Lubricating The Bar Tip Sprocket; Needle Bearing Lubrication; Adjustment Of The Oil Pump; Cooling System - Husqvarna 545 TrioBrake Operator's Manual

Lubricating the bar tip sprocket

Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use
the special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease.

Needle bearing lubrication

The clutch drum has a needle bearing on the output shaft.
This needle bearing must be lubricated regularly (once a
week).
When lubricating, remove the clutch cover by loosening
the two bar nuts. Lay the saw on its side with the clutch
drum upwards.
Lubrication involves grease being squirted into the centre
of the crankshaft using a grease gun.

Adjustment of the oil pump.

The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by
turning the screw using a screwdriver or combination
spanner. The machine is supplied from the factory with
the screw set to middle position. Turning the screw
clockwise will reduce the oil flow and turning the screw
anti-clockwise will increase the oil flow.

running when making adjustments.

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.
The cooling system consists of:
1 Air intake on the starter.
2 Air guide plate.
3 Fins on the flywheel.
4 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
5 Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.
Note! The cooling system on a chain saw with catalytic
converter must be cleaned daily. This is particularly
important on chain saws with catalytic converters,
because the higher exhaust temperature requires efficient
cooling of the engine and the catalytic converter unit.
