To start the Husqvarna TS 248XD, first ensure the parking brake is engaged. Move the throttle to the choke position if the engine is cold. Turn the ignition key to the start position and release it once the engine starts.
The Husqvarna TS 248XD operates best on unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol content.
It is recommended to change the oil in your Husqvarna TS 248XD after the first 5 hours of use, and then every 50 hours of operation or once per mowing season thereafter.
If the mower won't start, check the fuel level, ensure the parking brake is engaged, and the spark plug is connected. Inspect the battery and fuses for issues. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact a professional technician.
To clean the cutting deck, ensure the mower is off and the blades have stopped. Use a garden hose to rinse off grass clippings and debris. Avoid using a pressure washer as it may damage the components.
The recommended tire pressure for the Husqvarna TS 248XD is 15 PSI for the front tires and 10 PSI for the rear tires. Regularly check and adjust the tire pressure for optimal performance.
To replace the blades, park the mower on a flat surface and disconnect the spark plug for safety. Use a wrench to remove the blade nut, replace the blade, and securely tighten the nut. Ensure the blade is installed in the correct orientation.
Ensure the blades are sharp and balanced, maintain proper tire pressure, and adjust the cutting height as needed. Regularly clean the deck and check for any obstructions.
At the end of the season, clean the mower thoroughly, change the oil, replace the air filter, and check the spark plug. Store the mower in a dry, protected area and remove the battery if stored in cold conditions.
Check the tire pressure and ensure all tires are correctly inflated. Inspect the blades for damage or dullness and replace them if necessary. Adjust the cutting deck to ensure it is level.
