Cleaning The Engine And Muffler; Check The Safety System; Replacing The Light Bulbs; Main Fuse - Husqvarna R 422Ts Operator's Manual

Cleaning the engine and muffler
Keep the engine and muffler free from grass cuttings and dirt.
Grass cuttings steeped in petrol or oil on the engine can
increase the fire risk and impair cooling.
Allow the engine to cool before cleaning. If the dirt is mixed
with oil, remove it using a degreasing agent otherwise just
water and a brush.
Grass cuttings around the muffler dry quickly and constitute a
fire risk. Brush or wash them off when the muffler is cold.

Check the safety system

The machine is equipped with a safety system that prevents
starting or driving under the following conditions.
The engine must only be possible to start when the following
conditions are met:
• The cutting unit is in raised position.
• The parking brake is applied.
The engine must stop under any of the following conditions:
• The cutting deck is lowered and the driver rises from the
seat.
• The cutting deck is in its raised position, the parking brake
is not applied and the driver rises from the seat.
Check daily to ensure that the safety system works by
attempting to start the engine when one of the conditions
above is not met. Change the conditions and try again.

Main fuse

The main fuse is placed in a detachable holder under the
battery case's cover, in front of the battery. Type: Flat pin, 15
A.
The fuse for the power outlet is placed under the ignition
switch, behind the side plate on the control panel. Type: Flat
pin, 7,5 A.
Do not use any other type of fuse when replacing.
A blown fuse is indicated by a burnt connector. Pull the fuse
from the holder when replacing.
The fuse is there to protect the electrical system. If it blows
again shortly after replacement, it is due to a short circuit,
which must be fixed before the machine can be put into
operation again.
