Husqvarna 336 EPA I Manuale Utente

32 – 

English

Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you 
move the stop switch to the stop setting.

Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.

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

Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor 
screen. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should 
clean the screen at least once a week. This is best done with 
a wire brush. A blocked screen will cause the engine to 
overheat and may lead to serious damage.

Note! The screen must be replaced if it is damaged. If the 
screen is blocked the machine will overheat and this will 
cause damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a 
machine with a muffler that is in poor condition. Never use a 
muffler if the spark arrestor screen is missing or 
defective.

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.

A muffler equipped with a catalytic converter significantly 
reduces the amount of hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides 
(NO) and aldehydes in the exhaust fumes. Carbon monoxide 
(CO), which is poisonous and odorless, is not however 
reduced! Consequently, never work in an enclosed or badly 
ventilated area. Good air circulation should always prevail 
when working in snowy hollows, ravines or in confined 
conditions.

Loosen the screws that hold the starter against the 
crankcase and remove the starter.

Pull out the cord approx. 30 cm (12 inches) and hook it 
into the notch in the rim of the pulley. Release the recoil 
spring by letting the pulley rotate slowly backwards.
