5.1 Introduction - maintenance

For better operating reliability and longer service
life: check and clean the product regularly and
replace worn parts if necessary. All maintenance
and servicing must be done according to
Husqvarna's instructions. Refer to
terms on page 56 .
It is important that the blade disc rotates easily.
The edges of the blades should not be damaged.
The lifetime of the blades varies immensely and
depends for instance on:
• Operating time and size of the work area.
• Type of grass and seasonal growth.
• Soil, sand and use of fertilizers.
• The presence of objects such as toys, tools,
stones, roots and the like.
The normal life is 3 to 6 weeks when used under
favorable conditions. Refer to
on page 39 on how to replace the blades.
WARNING: Wear protective gloves.
Note: Working with blunt blades gives a poorer
mowing result. The grass is not cut cleanly and
more energy is needed, resulting in the product
not being able to maintain such a large area.

5.2 Clean the product

It is important to keep the product clean. A
product with large amounts of grass stuck to it
will not cope as well with slopes. It is
recommended to clean using a brush.
Husqvarna offers a special cleaning and
maintenance kit as an accessory. Contact your
Husqvarna central service.
CAUTION: Never use a high-pressure
washer to clean the product. Never
use solvents for cleaning.
