Fueling; Lights And Power Outlet; Bypass Valves - Husqvarna P524 Operator's Manual

Fueling

The engine runs on unleaded petrol with a minimum octane
rating of 95 (not mixed with oil). We recommend the use of
biodegradable alkylate petrol. (max. methanol 5%, max.
ethanol 10%, max. MTBE 15%)
WARNING! Petrol is highly inflammable.
!
Exercise care and refuel outdoors (see
safety instructions).
If you have spilled 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.
Wipe up any spillage. Materials contaminated by fuel must be
moved to a safe location.
IMPORTANT!
Do not use the fuel tank as a support area.

Lights and power outlet

Lights

Power outlet
The power outlet is switched on and off using power switch on
the control panel.
A seat heater or mobile phone charger are examples of
articles that can be connected to the power socket.
The voltage is 12 V.
PRESENTATION
The power outlet is fuse protected by its own fuse. The fuse
for the power outlet is placed in the electrical connection box,
behind the side plate on the control panel.

Bypass valves

Hydraulic pressure must be released in order for the ride-on
mower to be moved when the engine is shutoff.
The hydraulic pressure is opened and closed with a bypass
valve.
If you try to drive the machine without hydraulic pressure, it
will not move. The drive on the axle is disengaged if one valve
is open.
The P524 has two valves, one valve for the front axle and one
for the rear axle.
IMPORTANT! Always drive the machine with both valves
closed.
Bypass valve rear axle
• The hydraulic pressure is released by opening the locking
nut (1) 1/4-1/2 turn anti-clockwise, then the bypass valve
(2) 2 turns.
• The hydraulic pressure is switched on by closing the valve.
Close the valve nut (2) fully before tightening the locking
nut (1).
