PRESENTATION

Welcome to the Husqvarna motorcycling Family!

Your new Husqvarna motorcycle is designed and manufactured to be the finest in its field.

The instructions in this book have been prepared to provide a simple and understandable guide for your motorcycle’s operation and care.

Follow the instructions carefully to obtain maximum performance and your personal motorcycling pleasure. Your owner’s manual contains instructions for owner care and maintenance.

The main work of repair or maintenance requires the attention of a skilled mechanic and the use of special tools and equipment.

Your Husqvarna dealer has the facilities, experience and original parts necessary to properly render this valuable service.

This “Owner’s Manual” is part and parcel of the motorcycle, hence, this had to remain with the motorcycle even when sold to another user.

This motorcycle uses components designed thanks to systems and state of the art technologies which are thereafter tested in competition.

In competition motorcycles, every detail is verified after each race in order to always guarantee better performance. For correct functioning of the vehicle, it is necessary to follow the maintenance and control table found on Appendix A.

IMPORTANT NOTICES

1)The TXC models are guaranteed COMPETITION motorcycles exempt from functional defects, the suggested maintenance table for competition use is shown on Appendix A.

2)TE vehicles are STREET LEGAL motorcycles (with LIMITED POWER ENGINE); they are guaranteed exempt from functional defects and covered with legal guarantee, if the STANDARD CONFIGURATION is maintained and the suggested maintenance table, shown on Appendix A is observed.

If TE vehicles are transformed in COMPETITION MOTORCYCLES (with FULL POWER ENGINE), the suggested maintenance table for competition use is shown on Appendix A.

RUNNING IN

Before using the motorcycle for sporting activities run in the engine for two hours at least to increase the life and the performance of the engine.

During the first half-hour of driving we advise keeping a low speed and avoiding sudden accelerations. Never open the throttle fully.

Change the oil and carry out all the necessary maintenance operations. After the first half-hour of driving, lightly increase the rev number, but never run the engine at full throttle. Never keep low speeds when the high gears are inserted.

Slowly drive the motorcycle for two hours before using it for sporting activities.

IMPORTANT NOTE IN CASE OF COLD STARTS AT LOW TEMPERATURES

It is recommended to briefly warm-up the engine at idle until, after having disengaged the starter, there is a normal response from the engine when opening the throttle.

In this way the oil can reach all the surfaces needing lubrication and the coolant will reach the necessary temperature for correct engine function.Avoid overheating the engine.

IMPORTANT

Never accelerate the engine after a cold start.

WARNING*: Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Never run the engine in a closed garage or in a confined area.

STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE AND THE ENGINE

- Press the engine stop button (3).

-Close the throttle (1) completely so that the engine will help slow down the motorcycle.

-For normal braking, gradually apply both front and rear brakes while down shifting (for maximum deceleration, apply the front and rear brakes firmly).

-Before the motorcycle stops, pull the clutch lever and shift gear lever (2) into neutral position.

COOLANT LEVEL CHECK

Check level (1) in right-hand radiator when engine is cold (place the motorcycle so that it is perpendicular to the ground). The coolant should be approximately 10 mm above cells and besides.

The radiator cap (A) is provided of two unlocking positions, the first being for the previous pressure discharge in the cooling system.

WARNING

Avoid removing radiator cap when engine is hot, as coolant may spout out and cause scalding.

NOTE

Difficulties may arise in eliminating coolant from varnished surfaces. If this occurs, wash off with water.

EN - 22 SPECIFICATIONS - OPERATION - MAINTENANCE

REPLACEMENT OF COOLING FLUID

Place a vessel on the L.H. side of the cylinder, under the Piping (1). Remove the exhaust pipe (a). Loosen the pipe strap (2) of the piping (1), take the pipe off the fitting that secures it to the engine, then SLOWLY open the R.H. radiator cap (3); slope the motorcycle on the left side to drain the coolant easily in the vessel.

When finished, refit the hose (1), secure it with the clamp (2) and refit the drain hose.

Pour the necessary quantity of coolant in the radiator then warm up the engine in order to eliminate any possible air bubbles. Periodically check the connecting hoses (see “Periodical maintenance card”): this will avoid coolant leakages and consequent engine seizure: If hoses (A) show cracks, swelling or hardenings due to sheats desiccation, their replacement shall be advisable. Check the correct tightening of the clamps (B).
