Tire Pressures

All tires should be at 15 psi / 103 kPa / 1 bar.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION DO NOT add any type of
tire liner or foam fill material to the tires. Excessive loads
created by foam filled tires will cause premature failures.
Only use O.E.M. specified tires.

Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate freely. If
wheels do not rotate freely take the unit to your dealer for
service.
Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the warranty.

1. Remove nut and caster bolt.
2. Pull the wheel out of the fork and take care of the sleeve.
3. Reinstall in reverse order. Tighten caster bolt.
MAINTENANCE

Cutting Blades

To attain the best mowing effect, it is important that blades are
well sharpened and not damaged.
Replace blades that have been bent or cracked when hitting
obstacles.
Let the service workshop decide whether a blade with large
nicks can be repaired/ground or must be replaced. Balance
the blades after sharpening.
Check the blade mounts.

SIDE facing towards ground/grass (down) or THIS SIDE
UP facing deck and cutter housing.

treated. Replace with a Husqvarna bolt if required. Do not
