MAINTENANCE
Bevel gear
The bevel gear is filled with the right quan-
tity of grease
at the factory.
However,
be-
fore using the machine
you should
check
that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters
full with grease.
Use HUSQVARNA
special
grease.
The grease
in the bevel gear does not nor-
mally need to be changed
except
if repairs
are carried
out.
Sharpening
grass cutters and
grass blades
WARNING:
Always
stop the en-
gine before doing any work on the
cutting attachment.
This continues
to rotate even after the throttle has
been released. Ensure that the cut-
ting attachment
has stopped com-
pletely and disconnect
the HT lead
from the spark plug before you start
to work on it.
• See the cutting attachment
packaging
for
correct
sharpening
instructions.
• Sharpen
blades and cutters using a
single-cut
flat file.
• Sharpen
all edges equally to maintain
the
batance of the blade.
WARNING:
Always
discard
a
blade that is bent, twisted, cracked,
broken
or damaged
in any other
way. Never attempt to straighten a
twisted
blade so that it can be re-
used. Only use original blades
of the
specified type.
