An annual service carried out by an authorized service workshop is recommended to maintain your machine in the best possible condition and to ensure safe operation. Read “Maintenance” in the Safety Instructions section. 1) First change after 5-8 hours.
MAINTENANCE Daily Maintenance Weekly Before After At Maintenance interval least in hours once each year 25 50 100 300 Check/adjust throttle and choke cables Check the condition of belts, belt pulleys Change the engine oil 1) Replace the engine oil filter Clean/replace the spark plugs Replace the fuel filter Replace the air filter (paper filter) 2) Check the caster wheels (every 200 hours) Replace the air cleaner’s pre-filter 2) (foam) Check/adjust the mo
MAINTENANCE Battery Your mower is equipped with a maintenance free battery and does not need servicing. However, periodic charging of the battery with an automotive type battery charger will extend its life. • • • Always use protective glasses when handling the battery. Keep battery and terminals clean. Keep battery bolts tight. Recharge at 6-10 amperes for 1 hour To clean battery and terminals Corrosion and dirt on the battery and terminals can cause the battery to “leak” power. 1.
MAINTENANCE Ignition System The engine is equipped with an electronic ignition system. Only the spark plugs require maintenance. For recommended spark plugs, see Technical Data. 1. Remove the ignition cable boot and clean around the spark plug. 2. Remove the spark plug with a spark plug socket wrench. 3. Check the spark plug. Replace the spark plug if fouled, the electrodes are burned and if the insulation is cracked or damaged. Clean the spark plug with a steel brush if it is to be reused. 4.
MAINTENANCE Engine Cooling Air Intake Check that the engine’s cooling air intake is free from leaves, grass, and dirt. If the cooling air intake is clogged, engine cooling deteriorates, which can lead to engine damage. The cooling air intakes rotates when the engine is running. Mind your fingers. Check and clean the cooling air intake 8061-014 Throttle Cable Check that the engine responds to throttle increases and that a good engine speed is attained at full throttle.
MAINTENANCE Air Filter Maintenance If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly, the air filter may be clogged. If running with a dirty air filter, the spark plugs can become fouled. For this reason, it is important to replace the air filter regularly (see the heading Maintenance Schedule for the proper service interval). WARNING! The engine and the exhaust system become very hot during operation. Risk for burns if touched. Allow engine and exhaust system to cool at least two (2) minutes.
MAINTENANCE Replacing the Fuel Filter Replace the line-mounted fuel filter every 100 hours (once per season) or more regularly if it is clogged. Replace the filter as follows: 1. Move the hose clamps away from the filter. Use flat-nosed pliers. 2. Pull the filter loose from the hose ends. 3. Push the new filter into the hose ends. Position the filter with the “FLOW” arrow pointing up toward the fuel pump. If necessary, a soap solution can be applied to the filter ends to ease mounting. 4.
MAINTENANCE Parking Brake Visually check that no damage is found on the lever, links, or switch belonging to the parking brake. Perform a standstill test and check that there is sufficient braking action. To adjust the parking brake, contact the Husqvarna service workshop. WARNING! Faulty adjustment result in reduced braking ability and can cause an accident. Parking brake V-belts Check every 100 hours of operation. Check for severe cracking and large nicks.
MAINTENANCE Deck belt Deck belt removal Park on a level surface. Apply park brake.Lower the deck into the lowest cutting position. 1. Remove foot plate and belt shields. 2. Using a ratchet with a 9/16” socket on the spring idler bolt to relieve the tension on the belt. 3. Remove any dirt or grass that may have accumulated around the cutter housings and entire deck surface. 4. Carefully roll the belt over the top of the cutter housing pulleys. 5.
MAINTENANCE Pump Belt Replacing pump belt Park the mower on a level surface. Engage the parking brake. Belt removal 1. Remove the deck belt (see Deck Belt Removal in this section of the manual). 2. Remove clutch stop to access the belt. 3. Disconnect clutch wire. 4. Create slack in the belt by removing the spring on the pump idler arm. 5. The belt should now be able to be removed from the engine pulley and pump pulleys. Belt installation 1. Wrap the belt around the pulley 2.
