MAINTENANCE
Air filter
The air filter must be regularly
cleaned to
remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:
• Carburetor
malfunctions
• Starting
problems
• Loss of engine power
• Unnecessary
wear to engine parts
• Excessive
fuel consumption
Clean the fiiter 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.
Rinse thoroughly.
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 reguIar intervals.
A damaged
air
filter
must always
be replaced.
Bevel gear
The bevel gear is filled with the right quan-
tity of grease
at the factory.
However,
be-
fore using the machine
you should
check
that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters
full with grease. Use HUSQVARNA
special
grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not nor-
mally need to be changed
except
if repairs
are carried out.
