Husqvarna 562 XP G Owners Manual - Page 35

MAINTENANCE Temperature 0°C (32°F) or colder: The intermediate wall is designed so it can be adjusted for running in cold weather, so that preheated air from the cylinder can pass into the carburettor space preventing icing of the air filter, etc. Lift off the air filter to obtain better access. Use a screwdriver to carefully knock away the plug in the partition. Heated handles 560XPG, 562XPG On models with the model code XPG both the front handle bar and the rear handle are equipped with electrical heating coils. These are supplied with electricity from a generator built into the chain saw. When the switch is pushed upwards, the heat is switched on. When the switch is pushed downwards, the heat is switched off. For temperatures below -5°C and/or in snow conditions a special cover is available, which is mounted on the starter housing. Electrical carburetor heating 560XPG, 562XPG On models with the designation XPG there is an electrically heated carburetor. Electrically powered heating prevents ice formation in the carburetor. A thermostat regulates the heating so that the carburetor always has the right working temperature. Part number: 522 98 65-01. These reduce the flow of cooling air and prevent large amounts of snow from being sucked into the carburetor space. IMPORTANT! If the temperature rises above 23°F (5°C) or 32°F (0°C) respectively, the starter housing cover MUST be removed and the accompanying plug, art. no. 503 40 59-01 fitted in the hole in the partition wall. Otherwise there is a risk of overheating, resulting in severe damage to the engine. English - 35
