1. The fluid left by cut grass is rather corrosive. That’s why it’s extra important to clean gardening tools and mowers especially, before storage.

2. When you service a lawn mower, be sure to empty out all of the petrol. Leaving petrol in the tank during storage may lead to a hard starting engine.

3. If your model has an assisted electrical start, the battery can actually use a full recharge during winter, so charging is recommended.

1. Inspect the cutting deck, blades and belts to ensure that there’s no visible wear and tear.

2. If needed, use the off-season to drop off your ride-on mower or a garden tractor to your local Husqvarna Dealer for a winter service. Filling up on oil, checking air filters and syncing the all wheel drive are some of the things you may want to consider checking.

3. Remember to fully recharge the battery at some point during the winter months, that way you’ll ensure a flying start to the season.

1. When it comes to strimmer and hedge trimmer maintenance, it’s easy to forget to remove smaller grass clippings that may have gotten stuck in between the blades. Take a few minutes to ensure that the machine has been properly cleaned.

2. Just like with the walk-behind mowers, it’s a good idea to empty out all of the petrol left in the tank. Petrol left in the machine for longer periods of time can make it tough to start the engine next season.

3. A professional trick for grass trimmer service is to remove the trimmer line and let it soak in fresh water during the winter season. By doing so it will maintain its flexibility, handle more strain and last longer.

4. For the best results – and prolonged product life, give your weed trimmer the deluxe treatment and turn it in for a day at the your local Husqvarna service centre.
