Fuel safety

(Refuelling/Storage.)

WARNING! Fuel and fuel vapour are highly inflammable. Take care when handling fuel and engine oil. Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and inhaling fumes.

• Never refuel the machine while the engine is running.
• Always ensure there is adequate ventilation when refuelling and filling oil.
• Move the machine at least 3m from the refuelling point before starting it.
• Never start the machine:

1 If you have spilled fuel or engine oil on the machine. Wipe off the spill and allow the remaining fuel to evaporate.

2If you spill fuel or engine oil on yourself or your clothes. Change your clothes.

3If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

Transport and storage

• The fuel and engine oil tanks should be emptied before longer periods of storage or when transporting the lawn mower. Ask where you can dispose of surplus fuel and engine oil at your local petrol station.
• Always store the lawn mower and fuel so that any leakage or vapours do not risk coming into contact with sparks or naked flames. For example, electrical machines, electric motors, relays/switches, boilers, or the like.
• Always store fuel in an approved container designed for that purpose.

General working instructions

WARNING! This section describes basic safety precautions for working with the lawn mower. This information is never a substitute for professional skills and experience. If you get into a situation where you feel unsure about how to progress, stop and seek expert advice. Contact your dealer, service agent or an experienced lawn mower user. Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability

Basic safety rules

• Look around you:
• To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect your control of the machine.
• To make sure that none of the above might come into contact with the cutting equipment.
• Branches, twigs, stones, etc. should be removed from the lawn before you start to mow. Make sure the cutter does not hit foreign objects such as stones, roots or the like. This can make the cutter dull and bend the engine shaft.
• Only use the machine in daylight or in other well-lit conditions.
• Never lift up the lawn mower or carry it around when the engine is running. If you must lift the lawn mower, first switch off the engine and disconnect the ignition lead from the spark plug.
• Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such as icy ground.
• Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks, branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move

suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping ground.

• The lawn mower should not be used on inclines greater than 15 degrees. Inclines that are too great can result in fuel leakage
• The engine should be switched off when moving over ground that is not to be mowed. For example, gravel paths, stone, shingle, asphalt, etc.
• The brake handle must never be permanently anchored in handle when the machine is running.

Follow the instructions above, but do not use a lawn mower in a situation where you cannot call for help in case of an accident.

Basic mowing technique

WARNING! Make sure that your hands and feet do not come near the cutting attachment when the engine is running.

General

• Mowing slopes can be dangerous. Do not use the lawn mower on very steep slopes.
• The lawn mower should not be used on inclines greater than 15 degrees. Inclines that are too great can result in fuel leakage
• On sloping ground you should work along the slope. It is much easier to work along a slope than it is to work up and down it.
• Branches, twigs, stones, etc. should be removed from the lawn before you start to mow.
• Never lift up the lawn mower or carry it around when the engine is running. If you must lift the lawn mower, first switch off the engine and disconnect the ignition lead from the spark plug.
• Make sure the cutter does not hit foreign objects such as stones, roots or the like. This can make the cutter dull and bend the engine shaft. A bent axle gives imbalance and heavy vibration, which results in a great risk of the cutter becoming loose.

If any foreign object is hit or if vibrations occur stop the machine immediately. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. Check that the machine is not damaged. Repair any damage.

• Never mow more than 1/3 of the length of the grass. This especially applies during dry periods. Mow first with the cutting height set high. Then check the result

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

and lower to an appropriate height. If the grass is really long, drive slowly and mow twice if necessary.

• Never run with the machine when it is running. You should always walk with the lawn mower.
• Do not mow the lawn while walking backwards.

Cutting height

Shut down the engine before changing the cutting height.

The cutting height adjustment is spring assisted. The cutting height can be adjusted in 6 different steps.

Do not set the cutting height too low as there is a risk that the cutters might hit ground with unevenness.

To raise the cutting height move the lever to the left and then forward.

• To lower the cutting height move the lever to the left and then backward.

Machine's safety equipment

This section describes the machine's safety equipment, its purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the "What is what?" section to locate where this equipment is positioned on your machine.

WARNING! Never use a machine with faulty safety equipment. The machine's safety equipment must be checked and maintained as described in this section. If your machine fails any of these checks contact your service agent to get it repaired.

WARNING! Never use a machine that has faulty safety equipment! Carry out the inspection, maintenance and service routines listed in this section.

Cutting cover and protective cover

The cutting cover is designed to reduce vibration and to reduce the risk of cuts. Make sure the cutting cover is not damaged and that there are no visible defects such as cracks.

The protective cover is designed to reduce the risk of crush injuries and to catch a broken drive belt. Check that the protective cover is undamaged and that it is properly secured.

Engine brake handle

The engine brake is designed to stop the engine. When the grip on the engine brake handle is released the engine should stop.

Check the engine brake as follows:

Apply full throttle and then release the brake handle. The engine should stop and the drive should disengage.

The engine brake should always be adjusted so that the engine stops within 3 seconds.

Vibration damping system

Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to minimize vibration and make operation easier.

