Cleaning The Air Filter; Bevel Gear; Sharpening Grass Cutters And Grass Blades - Husqvarna 128R Manual De Instrucciones

Air filter
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to
remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:
S Carburetor malfunctions
S Starting problems
S Loss of engine power
S Unnecessary wear to engine parts
S Excessive fuel consumption
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more
regularly if conditions are exceptionally
dusty.

Cleaning the air filter

Remove the air filter cover and take out the
filter. Wash it clean in warm, soapy water.
Rinse thoroughly. Ensure that the filter is dry
before refitting it.
An air filter that has been in use for a long
time cannot be cleaned completely. The
filter must therefore be replaced with a new
one at regular intervals. A damaged air
filter must always be replaced.

Bevel gear

The bevel gear is filled with the right quan-
tity of grease at the factory. However, be-
fore using the machine you should check
that the bevel gear is filled three- -quarters
full with grease. Use HUSQVARNA special
grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not nor-
mally need to be changed except if repairs
are carried out.
