    							WORKING TECHNIQUES
    English – 211155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19does not need to be a danger, you may be surprised 
    and lose control of the saw. Never saw stacked logs or 
    branches without first separating them. Only saw one 
    log or one piece at a time. Remove the cut pieces to 
    keep your working area safe. (52)
    4Never use the chain saw above shoulder height 
    and try not to cut with the tip of the bar. Never use 
    the chain saw one-handed!  (53)
    5 You must have a steady stance in order to have full 
    control over the chain saw. Never work standing on a 
    ladder, in a tree or where you do not have firm ground 
    to stand on. (54)
    6 Always use a fast cutting speed, i.e. full throttle.
    7 Take great care when you cut with the top edge of the 
    bar, i.e. when cutting from the underside of the object. 
    This is known as cutting on the push stroke. The chain 
    tries to push the chain saw back towards the user. If 
    the saw chain is jamming, the saw may be pushed 
    back at you. (55)
    8 Unless the user resists this pushing force there is a 
    risk that the chain saw will move so far backwards that 
    only the kickback zone of the bar is in contact with the 
    tree, which will lead to a kickback. (56)
    Cutting with the bottom edge of the bar, i.e. from the 
    top of the object downwards, is known as cutting on 
    the pull stroke. In this case the chain saw pulls itself 
    towards the tree and the front edge of the chain saw 
    body rests naturally on the trunk when cutting. Cutting 
    on the pull stroke gives the operator better control over 
    the chain saw and the position of the kickback zone. 
    (57)
    9 Follow the instructions on sharpening and maintaining 
    your bar and chain. When you replace the bar and 
    chain use only combinations that are recommended 
    by us. See instructions under the headings Cutting 
    equipment and Technical data.
    Basic cutting technique
    General
    • Always use full throttle when cutting!
    • Reduce the speed to idle after every cut (running the 
    engine for too long at full throttle without any load, i.e. 
    without any resistance from the chain during cutting, 
    can lead to serious engine damage).
    • Cutting from above = Cutting on the pull stroke.
    • Cutting from below = Cutting on the push stroke.
    Cutting on the push stroke increases the risk of kickback. 
    See instructions under the heading How to avoid 
    kickback.Terms
    Cutting = General term for cutting through wood.
    Limbing = Cutting branches off a felled tree.
    Splitting = When the object you are cutting breaks off 
    before the cut is complete.
    There are five important factors you should consider 
    before making a cut:
    1 Make sure the cutting equipment will not jam in the 
    cut. (59)
    2 Make sure the object you are cutting will not split. (58)
    3 Make sure the chain will not strike the ground or any 
    other object during or after cutting. (60)
    4 Is there a risk of kickback? (4)
    5 Do the conditions and surrounding terrain affect how 
    safely you can stand and move about?
    Two factors decide whether the chain will jam or the object 
    that you are cutting will split: the first is how the object is 
    supported before and after cutting, and the second is 
    whether it is in tension.
    In most cases you can avoid these problems by cutting in 
    two stages; from the top and from the bottom. You need to 
    support the object so that it will not trap the chain or split 
    during cutting.
    The following instructions describe how to handle the 
    commonest situations you are likely to encounter when 
    using a chain saw.
    Limbing
    When limbing thick branches you should use the same 
    approach as for cutting.
    Cut difficult branches piece by piece. (61)
    Cutting
    If you have a pile of logs, each log you attempt to cut 
    should be removed from the pile, placed on a saw horse 
    or runners and cut individually.
    Remove the cut pieces from the cutting area. By leaving 
    them in the cutting area, you increase the risk for 
    inadvertently getting a kickback, as well as increasing the 
    risk of losing your balance while working. (62)
    !
    WARNING! Never use a chain saw by 
    holding it with one hand. A chain saw is 
    not safely controlled with one hand. 
    Always have a secure, firm grip around 
    the handles with both hands.
