Carburettor Adjustment - Husqvarna 435 Workshop Manual

Carburettor adjustment

Conditions during adjustment
• The air filter should be clean and the cylinder
cover fitted when adjustments are made. Ad-
justing the carburettor with a dirty air filter will
give a too lean fuel mixture the next time the
air filter is cleaned. This can result in serious
damage to the engine.
• Mount, for this model, approved bar and
chain combination (see Technical data in the
Operator's Manual).
435/e 16"
440e 16"
• The chain should not be tensioned more than
that it remains ~ 0,2 inches to the bar.
