Checking The Engine's Cooling Air Intake; Cleaning The Engine And Muffler - Husqvarna Rider Pro 18 Operator's Manual

Checking the engine's cooling air intake

Clean the air intake grille in the engine cover
behind the driver's seat.
Open the engine cover.
WARNING!
The cooling air intake rotates when
the engine is running. Mind your
fingers.
Check that the cooling intake is free from leaves,
grass and dirt.
Check the air duct, located on the inside of the
engine cover, ensure it is clean and does not rub
against the cooling air intake.
A blocked cooling intake will interfere with the
cooling of the engine, which can damage the
engine.

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.