    IMPORTANT! If the chain jams in the cut: stop the 
    engine! Don’t try to pull the chain saw free. If you do you 
    may be injured by the chain when the chain saw 
    suddenly breaks free. Use a lever to open up the cut and 
    free the chain saw.
    !
    WARNING! Never attempt to cut logs 
    while they are in a pile or when a couple 
    of logs are lying together. Such 
    procedures drastically increase the risk 
    of kickback which can result in a serious 
    or fatal injury. 
    						
    							WORKING TECHNIQUES
    22 – English1155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19 The log is lying on the ground. There is little risk of the 
    chain jamming or the object splitting. However there is a 
    risk that the chain will touch the ground when you finish 
    the cut. (63)
    Cut all the way through the log from above. Avoid letting 
    the chain touch the ground as you finish the cut. Maintain 
    full throttle but be prepared for what might happen. (64)
    If it is possible (can you turn the log?) stop cutting about 
    2/3 of the way through the log.
    Turn the log and finish the cut from the opposite side. (65)
    The log is supported at one end. There is a high risk 
    that it will split. (58)
    Start by cutting from below (about 1/3 of the way through).
    Finish by cutting from above so that the two cuts meet. 
    (66)
    The log is supported at both ends. There is a high risk 
    that the chain will jam. (59)
    Start by cutting from above (about 1/3 of the way through).
    Finish by cutting from below so that the two cuts meet. 
    (67)
    Tree felling technique
    Safe distance
    The safe distance between a tree that is to be felled and 
    anyone else working nearby is at least 2 1/2 tree lengths. 
    Make sure that no-one else is in this ”risk zone” before or 
    during felling. (68)
    Felling direction
    The aim is to fell the tree in a position where you can limb 
    and cross-cut the log as easily as possible. You want it to 
    fall in a location where you can stand and move about 
    safely.
    Once you have decided which way you want the tree to fall 
    you must judge which way the tree would fall naturally.
    Several factors affect this:
    • Lean of the tree
    • Bend
    • Wind direction
    • Arrangement of branches
    • Weight of snow
    • Obstacles within the reach of the tree: for example, 
    other trees, power lines, roads and buildings.
    • Look for signs of damage and rot in the stem, this 
    makes it more probably that the tree will break and 
    start to fall before you expect it to. 
    You may find you are forced to let the tree fall in its natural 
    direction because it is impossible or dangerous to try to 
    make it fall in the direction you first intended.Another very important factor, which does not affect the 
    felling direction but does affect your safety, is to make sure 
    the tree has no damaged or dead branches that might 
    break off and hit you during felling.
    The main point to avoid is letting the tree fall onto another 
    tree. It is very dangerous to remove a trapped tree and 
    there is high accident risk. See instructions under the 
    heading Freeing a tree that has fallen badly. (69)
    Clearing the trunk and preparing your retreat
    Delimb the stem up to shoulder height. It is safer to work 
    from the top down and to have the tree between you and 
    the saw.   (70)
    Remove any undergrowth from the base of the tree and 
    check the area for obstacles (stones, branches, holes, 
    etc.) so that you have a clear path of retreat when the tree 
    starts to fall. Your path of retreat should be roughly 135 
    degrees away from the intended felling direction. (71)
    1 Danger zone
    2 Retreat path
    3 Felling direction
    Felling
    Felling is done using three cuts. First you make the 
    directional cuts, which consist of the top cut and the 
    bottom cut, then you finish with the felling cut. By placing 
    these cuts correctly you can control the felling direction 
    very accurately.
    Directional cuts
    To make the directional cut you begin with the top cut. Aim 
    using to the saw’s felling direction mark (1) toward a goal 
    further forward in the terrain, where you would like the tree 
    to fall (2). Stand on the right-hand side of the tree, behind 
    the saw, and cut with a pull stroke.
    Next make the bottom cut so that it finishes exactly at the 
    end of the top cut. (72)
    The directional cuts should run 1/4 of the diameter 
    through the trunk and the angle between the top cut and 
    bottom cut should be 45°.
