SAFETY

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or
embankments. The machine could suddenly
roll over if a wheel is over the edge or the edge
caves in.
WARNING! The engine and the exhaust
system become very hot during operation.
There is a risk for burns if touched. Let engine
and exhaust system to cool before refueling.
WARNING! The engine must not
be started when the driver’s oor plate or
protective plates for the mower deck’s drive
belt is removed.
WARNING! Do not drive up or down hills
with slopes greater than 10 degrees. Do not
drive across slopes.
CAUTION! Use protective glasses
for maintenance work.

Safe Handling of Gasoline

To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
much more care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
very ammable and the vapors are explosive.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and
other sources of ignition.
Use only approved gasoline containers.
Do not remove gas cap or add fuel with
the engine running. Let engine cool before
refueling.
Do not fuel the machine indoors.
Do not store the machine or fuel container
where there is an open ame, spark or pilot light
such as on a water heater or other appliance.
Before you begin refueling, minimize the risk
of static electricity
by touching a metal
surface.
Do not ll containers
inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer
bed with plastic
liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from the vehicle
when lling.
Do not overll fuel tank. Replace gas cap and
tighten securely.
Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck
or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, refuel such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the
fuel tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-
open device.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
Do not use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
If leaks arise in fuel system, the engine must
not be started until problem has been resolved.
Check the fuel level before each use and leave
space for the fuel to expand, as the heat from
the engine and the sun may otherwise cause
the fuel to expand and overow.

General Maintenance

Do not use the
machine indoors or
in spaces lacking
proper ventilation.
The exhaust
fumes contain
carbon monoxide,
an odorless and
poisonous lethal
gas.
Make sure that the equipment is in good
condition and that all nuts and bolts, especially
those fastening the blade attachments, are
properly tightened and torqued.
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels
as necessary.
Do not interfere with the intended function of a
safety device or reduce the protection provided
by a safety device. Check their proper operation
regularly. NEVER operate a machine with a
safety device that does not function properly.
Check grass catcher components and the
discharge guard frequently and replace with
manufacturers recommended parts when
necessary.
Do not change the settings of governors and
avoid running the engine with overly high
engine speeds. If you run the engine too fast,
machine components could be damaged.
To reduce the risk of re, keep machine free of
grass, leaves or other debris buildup. Clean oil
or fuel spills and remove fuel-soaked debris. Let
machine cool before storing.

Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Husqvarna Z 254 below.

How short should I cut the grass?

When the grass is longer than 4.5cm, the grass should be cut. The ideal length is between 3 and 4.5cm.

How often should I cut the grass?

In the spring, the grass should be cut every week, while in the summer once every two weeks is sufficient.

Can I mow the lawn when the grass is wet?

You can, but the result is better in dry weather. When the grass is wet, grass clumps can easily form and clog the mower.

Why is my Husqvarna Z 254 lawnmower not starting?

Make sure the ignition switch is in the ON position and that the safety features, such as the seat switch and parking brake, are properly engaged. Check if there is sufficient fuel in the tank and ensure that the spark plug and air filter are clean and in good condition.

How do I adjust the cutting height of my Husqvarna Z 254 lawnmower?

Locate the cutting height adjustment lever on the mower deck. Depress the lever and move it to the desired cutting height position indicated on the deck. Release the lever to lock it in place. Remember to adjust the cutting height with the engine turned off.

What should I do if my Husqvarna Z 254 lawnmower's blades are not cutting efficiently?

Regularly inspect the blades for sharpness and damage. Dull or damaged blades can affect cutting performance. If needed, remove the blades and sharpen or replace them following the manufacturer's recommendations. Also, check if the blade engagement switch is properly engaged.

How often should I change the oil in my Husqvarna Z 254 lawnmower?

It is recommended to change the engine oil in your lawnmower after the initial five hours of use and then change it every 50 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first. However, if the conditions are exceptionally dusty or the mower is regularly used in hot weather, more frequent oil changes may be necessary.

My Husqvarna Z 254 lawnmower is leaving uncut patches on the lawn. What could be the issue?

Check if the mower deck is set to the correct level. Uneven cutting can occur if the deck is not properly aligned or if the mower is operated on uneven terrain.
