Engine Cooling Air Intake
Check that the engine's cooling air intake is free from
leaves, grass, and dirt. If the cooling air intake is
clogged, engine cooling deteriorates, which can lead
to engine damage.
Throttle and Choke Cable
Check that the engine responds to throttle increases
and that a good engine speed is attained at full
throttle.
If doubts arise, contact the Husqvarna service
workshop.
If adjustments are necessary, they can be made as
follows for the cable:
1.
loosen the clamping screw for the cable's outer
casing.
2.
Check that the throttle cable is mounted in the
correct hole in the lever.
3.
Set the throttle lever at full throttle with no choke.
4.
Align the hole in the speed control lever with the
hole in the base plate by moving the lever. Insert
a 6 mm dia pin (or a screw) through the two
holes.
5.
Pull up the outer housing of the throttle cable until
the inner wire has almost no slack and tighten the
clamping screw.
6.
Remove the 6 mm pin.
7.
Make sure that the carburetor choke valve is
closed completely when the throttle lever is
moved to choke position.
8.
Check engine idle speed.