    The line where the two cuts meet is called the directional 
    cut line. This line should be perfectly horizontal and at 
    right angles (90°) to the chosen felling direction. (73)
    Felling cut
    The felling cut is made from the opposite side of the tree 
    and it must be perfectly horizontal. Stand on the left side 
    of the tree and cut on the pull stroke. IMPORTANT! It takes a lot of experience to fell a tree. 
    Inexperienced users of chain saws should not fell trees. 
    Do not attempt any task that you feel unsure of!
    IMPORTANT! During critical felling operations, hearing 
    protectors should be lifted immediately when sawing is 
    completed so that sounds and warning signals can be 
    heard.
    !
    WARNING! Unless you have special 
    training we advise you not to fell trees 
    with a diameter larger than the bar length 
    of your saw! 
    						
    							WORKING TECHNIQUES
    English – 231155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19Make the felling cut about 3-5 cm (1.5-2 inches) above the 
    bottom directional cut. (74)
    Set the spike bumper (if one is fitted) just behind the felling 
    hinge. Use full throttle and advance the chain/bar slowly 
    into the tree. Make sure the tree does not start to move in 
    the opposite direction to your intended felling direction. 
    Drive a wedge or breaking bar into the cut as soon as it is 
    deep enough.
    Finish the felling cut parallel with the directional cut line so 
    that the distance between them is at least 1/10 of the 
    trunk diameter. The uncut section of the trunk is called the 
    felling hinge.
    The felling hinge controls the direction that the tree falls in. 
    (75)
    All control over the felling direction is lost if the felling 
    hinge is too narrow or non-existent, or if the directional 
    cuts and felling cut are badly placed. (76)
    When the felling cut and directional cut are complete the 
    tree should start to fall by itself or with the aid of a felling 
    wedge or breaking bar. (77)
    We recommend that you use a bar that is longer than the 
    diameter of the tree, so that you can make the felling cut 
    and directional cuts with single cutting strokes. See 
    instructions under the heading Technical data section to 
    find out which lengths of bar are recommended for your 
    saw.
    There are methods for felling trees with a diameter larger 
    than the bar length. However these methods involve a 
    much greater risk that the kickback zone of the bar will 
    come into contact with the tree. (4)
    Freeing a tree that has fallen badly 
    Freeing a ”trapped tree”
    It is very dangerous to remove a trapped tree and there is 
    high accident risk.
    Never try to fell the tree that is trapped.
    Never work in the risk zone of the hanging trapped tree. 
    (78)
    The safest method is to use a winch.
    • Tractor-mounted
    • Portable
    Cutting trees and branches that are in tension
    Preparations: Work out which side is in tension and where 
    the point of maximum tension is (i.e. where it would break 
    if it was bent even more). (79)
    Decide which is the safest way to release the tension and 
    whether you are able to do it safely. In complicated 
    situations the only safe method is to put aside your chain 
    saw and use a winch.
    General advice:
    Position yourself so that you will be clear of the tree or 
    branch when the tension is released. (80)
    Make one or more cuts at or near the point of maximum 
    tension. Make as many cuts of sufficient depth as necessary to reduce the tension and make the tree or 
    branch break at the point of maximum tension. (81)
    Never cut straight through a tree or branch that is in 
    tension! 
    If you must cut across tree/limb, make two to three cuts, 
    one inch apart, one to two inches deep. (82)
    Continue to cut deeper until tree/limb bends and tension 
    is released. (83)
    Cut tree/limb from outside the bend, after tension has 
    been released.
    How to avoid kickback
    What is kickback?
    The word kickback is used to describe the sudden 
    reaction that causes the chain saw and bar to jump off an 
    object when the upper quadrant of the tip of the bar, 
    known as the kickback zone, touches an object. (56)
    Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the bar. 
    Normally the chain saw and bar are thrown backwards 
    and upwards towards the user. However, the chain saw 
    may move in a different direction depending on the way it 
    was being used when the kickback zone of the bar 
    touched the object. (8)
    Kickback only occurs if the kickback zone of the bar 
    touches an object. (4)
    Limbing
    Make sure that you can stand and move about safely. 
