Long-Term Storage; Engine-Blade Shaft-Gearbox Speed Adjustment - Husqvarna FS7000 DL Operator's Manual

Transport
The saw is not equipped with a parking brake. It will slowly roll
away by itself if left in steep grade or hill. Never leave the saw
unattended in steep grade or hill unless properly scured.
WARNING! When moving the saw up and
!
down ramps, with engine on, use extreme
caution. For steep ramps, always use a
winch. Never stand below the machine.
Stand only beside.
• To go down a ramp, drive the saw backwards slowly.
• To go up a ramp, drive the saw forward slowly.
Lifting the saw
• Observe care when lifting. You are handling heavy parts,
which imply the risk of pinch injuries or other injuries.
• Always use the machine mounted lifting eye when lifting.
To transport by vehicle
• Secure the equipment during transportation in order to
avoid transport damage and accidents. Use the factory
installed tie down lugs on the saw, front and rear to
prevent movement during transport.
• Do not tow this saw with another vehicle as this may
damage drive components.
Storage
Store the equipment in a lockable area so that it is out of
reach of children and unauthorized persons.
• Stop the engine by turning the Engine start switch to the
STOP position.
• Put Speed control lever into the STOP position.
• If there is a risk of freezing, the machine must be drained
of any remaining water coolant in the gearbox.
For transport and storage of fuel and battery, see the section
"Fuel handling" and "Battery handling".
For transport and storage of Blades, see the section "Blades".

Long-term storage

Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is
carried out before long-term storage.
• Remove the blade for storage and store it carefully.
• Grease all nipples before storage.
• Disconnect negative terminal and secure in safe distance
from battery.
• Trickle charge the battery during long-term storage.
OPERATING
• When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank
must be full. This will minimize condensated water in the
fuel system.
• Store the machine and its equipment in a dry and frost
proof place.
• If the machine is stored outside, cover the machine.
• Check that the engine coolant's freezing point is adequate
for temperatures where the machine is stored.
• Drain water from gearbox
• Check and empty water in fuel filter water separator.
• Change engine oil after a long-term storage

marked on the diamond blade.
Engine speed
The engine speed on these machines does not need to be
changed from factory set speed. For more information, see
the "Technical data" section.
Blade shaft speed
The blade shaft speed on these machines should be checked
before fitting the diamond blade to the machine.
Never install a diamond blade if the blade shaft rotational
