MAINTENANCE

Winter use
Running problems can occur when using the machine in
the cold and snowy conditions caused by:
•
Too low engine temperature.
•
Icing of the air filter and carburetor.
Special measures are therefore often required:
•
Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the
working temperature of the engine.
•
Preheat the intake air to the carburettor by utilising the
heat from the engine.
There is a special winter kit available when using the
machine in cold and/or snowy conditions, this includes the
following:
•
a special air filter cover without air intake (A)
•
a cover for the filter holder (B)
•
a cover for the starter housing (C)
•
a special wear guard with an air duct (D) that routes
the hot air from the muffler to the carburettor
•
a special air filter with a coarser mesh size (E)
Temperature 0
°C (32°F) or colder:

using the three screws provided as shown in the figure.

Fit the air filter and air filter cover supplied with the winter
kit.
Temperature -5
°C (23°F) or colder:
Dismantle the machine’s wear guard, and fit the wear

particular attention that the opening on the air duct is
positioned in the centre of the hole in the air filter holder.

IMPORTANT! If the temperature rises above -5
°C
(23
°F) or 0°C (32°F) respectively the machine MUST be
restored to its normal set-up. Otherwise there is a risk of
overheating, which can cause severe engine damage.
IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that
described in this manual must be carried out by your
servicing dealer (retailer).
IMPORTANT! Use only HUSQVARNA replacement
parts. Use of other brands of replacement parts can
cause damage to your unit or injury to the operator or
others. Your warranty does not cover damage or liability
caused by the use of accessories and/or attachments
not specifically recommended by HUSQVARNA.
