Carburetor
Your Husqvarna product has been designed and manufactured
to specifications that reduce harmful emissions.
After your unit has been run 8-10 tanks of fuel the engine has
broken in. To ensure that your unit is at peak performance and
producing the least amount of harmful emissions after break
in, have your authorized servicing dealer, who has a revolution
counter at his disposal, to adjust your carburetor for optimum
operating conditions.
!
WARNING!
The complete clutch cover with shaft
must be fitted before the machine is
started, otherwise the clutch can become
loose and cause personal injury.
Operation
• The carburetor governs the
engine's speed via the
throttle. Air/fuel is mixed
in the carburetor. The air/
fuel mixture is adjustable.
To take advantage of the
engine's optimal output
the adjustment must be
correct.
• The setting of the
carburetor means that the
engine is adapted to local
conditions, for example,
the climate, altitude,
gasoline and the type of 2-
stroke oil.
• The carburetor is equipped
with three adjustment
possibilities:
L =Low speed needle
H=High speed needle
T =Idle speed adjuster screw
• The fuel quantity in relation to the air flow permitted by the
throttle opening is adjusted using the L and H-needles.
Turning the needles clockwise gives a leaner fuel mixture
(less fuel) and turning them anti-clockwise gives a richer fuel
mixture (more fuel). A leaner mixture gives high revs while a
richer mixture give less revs.
• The T-screw regulates the position of the throttle while the
engine is idling. Turning the screw clockwise gives a higher
idling speed while turning it anti-clockwise gives a lower
idling speed.

MAINTENANCE
Basic setting
• The carburetor is set to its basic setting when test run at the
factory. The basic setting should be kept during the
machine's first working hours. Thereafter the carburetor
should be finely adjusted. Fine adjustment should be carried
out by a skilled technician.
NOTE! If the sweeper rollers rotates/moves while the engine is
idling the T-screw should be turned anti-clockwise until the
sweeper rollers stops.
Rec. idling speed: 2 700 rpm.
Recommended max. speed: See "Technical Data" .
!
Conditions
• Before any adjustments are made the airfilter should be clean
and the airfilter cover fitted. Adjusting the carburetor while
a dirty airfilter is in use will result in a leaner mixture when
the filter is finally cleaned. This can give rise to serious
engine damage.
• Carefully turn the L and H needle to the mid point between
fully turned in and fully turned out..
• Do not attempt to adjust the needles beyond the stops as
damage can occur.
• Now start the machine according to the starting instructions
and run it warm for 10 minutes.
NOTE! If the sweeper rollers rotates/moves the T screw should
be turned anti-clockwise until the sweeper rollers stops.
Low speed needle L
Try to find the highest idling
speed, turning the low speed
needle L clockwise
respectively counter-
clockwise. When the highest
speed has been found, turn
the low speed needle L 1/4
turn counter-clockwise.
NOTE! If the sweeper rollers
rotates/moves in the idling
position, turn the idling
speed screw T counter-
clockwise until the sweeper
rollers stops.
WARNING!
If the idling speed cannot be adjusted so
that the sweeper rollers stops, contact
your service workshop. Do not use the
machine until it has been correctly
adjusted or repaired.
