EXHAUST MUFFLER
The muffler reduces the noise of the exhaust gases, but it is an
integral part of the exhaust as well. As such, its conditions affect
the motorcycle performance.
When the noise on the exhaust is too high, it means that the
deadening material set on the holed tube inside the muffler is
deteriorated.

BATTERY
The sealed battery does not require any maintenance work.
When electrolyte leaks, or other failures to the electrical system
are detected, apply to the HUSQVARNA Dealer.
If the vehicle remains unused for long periods, it is recom-
mended to remove battery from electrical system and store it
in a dry place.
- After an intensive use of the battery, it's advisable a standard
low charge (12V-7Ah battery: 0.7A for 8 hours).
- Rapid recharging is advised only in situations of extreme ne-
cessity since the life of lead elements is drastically reduced
(7A for 0.5 hours with 12V-7Ah batteries).
BATTERY CHARGER

- first turn counterclockwise fastening rear pin (1) then remove
the saddle;

- first remove the BLACK or BLUE negative cable, then the RED
positive cable (when reassembling, first connect the RED posi-
tive cable, then the BLACK or BLUE negative cable);
- remove the battery (2) from its housing.
Check, using a voltmeter, that battery voltage is not less than
12,5 V.
If not, the battery needs to be charged.
Using a battery charter with a constant voltage, first connect the
RED positive cable to the battery's positive terminal then the
BLACK or BLUE negative cable to the battery's negative terminal.
