STORAGE
50
Winter Storage
the machine should be readied for storage at the
end of the mowing season (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. Always use the mixing ratios specified 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 a stabilizer has been
added.
to ready the machine for storage, follow these
steps:
1. thoroughly clean the machine, especially under
the mower deck. touch up damage to the paint
and spray a thin layer of oil on the underside of
the mower deck to avoid corrosion.
2. Inspect the machine for worn or damaged parts
and tighten any nuts or screws that may have
become loose.
3. Change the engine oil; dispose of properly.
4. empty the fuel tanks or add a fuel stabilizer.
Start the engine and allow it to run until the
carburetor is drained of fuel or the stabilizer has
reached the carburetor.
5. Remove the spark plug and pour about a
tablespoon of engine oil into the cylinder.
turn over the engine so that the oil is evenly
distributed and then refit the spark plug.
6. Lubricate all grease zerks, joints, and axles.
7. Remove the battery. Clean, charge, and store
the battery in a cool place, but protect it from
direct cold.
8. Store the machine in a clean, dry place and
cover it for extra protection.
Service
When ordering spare parts, please specify the
purchase year, model, type, and serial number.
Always use genuine Husqvarna spare parts.
An annual check-up at an authorized service
workshop is a good way to ensure that the machine
performs its best the following season.
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
flames, sparks, or a pilot light
such as in a boiler, hot water tank,
clothes drier, etc. Handle the fuel
with care. It is very flammable and
can cause serious personal injury
and property damage. Drain the
fuel outdoors into an approved
container and store far away from
open flame. Never use gasoline
for cleaning. Use a degreaser and
warm water.