The handlebar system's steel tube and the cutting cover are designed to minimise the vibrations from the engine.

The machine's vibration damping system reduces the transfer of vibration between the engine unit/cutting equipment and the machine's handle unit.

LB448S, LB553S e This model also has 4 vibration dampers fitted on the handlebar unit to further reduce vibrations.

Check that the handles and vibration damping elements are not damaged.

WARNING! Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration. These symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin colour or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.

Muffler

The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.

WARNING! The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near combustible material! The muffler gets very hot in use and remains so for a short time afterwards. Do not touch the muffler if it is hot!

Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.

Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine.

Cutting equipment

Make sure the cutter does not hit foreign objects such as stones, roots or the like. This can make the cutter dull and bend the engine shaft.

Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced. Always ensure the cutter is well ground and balanced correctly.

Also check that the cutter bolt is undamaged and that the engine shaft is not bent.

Fitting the handlebar

Take care not to damage the cables and wires when you fold up the handlebar.

The upper part of the handlebar is attached with a sturdy handle nut on the baffle plate. Don't forget the washer between the plate and the handle nut.

If necessary, the handle can be turned slightly sideways with the handle joint. The handle can be set to different positions to achieve the best driving position, e.g. when mowing next to hedges or house walls.

The handle can also be adjusted vertically by turning the wheels by the attachment fitting on the chassis

Adjusting the clutch wire

The clutch wire must be adjusted after the first 8 hours of operation and subsequently when necessary.

The wire is properly adjusted when the wire bracket is aligned with the nut.

• Adjust the wire using the adjuster screw. Unscrew the screw clockwise or counter clockwise to extend or shorten the wire.

Dismantling and assembling the cutter

WARNING! Always wear heavy-duty gloves when servicing and maintaining the cutting equipment. The cutters are very sharp and cuts can occur very easily.

The ignition lead should always be removed from the spark plug before repair, cleaning or maintenance work.

Position the cutter with the spark plug upwards when servicing the machine.

Always empty the fuel tank before you place the lawn mower on its side.

Dismantling

• Unscrew the bolt holding the cutter.
• Remove the bolt, spring washer and cutter.

Assembly

• Place the cutter with the friction washer against the cutter bracket.

ASSEMBLY

• Make sure the cutter centres correctly on the shaft.

• To avoid vibrations, place the mower cutter so that the cutter bracket marking can be seen on the sides of the cutter.

• Fit the washer and tighten the bolt correctly. The bolt should be tightened with a torque of 45 - 60Nm

Assembling the mulcher plugs

• Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug.
• Position the cutter with the spark plug upwards when servicing the machine.
• Fit the leader pins into the holes on the cutting cover.

• Fasten the mulcher plugs from the top of the cutting cover.

OPERATING

Fuel

WARNING! Always ensure there is adequate ventilation when handling fuel.

Petrol

• Use good quality unleaded or leaded petrol.
• Use fuel with a low octane grade.
• If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank should be emptied and cleaned.

Engine oil

Check the oil level before starting the lawn mower. A too low oil level can cause serious damage to the engine.

• For the best result and function use HUSQVARNA four-stroke oil.
• If HUSQVARNA four-stroke oil is not available, you may use another four-stroke oil of good quality. Contact your dealer when selecting oil. In general SAE 30 is recommended.
• Never use oil intended for two-stroke engines.

Check the oil level before starting the lawn mower. A too low oil level can cause serious damage to the engine.

Oil level

The lawn mower should stand on flat ground when you check the oil level. Ensure the ignition lead has been removed from the spark plug before you open the oil filler cap.

Unscrew the oil cap, clean the dipstick located on the cap and insert the cap again without screwing it down. Check the oil level on the dipstick. If the oil level is low, fill using engine oil up to the upper level on the dipstick.

Only use recommended engine oil. See the Technical data section.

Fueling

WARNING! Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:

Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel. Always shut off the engine before refuelling. When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently. Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling. Always move the machine away from the refuelling area and source before starting.

Clean around the fuel cap. Clean the fuel and oil tank regularly. The fuel filter should be changed at least once a year. Contamination in the tanks causes malfunction.

Always move the machine about 3 metres from the refuelling position before starting.

Starting and stopping

WARNING! Note the following before starting:

Do not start a lawn mower unless the cutter and all covers are fitted correctly. Otherwise the cutter could come loose and cause personal injuries.

Always move the machine away from the refuelling area and source before starting.

Place the machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting attachment cannot come into contact with any object.

Keep people and animals well away from the working area.

Ensure the ignition lead sits correctly on the spark plug.

Starting: Open the fuel tap.

Starting

Pull the engine brake handle against the upper handlebar with your left hand.

Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right hand until you feel some resistance (the starter paws grip), now quickly and powerfully pull the cord.

Never twist the starter cord around your hand.

CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine.

Drive

To engage the drive, push the clutch lever forwards.

Stopping

• Stop the engine by releasing the engine brake handle. The drive is also disengaged when you release the brake handle. By releasing the brake lever a bit only the drive will be disengaged.
• Close the fuel tap.

