Protective clothing
Warning
Risk of injury
Missing or poor protective clothing presents an increased safety risk.
–
Wear appropriate protective clothing such as helmet, boots, gloves as well as trousers and a jacket
with protectors on all rides.
–
Always wear protective clothing that is in good condition and meets the legal regulations.
In the interest of your own safety, Husqvarna Motorcycles recommends that you only operate the vehicle while
wearing protective clothing.
2.8
Work rules
Unless specified otherwise, the ignition must be turned off during all work (models with ignition lock, models
with remote key) or the engine must be at a standstill (models without ignition lock or remote key).
Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not a component of the vehicle, but can be ordered
using the number in parentheses. Example: bearing puller (15112017000)
Unless otherwise noted, normal conditions apply to all tasks and descriptions.
Ambient temperature
20 °C (68 °F)
Ambient air pressure
1,013 mbar (14.69 psi)
Relative air humidity
60 ± 5 %
During assembly, use new parts to replace parts which cannot be reused (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts,
expansion screws, seals, sealing rings, O-rings, pins, and lock washers).
In the case of certain screws, a screw adhesive (e.g.
Loctite
®
) is required. Observe the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
If thread locker (e.g.,
Precote
®
) has already been applied to a new part, do not apply any additional thread
locker.
After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change dam-
aged or worn parts.
After completing a repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.
2.9
Environment
If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect
the future of the motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, be environmentally aware,
and respect the rights of others.
When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws
and guidelines of the country in which you are disposing of them.
Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are
no legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized Husqvarna Motor-
cycles dealer will be glad to advise you.

Tip
Store the Owner's Manual on your terminal device, for example, so that you can read it whenever you
need to.
