refuelling. The engine should be

 

switched off, and the stop switch in

 

STOP position.

When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently.

Clean the area around the fuel cap.

Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.

If the cap is not properly tightened the cap might vibrate lose and fuel may escape from the fuel tank creating a fire hazard.

Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point before starting it.

Never start the machine:

•If you have spilt fuel or engine oil on the machine. Wipe off the spill and allow the remaining fuel to evaporate.

•If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.

•If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

•Unless the fuel cap is securely tightened after refueling.

Transport and storage

•Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with sparks or naked flames, for example, from electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/ switches or boilers.

•When storing and transporting fuel always use approved containers intended for this purpose.

Long-term storage

•When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.

OilGuard (K760 OilGuard)

•Machines fitted with OilGuard have a built-in system for identifying incorrect fuel mixtures.

•Once the machine is running, a detector reads the fuel quality which takes about ten seconds. If the correct amount of Husqvarna OilGuard oil has been used, the machine will run at a normal speed. If the wrong type of oil has been used, the machine senses this and restricts the speed of the engine to 3,800 rpm to avoid damaging the engine.

•In order for the machine to run at normal speed again, you must drain the incorrect fuel mixture and then fill the machine with a fuel mixture containing the correct ratio (2 %) of Husqvarna OilGuard oil.
