Each model of a chainsaw has its own requirements for operating conditions and its own engine life. In particular, for constant long-term operation it is necessary to purchase an exclusively professional tool, since household models may not withstand such cruel treatment. But nothing in this world lasts forever, and therefore the repair of Huskvarna chainsaws may well be required.
Given the cost of debugging and the “uncleanliness” of many service centers, there is always a desire to do it yourself. Please note that the successful repair of Huskvarna chainsaws depends on two circumstances:
- Do you have even a rough idea about the design of gasoline powered tools?
- the presence on hand of a detailed block diagram for disassembling and assembling the saw.
The last point is especially important: without a detailed diagram, you should not even try to start the repair, since the consequences of your “amateur activity” may be refused even at the service center.
In general, the repair of Huskvarna chainsaws is at least good because the manufacturer always attaches to their products detailed instructions fully translated into the consumer’s language. Before you start, carefully read it, make statements. Starting to disassemble the saw, do not be too lazy to completely capture all the stages of work with a camera or a video camera: this is one of the most reliable ways to prevent the appearance of "extra" parts.
Most often, the repair of the Huskvarna-137 chainsaw involves the elimination of some problems with the carburetor. And this is not a matter of marriage, but as domestic gasoline, which can hardly be called ideal. The carburetor is disassembled in a dry and dustless room, and for this it is advisable to use a lining that will prevent the mysterious disappearance of parts of the mechanism.
Having disassembled it, you should rinse and clean it properly. It is often very dirty fuel filter screen, which needs the most thorough cleaning.
For saws that run a couple of years on relatively normal fuel, in most cases, such procedures are enough. Take out your photos, which depict the disassembly process, and begin to assemble the saw in the reverse order. Service center experts say that this is where the repair of the Huskvarna chainsaws is over.
But prevention is always better than cure. Most often (with the exception of mechanical damage to the case and chain) bad fuel is to blame for the malfunction. Never make a fuel mixture “in reserve", as the
octane number remains for a maximum of two weeks.
In addition, never store gasoline with fuel in a plastic container, as gasoline and plastic compounds form a huge amount of carbon deposits in the piston chamber. Pouring "expired" fuel into the gas tank, you are approaching the moment of breakdown of your saw.
Start the tool strictly according to the instructions, distinguishing between cold and hot start. Do not use it for purposes not intended by the manufacturer. Only under such conditions will it be extremely rare for you to repair the Huskvarna-142 chainsaw (or another model of this manufacturer)!
