Checking the Engine's 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.
Checking and Adjusting
the 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.
