Checking The Engine's Cooling Air Intake; Checking And Adjusting The Throttle Cable; Checking And Adjusting The Choke Cable - Husqvarna LZ5227TXPKOA, LZ6123LTKOA, LZ6127TKOA, LZ6130TXPKOA, LZ7230TXPKOA Operator's Manual

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 Cable
The illustations show Kawasaki engine. On
Kohler engine the cables are mounted under
the air filter housing. The throttle cable on
Kohler must be mounted in the middle hole.
The text is applicable for both engines.
Check that the engine responds to throttle
increases and that a good engine speed is
attained at full throttle.
If doubts arise, contact the service workshop.
If adjustments are necessary, they can be
made as follows for the lower cable:
1. Loosen the clamping screw for the
cable's outer casing and move the
throttle to the full throttle position.
2. Check that the throttle cable is mounted
in the correct hole in the lower lever, see
illustration.
3. Push the throttle cable's outer casing as
far to the left as possible and tighten the
clamping screw.
Checking and Adjusting the Choke
Cable
Kohler engine: See remarks above.
If the engine produces black smoke or is difficult to
start, this can be because the choke cable is
incorrectly adjusted (upper cable).
If doubts arise, contact the service workshop.
If adjustments are necessary, they can be made
as follows:
1. Loosen the clamping screw for the
cable's outer casing and move the choke
lever to the full choke position.
2. Check that the choke cable is mounted in the
upper lever, see illustration. Push the choke
cable's outer casing as far to the right as
possible and tighten the clamping screw.