MAINTENANCE Blade replacement WARNING! Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling. 1 2 3 • Remove blade bolt by turning counterclockwise. IMPORTANT INFORMATION To ensure proper assembly, center hole in blade must align with star on cutter housing. • Install new or re-sharpened blade with stamped “GRASS SIDE” facing towards ground/grass (down) or “THIS SIDE UP” facing deck and cutter housing. • Install and tighten blade bolt securely.
MAINTENANCE Adjusting the Mower Deck WARNING! Before performing any service or adjustment checklist: 1. Engage the parking brake. 2. Place the Blade switch in the disengaged position. 3. Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position and remove the key. 4. Make sure the blades and all moving parts have completely stopped. 5. Disconnect the spark plug wire from all spark plugs and place the wire where it cannot come in contact with the plug. Check the tire pressure before adjustment of the mower deck.
MAINTENANCE 4. Confirm measurements once again. Blade tips should be level in a side-to-side manner. In the rear, blade tips should be level to 1/8" higher than side-to-side measurement. In the front, blade tips should be level to 1/8" lower than side-to-side measurement. NOTE: This will place the mower deck in a base measurement position. Additional adjustment may be required to achieve desired cut for the type of grass or conditions being mowed.
MAINTENANCE Cleaning and Washing Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s life-span. Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use (after it is cooled), before the dirt sticks. Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck. Regularly clean deck and underside of the deck with normal water pressure. Do not use a high pressure washer or steam cleaner.
LUBRICATION 1 2 3 4 5 5 * 8011-672-5 12/12 Every year Lubricate with grease gun 1/52 Every Week Oil change 1/365 Every day • Lubricate with oil can Level check Filter change *Change transaxles (transmission) filters. General Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional movements during lubrication. When lubricating with an oil can, it must be filled with engine oil. When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated, use a high grade molybdenum disulphide grease.
LUBRICATION Lubricating the Cables If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation. If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil begins to escape from the bottom.
LUBRICATION Engine Oil 4. Engine Oil Filter • Drain the engine oil in accordance with the work description under the heading Engine Oil/Change Engine Oil. • Remove the oil filter. If necessary, use a filter remover. • Wipe new, clean engine oil onto the seal for the new filter. • Mount the filter by hand with +¾ turn. • Run the engine warm, then check that there are no leaks around the oil filter seal. • Check the oil level in the engine, fill if necessary. The oil filter holds 0.1 qt (0.1 liters) of oil.
LUBRICATION Engine Oil Levels Check the oil level in the engine when the machine is standing level and the engine is stopped. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and then replace it. Rotate dipstick counterclockwise until the cap drops down to the bottom of the threads. Take the dipstick out again and read the oil level. 8011-500 Remove the dipstick The oil level should lie between the markings on the dipstick. If the level is approaching the “ADD” mark, fill the oil to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick.
LUBRICATION Hydraulic Pump Fluid Change This transaxle is designed with an external filter for ease of maintenance. To ensure constant fluid quality levels and longer life an oil filter change interval of every 200 hours is recommended. The following procedure can be performed with the pump installed in the vehicle, and the vehicle on level ground. Apply the bypass valve and lock the vehicle parking brake. 1. Place an oil drain pan with a two gallon capacity beneath the oil filter.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem The engine will not start. The starter does not turn the engine over. Cause • Blade switch is engaged. • Steering controls are not locked in the neutral position. • Driver is not sitting in the driver’s seat. • Parking brake is not activated. • Battery is dead. • Contamination in the carburetor or fuel line. • Fuel supply is closed or the shutoff valve for the fuel tank is in the wrong position. • Clogged fuel filter or fuel line. • Ignition system faulty.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem The engine overheats. Battery not charging. The machine moves slowly, unevenly, or not at all. Mower deck not engaging. Transaxle leaks oil. Uneven mowing results. English-56 Cause • Clogged air intake. • Engine overloaded. • Poor ventilation around engine. • Defective engine speed regulator. • Too little or no oil in the engine. • Fouled spark plugs. • Poor contact with battery terminal cable connectors. • Charging lead is disconnected. • Parking brake on.
STORAGE Storage Winter Storage At the end of the mowing 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 to the sticky residues that can occur during storage. Add stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the storage container.
