To start the Husqvarna 545FXT AT Brushcutter, ensure the stop switch is in the 'ON' position. Prime the fuel pump bulb until fuel is visible. Set the choke lever to the 'CHOKE' position and pull the starter handle until the engine fires. Then, move the choke to the 'RUN' position and pull the starter handle again until the engine starts.
Regular maintenance includes checking the air filter and spark plug before each use, cleaning the cooling system every 25 hours, checking the fuel system every 100 hours, and inspecting and replacing the trimmer head as needed. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions.
If the Husqvarna 545FXT AT won't start, check the fuel level and ensure it's fresh and correctly mixed. Inspect the spark plug for fouling or damage, and clean or replace it if necessary. Verify the air filter is clean and the choke is set properly. If problems persist, consult a professional technician.
Use a 50:1 fuel-to-oil ratio with fresh unleaded gasoline and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil. Mix them thoroughly in an approved container before filling the fuel tank.
To replace the trimmer head, first ensure the engine is off and the spark plug wire is disconnected. Use the locking pin to secure the shaft, unscrew the trimmer head by turning it counterclockwise, and replace it with a new head, securing it by turning clockwise.
Regularly maintain the brushcutter by cleaning the air filter, replacing the spark plug annually, and using fresh fuel. Ensure the cutting attachment is sharp and properly balanced to reduce vibration and improve efficiency.
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including goggles, gloves, ear protection, and sturdy footwear. Ensure the area is clear of bystanders and obstacles. Always operate the machine as per the manufacturer's instructions.
Excessive vibration may be due to an unbalanced or damaged cutting attachment. Inspect the trimmer head and cutting blade for damage and replace if necessary. Ensure all components are properly secured and balanced.
Adjust the carburetor by locating the idle and high-speed screws. Turn the idle screw to adjust the engine's idle speed and the high-speed screw to refine the engine's performance at full throttle. Consult the user manual for specific settings and procedures.
If the brushcutter is overheating, ensure the cooling fins and air intake are clean and free from debris. Check the fuel mixture is correct and avoid overloading the engine. If overheating persists, have the unit inspected by a professional.
