period of time can never be cleaned completely. Therefore it is necessary to replace the filter from time to time with a new filter. 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 the section on “Oiling the air filter“.

Oiling the air filter Always use HUSQVARNA filter oil, order no. 503 47 73-01. The filter oil con- tains a solvent to make it spread evenly through the filter. You should therefore avoid skin contact. Put the filter in a plastic bag and the 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 on the machine. Never use com- mon engine oil. This would drain through the filter quite quickly and collect in the bottom.

Gearbox

There are three grease nipples (A) on the gearbox. Use a grease gun to top up with grease. This should be carried out after approxi- mately every 20 working hours. Use Husqvarna special grease, No. 503 98 96-01.

Note that the gearbox must not be filled completely with grease. The grease expands as the machine heats up during operation. If the gearbox was com- pletely filled with grease it could damage the seals and

lead to leakage.

The lubricant in the gearbox does not normally need to be replaced other than with repair.

Lubrication

Always lubricate the blade runners with special grease 531 00 60-74 (UL 21) before use.
