LUBRICATION

50

 - Husqvarna

If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move 

the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. 

Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. 

Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated 

regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation.
If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it 

vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil 

begins to escape from the bottom.
Tip: Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape it so that 

it seals against the sheath and allow the cable to 

hang vertically from the bag overnight. If you do not 

succeed in lubricating the cable, it must be replaced.

Hydraulic System, Oil Level
The hydraulic oil and filter must be replaced every 300 

hours, and at least once a year. Contact an authorized 

service workshop.
Check the oil level in the hydraulic tank daily. The level 

shall be about ¾"-1" (19 - 25 mm) below the top of the 

tank.
Check connections, hoses, and tubes for damage or 

leaks. Replace or repair if doubtful.
Changing Oil and Filters
Oil and filter changes for the hydraulic system should 

be carried out by an authorized service workshop due 

to the risk of impurities enter the system.