    Work on the left side of the trunk. Work as close as 
    possible to the chain saw for maximum control. If possible, 
    let the weight of the chain saw rest on the trunk.
    Keep the trunk between you and the chain saw as you 
    move along the trunk.
    Cutting the trunk into logs
    See instructions under the heading Basic cutting 
    technique.
    !
    WARNING! Kickback can happen very 
    suddenly and violently; kicking the chain 
    saw, bar and chain back at the user. If 
    this happens when the chain is moving it 
    can cause very serious, even fatal 
    injuries. It is vital you understand what 
    causes kickback and that you can avoid 
    it by taking care and using the right 
    working technique.
    !
    WARNING! A majority of kickback 
    accidents occur during limbing. Do not 
    use the kickback zone of the guide bar. 
    Be extremely cautious and avoid 
    contacting the log, other limbs or objects 
    with the nose of the guide bar. Be 
    extremely cautious of limbs under 
    tension. They can spring back toward 
    you and cause loss of control resulting 
    in injury. 
    						
    							MAINTENANCE
    24 – English1155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19
    General
    The user must only carry out the maintenance and 
    service work described in this Operators Manual. More 
    extensive work must be carried out by an authorized 
    service workshop.
    Carburettor adjustment
    Your Husqvarna product has been designed and 
    manufactured to specifications that reduce harmful 
    emissions. 
    Function
    • The carburettor governs the engine’s speed via the 
    throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the 
    carburettor. The air/fuel mixture is adjustable. Correct 
    adjustment is essential to get the best performance 
    from the machine.
    • The T-screw regulates the throttle setting at idle 
    speed. If the T-screw is turned clockwise this gives a 
    higher idle speed; turning it anti-clockwise gives a 
    lower idle speed.
    Basic settings and running in
    The basic carburettor settings are adjusted during testing 
    at the factory. Fine adjustment should be carried out by a 
    skilled technician.
    Rec. idle speed: See the Technical data section.
    Fine adjustment of the idle speed T
    Adjust the idle speed with the T-screw. If it is necessary to 
    re-adjust, turn the T-screw clockwise while the engine is 
    running, until the chain starts to rotate. Then turn anti-
    clockwise until the chain stops. When the idle speed is 
    correctly adjusted the engine should run smoothly in 
    every position and the engine speed should be safely 
    below the speed at which the chain starts to rotate.
    Correctly adjusted carburettor
    When the carburettor is correctly adjusted the machine 
    accelerates without hesitation and 4-cycles a little at full 
    throttle. It is also important that the chain does not rotate 
    at idle. If the L-jet is set too lean it may cause starting 
    difficulties and poor acceleration. If the H-jet is set too 
    lean the machine will have less power, poor acceleration 
    and could suffer damage to the engine.
    Checking, maintaining and 
    servicing chain saw safety 
    equipment
    Chain brake and front hand guard
    Checking brake band wear
    Brush off any wood dust, resin and dirt from the chain 
    brake and clutch drum. Dirt and wear can impair operation 
    of the brake. (84)
    Regularly check that the brake band is at least 0,6 mm 
    thick at its thinnest point.
    Checking the front hand guard
    Make sure the front hand guard is not damaged and that 
    there are no visible defects such as cracks.
    Move the front hand guard forwards and back to make 
    sure it moves freely and that it is securely anchored to the 
    clutch cover.
    Checking the inertia brake release
    Place the chain saw, with the engine switched off, on a 
    stump or other stable surface. Release the front handle 
    and let the saw fall by its own weight, rotating around the 
    rear handle towards the stump. (85)
    When the bar hits the stump the brake should be 
    activated. (85)
    Checking the right-hand brake trigger
    Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that 
    there are no visible defects, such as cracks. (87)
    Push the trigger up and forwards to check that it moves 
    freely and is securely hinged to the clutch cover. (86)
    Never carry or hang the saw by the trigger! This could 
    damage the mechanism and disable the chain brake. 
