Husqvarna CTH220TWIN Owner's Manual

To start the Husqvarna CTH220TWIN, ensure the parking brake is engaged, the PTO (Power Take Off) is disengaged, and the throttle is set to the 'fast' position. Insert the key and turn it to the 'start' position. Release the key once the engine starts.
If the mower won't start, check the fuel level, ensure the battery is charged, and verify that the spark plug is clean and properly connected. Additionally, make sure the safety switches are in the correct position.
Regular maintenance should be performed every 50 hours of operation or at the start of each mowing season. This includes changing the oil, checking the air filter, and inspecting the blades.
The Husqvarna CTH220TWIN lawn mower typically requires SAE 30 oil for general use. In colder temperatures, you may use SAE 10W-30 for improved performance.
Uneven cutting can be caused by dull blades, uneven tire pressure, or a misaligned deck. Ensure the blades are sharp, check tire pressure, and adjust the deck height if necessary.
To sharpen the blades, remove them from the mower, secure them in a vice, and use a file or grinder to sharpen the edge. Ensure the blades are balanced before reinstalling them on the mower.
To change the drive belt, first disconnect the spark plug. Remove the mower deck, then the old belt, and install the new belt, ensuring it is properly seated on the pulleys. Reattach the deck and reconnect the spark plug.
Excessive vibration may be due to unbalanced blades, debris in the pulleys, or worn-out bearings. Check and clean the pulleys, balance the blades, and inspect bearings for wear.
To clean the air filter, remove the filter cover, take out the filter, and clean it with compressed air or replace it if it is too dirty. Reinstall the filter and secure the cover.
Loss of power can be due to a clogged air filter, dirty spark plug, or carburetor issues. Check and clean the air filter and spark plug, and inspect the carburetor for blockages.
