PROTECTION EQUIPMENT
Personal Protection Equipment
Consult your Husqvarna dealer when selecting
protective equipment. Dealers have a broad
assortment of equipment for professionals (such as
forestry workers) and knowledge about occupational
environment requirements and protective levels.
Before using the stump grinder, you may need to
cut back the object with a power saw. It is therefore
practical to use personal protective equipment that
fulls requirements for working with both stump
grinders and power saws.
The main difference is that you should wear protective
glasses when operating the stump grinder while the
wire mesh visor is sufcient when using a power saw.
Thus when using the stump grinder, it is recommended
to use both a wire mesh visor to protect your face
and protective glasses. A Plexiglas face guard is an
alternative, but has been found to scratch easily and is
susceptible to soiling and fogging.
You require the following personal protective
equipment:
Protective helmet (hard hat)1.
Ear protection2.
Face guard3.
Protective trousers4.
Protective glasses5.
Breathing protection (dusty work environment)6.
Protective gloves7.
First aid kit8.
Protective boots or steel-toed shoes9.

Air Filter
The engine air lter consists of a cyclone lter and a
ne lter.
Air is drawn in through the screen (1) on the cyclone
lter and coarser pollutants collect in the container (2).
The ne lter, consisting of a foam rubber pre-lter and
a paper lter cartridge, is located under the cowling
(3). The cowling and the cyclone lter can be removed
by removing the wing nut (4).
See Replacing the Air Filter in the Maintenance section
for cleaning instructions.
Running the machine with a dirty air lter will cause
the engine to run on partial choke and show the same
symptoms as a closed choke described above. It can
also be difcult to start.
Spark Plug
The engine spark plug is hidden under the ignition
cable boot. When performing service, it is important
that the engine cannot start accidentally. For this
reason, always remove the ignition cable boot from the

MAINTENANCE
Two Minute Rule
The machine may be tipped backward or on its side to
facilitate access for cleaning or service, but no longer
than 2 minutes.
If the machine is held in this position for too long, the
engine can be damaged by gasoline draining into the
crankcase. Should this happen, perform an extra oil
change on the engine. Remove the spark plug and
turn the engine over a few revolutions with the starter
handle before starting the engine again.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning and washing will increase the
machine’s lifespan. Make it a habit to clean the
machine directly after use, before the dirt sticks.
Check before rinsing that the fuel tank lid is properly in
place to avoid getting water in the tank.
Use caution when using high-pressure spray because
warning decals, instruction signs and the engine can
be damaged. Do not exceed 70 bar/1000 PSI water
pressure when cleaning.
Lubricate the machine after cleaning. This is
particularly important if the machine is to be stored.

LUBRICATION
Engine Oil
The engine should be warm (but not hot) when
changing the oil. Warm oil ows out faster and leaves
a smaller quantity of old oil inside the engine.
Place a suitable container underneath the oil 1.
drainage screw. Remove the oil dipstick and the oil
drainage screw on the back surface of the engine.
Tip: Make a channel using a piece of cardboard
to lead the oil directly into the container to avoid
soiling the machine chassis.
Allow the engine oil to drain into the container; 2.
then replace the drainage screw. Tighten it
moderately.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Used engine oil is a health hazard and
legislation prohibits disposal on the ground
or in nature; it should always be disposed
of at a workshop or appropriate disposal
location. Avoid skin contact; wash with soap
and water in case of spills.
WARNING!
Engine oil can be very hot if it is
drained directly after stopping the
machine. Allow the engine to cool for
approximately 2 minutes.
Make sure the machine is parked on at ground. 3.
Fill with new oil using the appropriate viscosity
according to the diagram, API Service SF-SG,
to the upper level mark on the dipstick = threads
on the oil dipstick. The engine takes 1.16 qts.
(1.1 liters) of oil. When checking the oil level, the
dipstick should not be screwed in.
Check that the rubber gasket is in position and 4.
screw the dipstick back into place. DO NOT
tighten it askew or too hard or you may damage
the threads.
Wipe up any spilled oil.5.

