Hydraulic Hoses; Water Hose; Water Supply; Water Dosage - Husqvarna K3600 MKII Operator's Manual

CAUTION! The machine should be upright. If the machine
lies on its side the weight of the blade makes it difficult to
make a correct adjustment.
• Tighten the knobs fully and the machine is ready to use.

Hydraulic hoses

WARNING! The power cutter must not be
!
connected to a hydraulic pressure
exceeding 150 bar (3000 psi).
• Before connecting the hoses: Ensure that the couplings
are clean, both on the machine and the hoses.
• Connect the pressure hose (A) from the hydraulic system
to the female coupling on the machine.
• Connect the other hydraulic coupling (B) to the male
coupling. This hose leads oil back to the container.
CAUTION! Two hose kits can be connected when hose
lengths exceeding 18 m are required. Do not connect more
than two kits as the couplings cause large power loss. See the
Technical data.
CAUTION! Make sure that the hoses can not be loosened
accidentally by turning the safety catches on the couplings to
the locked position before using the machine.
WARNING! When the machine is in operation
!
the hoses are under extreme pressure. Do
not try to connect or disconnect the hoses
when the hydraulic system is operational.
This can result in serious personal injuries.
SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS

Water hose

Connect the water hose to the water supply. The water flow is
activated by opening the check valve. Minimum water flow: 4
l/min Note that the machine's hose nipple is fitted with a filter.

Water supply

When you press in the switch lock (A) the water valve opens.
The water valve remains open and the switch lock (A) remains
pressed in as long as the switch (B) is held pressed in.

Water dosage

The water flow can be adjusted during operations with your
thumb.
Ample water flow is needed for maximal blade life.
CAUTION! The water pressure and water flow is extremely
important for the blade's cooling and service life. Inadequate
cooling shortens the life of the guide rollers, drive wheel and
the blade.