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance

WARNING! Make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before cleaning, carrying out repairs or an inspection. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug.

Note that the drive belts will set during the first running-in period (5h) and it might be neccasary to adjust the tension. See instructions:

Air filter

The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:

• Carburettor malfunctions
  Starting problems
• Loss of engine power
• Unnecessary wear to engine parts.
• Excessive fuel consumption.

Clean the air filter daily, or more often in demanding conditions.

The air filter is dismantled once the air filter cover has been lifted off. Press in the catches on the top of the air filter cover and lower the cover.

Remove the air filter and check that it is undamaged. Replace with a new air filter if you believe it to be defective.

Clean the filter by knocking the filter carefully against a hard surface and blowing with compressed air from inside. Never brush the dirt away. Replace the air filter if it is very dirty.

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.

When reassembling, make sure that the filter completely seals against the filter holder.

Spark plug

WARNING! The muffler gets very hot in use and remains so for a short time afterwards. Do not touch the muffler if it is hot!

If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check that the electrode gap is 0.7 - 0.8mm . The spark plug should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if necessary.

CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/ cylinder.

Muffler

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may cause fire if directed against dry and combustible material.

Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.

Cutter

WARNING! Always wear heavy-duty gloves when repairing the cutting attachment. The blades are very sharp and can easily cause cuts.

It is important to have a sharp and correctly balanced cutter. Loosen the bolt holding the cutter and leave the cutter at a service workshop at least once a year for grinding and balancing. An appropriate time to do this is after the mowing season has finished.

If the cutter or cutter bracket need to be changed you must replace the cutter bolt, washer and friction washer at the same time.

The bolt should be tightened with a torque of 45-60 Nm when you fit the cutter again. See instructions under the heading Assembly.

If the cutter hits foreign objects such as stones, roots or the like the cutter will slip against the cutter bracket. This may mean that the contact surface of the cutter bracket appears slightly worn, which is completely normal. This is a safety device, which reduces the risk of the engine shaft becoming bent.

Changing the oil

The engine oil should be changed the first time after 5 hours running time.

The engine oil should be changed each year and every 25 working hours.

When changing the oil proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug.
• Empty the fuel tank.
• Close the fuel tap.

• Unscrew the oil filler cap.

Place a suitable vessel to collect the oil in.

• Drain the oil by tipping the engine so that the oil runs out through the filler pipe.

• Ask where you can dispose of surplus engine oil at your local petrol station.
• Fill with new engine oil of a good quality. See the Technical data section.
• Now insert the dipstick again, without tightening it. Check the oil level with the dipstick on the oil filler cap. If the oil level is low, fill using engine oil up to the upper level on the dipstick.

• Screw on the oil filler cap.

Drive and gearbox

Ensure the wheels and wheel axles are clean and free from leaves, grass, etc. It is also important to keep clean around the drive gearbox.

• Remove the protective cover by unscrewing the screws.
• Clean the gearbox with a brush. Also check that the drive belt and belt pulley are undamaged, for example, no cracks.

Replacing and adjusting the V-belt

• Remove the protective cover by unscrewing the screws.

• Remove the hubcap on the front wheel by the gearbox, prize carefully with a screwdriver. Unscrew the carriage bolt and remove the wheel.

• Remove the belt from the deck belt pulley. Check that the deck belt pulleys move easily on the axle, spray with penetrating oil between and behind the pulleys and grease the axle.
• Fit the new belt and make sure it fits correctly by the ball-bearing before adjusting the belt.

• Adjust the belt by moving the ball-bearing up or down.

• A new belt stretches and becomes longer, so adjust the belt again after a few hours of operation.
• Screw on the belt cover and test run the machine.

Replacing and adjusting the centre belt

The centre belt runs between the engine shaft and the gearbox.

• Remove the cutter. (only when replacing belt)
• Unscrew the adjuster screws a few turns.

• Replace the belt with a new one and tighten the adjustment screws a little. (only when replacing belt)
• Adjust the belt by moving the gear forwards or backwards.

• The belt should be stretched so that it can move 6-10mm in the centre. That corresponds to a pull of approx. 3 kg. Use a fishing scale to check.

• Tighten the adjustment screws properly. (3 Nm)
• Check the drive operation, as adjustment of the gear affects the belt tension in the gearbox.

Cleaning

Do not use a high pressure washer to clean the machine. Never flush water directly on the engine.

When cleaning under the cutting deck, turn the machine with the spark plug upwards. Empty the fuel tank.

Trouble shooting

If the engine does not start, check the following:

• Replace the fuel with new, clean fuel.
• Check that the fuel valve is open.
• Check that the engine brake works correctly and is undamaged.
  Clean the spark plug. Check that the electrode gap is 0.7 - 0.8mm
• Check the airfilter and clean it when it's necessary.
• If the engine does not start after taking these actions, contact the nearest authorised service agent.
• If the cutting result is not satisfactory and the grass straws are fuzzy on the cut face, replace the cutter.