LUBRICATION
Checking Engine Oil Level
Make sure that the machine is parked on at ground
with the engine stopped when checking the oil level.
Unscrew the dipstick and wipe it using paper towel 1.
or a lint-free rag.
Replace the dipstick without screwing it in. 2.
Remove and check the level on the dipstick.
Fill oil as necessary to the lip of the dipstick hole. 3.
Oil type, see above.
Check that the rubber gasket is in position and 4.
screw the dipstick back into place. DO NOT
tighten it askew or too hard or you may damage
the threads.
Right wheel
Lubricate using a grease gun until the grease
squeezes out one nipple.
Use good quality MP grease. Grease from well-known
brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually
maintains a good quality.
8011-020
Throttle cable
Peel back the rubber covers at both of the cable
mountings. Grease both ends of the throttle cable
and move the controls to end stop positions when
lubricating. Ret the rubber covers on the cable after
lubrication. Cables with sheaths will bind if they are
not lubricated regularly. Binding in a cable may cause
malfunction.
If the cable binds, remove the cable and hang it
vertically. Lubricate it with thin engine oil until the oil
begins to escape from the bottom.
Tip: Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape it so that
it seals against the casing and allow the cable to hang
vertically from the bag overnight. If you do not succeed
in lubricating the cable, it must be replaced.

STORAGE
Winter Storage
At the end of the season, the machine should be
readied for storage (or if it will not be in use for longer
than 30 days). Fuel allowed to stand for long periods
of time (30 days or more) can leave sticky residues
that can plug the carburetor and disrupt engine
function.
Fuel stabilizers are an acceptable option as regards
sticky residues during storage. If alkylate gasoline
(Aspen) is used, stabilizers are unnecessary because
this fuel is stable. However, you should avoid
switching between regular and alkylate gasoline
as sensitive rubber components can harden. Add
stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the storage
container. Always use the mixing ratios specied by
the manufacturer of the stabilizer. Run the engine for
at least 10 minutes after adding the stabilizer so that it
reaches the carburetor. DO NOT empty the fuel tank
and the carburetor if you have added stabilizer.
Service
When ordering spare parts, please specify the
purchase year, model, type, and serial number.
Always use genuine Husqvarna parts.
An annual check-up at an authorized service
workshop is a good way to ensure that your machine
performs its best the following season.
To ready the machine for storage, follow these steps:
Clean the machine carefully, particularly the 1.
chassis and working equipment. Touch up
damage to the paint to prevent rust.
Inspect the machine for worn or damaged parts 2.
and tighten any nuts or screws that may have
become loose.
Change the engine oil; dispose of properly.3.
Open the fuel valve. Empty the fuel tank (1) and 4.
the carburetor (2).
Close the fuel valve.5.
Remove the spark plug and pour about a 6.
tablespoon of engine oil in the cylinder. Turn over
the engine so that the oil is evenly distributed and
then ret the spark plug. Put the engine in the
compression phase where the triangle mark on
the sleeve of the starter is aligned with the upper
hole in the starter. Note: Compression phase
occurs every second revolution.
Lubricate all grease nipples, joints and cables as 7.
described in Lubrication.
Store the machine in a clean, dry place and cover 8.
it for extra protection.
Cover the blade and cutters with a thin coat of oil 9.
to avoid rust.
48 - HUSQVARNA
WARNING!
NEVER store an engine with fuel
in the tank indoors or in poorly
ventilated spaces where fuel vapor
can come in contact with open ame,
sparks or a pilot light such as in a
boiler, hot water tank, clothing drier,
etc. Handle the fuel with caution. It
is very ammable and careless use
can cause serious damage to person
and property. Drain the fuel into an
approved container outdoors and
far away from open ame. NEVER
use gasoline for cleaning. Use a degreaser and warm water instead.
