To start the Husqvarna 525LS Trimmer, ensure the switch is in the 'on' position, press the primer bulb 6 times, pull the choke lever to the choke position, then pull the starter handle until the engine fires. After it starts, move the choke to the 'run' position.
The correct fuel mixture for the Husqvarna 525LS Trimmer is a 50:1 ratio of unleaded gasoline to two-stroke oil. Ensure the gasoline is at least 89 octane and the oil is formulated for air-cooled engines.
To replace the trimmer line, remove the trimmer head cover, take out the spool, and insert the new line through the spool holes. Wind the line evenly and secure it in the notches, then reattach the spool and cover.
If the trimmer does not start, check the fuel mix, ensure the spark plug is clean and properly gapped, and verify that the air filter is clean. Additionally, inspect the ignition system for faults.
The air filter should be checked and cleaned after every 25 hours of operation, or more frequently if used in dusty conditions. Replace it if it is damaged or very dirty.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced trimmer head, damaged cutting attachment, or loose parts. Inspect the trimmer head and attachments, and tighten any loose components.
To adjust the carburetor, locate the idle adjustment screw and turn it clockwise to increase idle speed or counterclockwise to decrease it, until the engine runs smoothly without the trimmer head rotating.
Regularly inspect the cutting head for wear and damage. Clean it after each use to prevent debris buildup, and replace any worn or damaged parts to ensure optimal performance.
For winter storage, drain the fuel tank or add a fuel stabilizer, clean the trimmer thoroughly, inspect for any damage, and store it in a dry, sheltered area. Remove the spark plug and add a few drops of oil into the cylinder to prevent rust.
Common signs include difficulty starting the engine, misfiring, reduced power, and high fuel consumption. Inspect the spark plug for damage or deposits and replace it if necessary.