    (88)
    Checking the brake trigger
    Place the chain saw on firm ground and start it. Make sure 
    the chain does not touch the ground or any other object. 
    See the instructions under the heading Start and stop. 
    (89)
    Grasp the chain saw firmly, wrapping your fingers and 
    thumbs around the handles. (51)
    !
    WARNING! Contact your servicing 
    dealer, if the idle speed setting cannot be 
    adjusted so that the chain stops. Do not 
    use the chain saw until it has been 
    properly adjusted or repaired.
    Note! All service and repair work on the machine 
    demands special training. This is especially true of the 
    machine’s safety equipment. If your machine fails any of 
    the checks described below we recommend that you 
    take it to your service workshop.  
    						
    							MAINTENANCE
    English – 251155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19Apply full throttle and activate the chain brake by tilting 
    your left wrist forward onto the front hand guard. Do not let 
    go of the front handle. The chain should stop 
    immediately. (46)
    Throttle lockout
    • Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle 
    setting when the throttle lockout is released. (90)
    • Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to 
    its original position when you release it. (91)
    • Check that the throttle trigger and throttle lockout 
    move freely and that the return springs work properly. 
    (92)
    • Start the chain saw and apply full throttle. Release the 
    throttle control and check that the chain stops and 
    remains stationary. If the chain rotates when the 
    throttle control is in the idle position you should check 
    the carburettor idle adjustment.
    Chain catcher
    Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly 
    attached to the body of the chain saw. (93)
    Right hand guard
    Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that 
    there are no visible defects, such as cracks. (12)
    Vibration damping system
    Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or 
    deformation. Make sure the vibration damping units are 
    securely attached to the engine unit and handle unit. (94)
    Stop switch
    Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when 
    you move the stop switch to the stop setting. (47)
    CAUTION! The start/stop switch automatically returns to 
    run position. In order to prevent unintentional starting, the 
    spark plug cap must be removed from the spark plug 
    when assembling, checking and/or performing 
    maintenance. 
    Muffler
    Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
    Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to 
    the machine. (95)
    Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor 
    mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should 
    clean the mesh at least once a week. This is best done 
    with a wire brush. A blocked mesh will cause the engine 
    to overheat and may lead to serious damage.
    Note! The mesh must be replaced if it is damaged. If the 
    mesh 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 mesh is missing or 
    defective. (14)
    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.
    Starter
    Replacing the starter cord
    • Loosen the screws that hold the starter against the 
    crankcase and remove the starter. (96)
    • Pull out the cord approx. 30 cm and hook it into the 
    notch in the rim of the pulley. Release the recoil spring 
    by letting the pulley rotate slowly backwards. (97)
    • Undo the bolt in the centre of the pulley and remove 
    the drive disc (A), drive disc spring (B) and the pulley 
    (C). Insert and secure a new starter cord in the starter 
    pulley. Wind approx. 3 turns of the starter cord on the 
    starter pulley. Fit the starter pulley so that the end of 
    the recoil spring (D) hooks into the starter pulley. Now 
    assemble the drive disc spring, drive disc and the bolt 
    in the centre of the pulley. Carry the starter cord 
    through the hole in the starter housing and the starter 
    handle. Tie a good knot on the starter cord. (98)
    !
    WARNING! When the recoil spring is 
    wound up in the starter housing it is 
    under tension and can, if handled 
    carelessly, pop out and cause personal 
    injury.
    Care must be exercised when replacing 
    the return spring or the starter cord. 
    Wear protective glasses and protective 
    gloves. 
    						
    							MAINTENANCE
    26 – English1155296-38 Rev.1 2012-11-19
    Tensioning the recoil spring
    • Hook the starter cord in the notch in the pulley and 
    turn the starter pulley about 2 turns clockwise.
    Note! Check that the pulley can be turned at least a 
    further 1/2 turn when the starter cord is pulled all the 
    way out. (99)
    Stretch the line with the handle. Move your thumb and 
    release the line. See the figure below. (99)
    Replacing the return and drive springs
    Recoil spring (A)
    • Lift up the starter pulley. See instructions under the 
    heading Changing a broken or worn starter cord. 
