Winter Use; Heated Handles - Husqvarna 365 X-torq Operator's Manual

Winter use

Running problems can occur when using the machine in
the cold and snowy conditions caused by:
• Too low engine temperature.
• Icing of the air filter and carburetor.
Special measures are therefore often required:
• Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the
working temperature of the engine.
Temperature -5°C (23°F) or colder:
For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow,
a special cover is available, which is mounted on the
starter housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and
prevents large amounts of snow from being sucked in.
Note! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or any
measures have been taken to increase the temperature
these changes must be reversed before the machine is
used in normal temperature conditions. Otherwise there
is a risk of overheating, resulting in severe damage to the
engine.

Heated handles

(372XPG)
On models with the designation XPG/G, the front as well
as the rear handle are equipped with electric heating
coils. These are fed with electrical current from an
integrated generator in the chain saw.
When the red mark on the switch is visible, the heating is
on.

MAINTENANCE
Electrical carburetor heating
(372XPG)
On models with the designation CARBURETOR
HEATING there is an electrically heated carburetor.
Electrically powered heating prevents ice formation in the
carburetor. A thermostat regulates the heating so that the
carburetor always has the right working temperature.
Canada
If this chain saw has the model code XPG/G then it is
equipped with an electrically heated carburettor. The
electrical heating prevents icing in the carburettor. A
thermostat regulates heating so that the carburettor
always has the correct working temperature.
