The angle gear is filled with a
sufficient quantity of grease at
the factory. However, before
using the machine you should
check that the angle gear is
filled to 3/4 with grease. Use
HUSQVARNA special
grease.
Normally, the grease does not
need to be changed except
when repairs are carried out.
Air filter
The air filter 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 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
contains 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 common engine
oil. This would drain through the filter quite quickly and
collect in the bottom.