    Remember that the recoil spring is coiled under 
    tension in the starter housing.
    • Remove the cassette with the recoil spring from the 
    starter.
    • Lubricate the recoil spring with light oil. Fit the 
    cassette with recoil spring in the starter. Fit the starter 
    pulley and tension the recoil spring.
    Drive disc spring (B)
    • Undo the bolt in the centre of the pulley and remove 
    the drive disc and the drive disc spring.
    • Replace the drive disc spring and fit the drive disc 
    above the spring. (100)
    Fitting the starter
    • To fit the starter, first pull out the starter cord and place 
    the starter in position against the crankcase. Then 
    slowly release the starter cord so that the pulley 
    engages with the pawls.
    • Fit and tighten the screws that hold the starter.
    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.
    • Remove the air filter after taking off the air filter cover. 
    When refitting make sure that the air filter seals tightly 
    against the filter holder. Clean the filter by brushing or 
    shaking it. (101)
    The filter can be cleaned more thoroughly by washing it in 
    water and detergent.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.
    A HUSQVARNA chain saw can be equipped with different 
    types of air filter according to working conditions, weather, 
    season, etc. Contact your dealer for advice.
    Spark plug
    The spark plug condition is influenced by:
    • Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
    • An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of 
    oil).
    • A dirty air filter.
    These factors cause deposits on the spark plug 
    electrodes, which may result in operating problems and 
    starting difficulties.
    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 0,5 mm. The 
    spark plug should be replaced after about a month in 
    operation or earlier if necessary. (102)
    Note! Always use the recommended spark plug type! Use 
    of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/cylinder. 
    Check that the spark plug is fitted with a suppressor.
    Lubricating the bar tip sprocket
    Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use 
    the special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease. 
    (103)
    Needle bearing lubrication
    The clutch drum has a needle bearing on the output shaft. 
    This needle bearing must be lubricated regularly.
    When lubricating, remove the clutch cover by loosening 
    the two bar nuts. Lay the saw on its side with the clutch 
    drum upwards.
    Lubrication involves engine oil dripping into the centre of 
    the clutch drum as it rotates. (104) 
    						
    							MAINTENANCE

    Cooling system
    To keep the working temperature as low as possible the 
    machine is equipped with a cooling system.
    The cooling system consists of:
    1 Air intake on the starter.
    2 Air guide plate.
    3 Fins on the flywheel.
    4 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
    5 Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder). 
    (105)
    Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more 
    often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling 
    system results in the machine overheating which causes 
    damage to the piston and cylinder.
    ”Air Injection” centrifugal 
    cleaning
    Centrifugal cleaning means the following: All air to the 
    carburettor passes through the starter. Dirt and dust is 
    centrifuged out by the cooling fan. (106)
    IMPORTANT! In order to maintain operation of the 
    centrifugal cleaning system it must be regularly 
    maintained. Clean the air intake to the starter, the fins on 
    the flywheel, the space around the flywheel, inlet pipe and 
    carburettor compartment.
    Winter use
    Running problems can occur when using the machine in 
    the cold and snowy conditions caused by:
    • Too low engine temperature.
    • Icing of the air filter and carburettor.
    Special measures are therefore often required:
    • Partly mask the air inlet on the starter to increase the 
    working temperature of the engine.
    Temperature -5°° ° °C or colder:
    For running the machine in cold weather or powder snow, 
    a special cover is available, which is mounted on the 
    starter housing. This reduces the intake of cold air and 
    prevents large amounts of snow from being sucked in. 
    (107)
    Part number: 505 45 04-01.
    CAUTION! If the special winterising kit has been fitted or 
    any measures have been taken to increase the 
    temperature these changes must be reversed before the 
    machine is used in normal temperature conditions. 
    Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in 
    severe damage to the engine.
    IMPORTANT! Any maintenance other than that described 
    in this manual must be carried out by your servicing dealer 
    (retailer).
