Probably just the fuel filter in the gas tank. It disintegrates after some time and the carb then cannot get enough fuel. Remove and replace it. Do not store the unit for long periods with fuel in the tank to make it last longer.

I know this is an old post, however are these carbs adjustable?

[@justinnicolas2347]

gene earl no, all carburetors now are fixed and you can't adjust them.

​@@justinnicolas2347 old post... i know... yeah you can, theres hacks to do it.... i busted off an old car antenna and slid it around the adjustment.... gotta be a tight fit or it wont work... did this about 3 years ago, twice.

How can a new machine then need a new carb? Did you have to pay for it, if the fitted carb is obviously 'wrong' for the machine then the whole machine is not fit for purpose.

The machine worked fine for first few months. It was only on the next season work when the fault developed. The Husqvarna dealer and shop mechanic said that this was normal and would clear after few mins on warm up. Instead that fault got worse to a point were I stop using the hedge trimmer. I had to contact Husqvarna Ireland who collected the item and fixed free of charge. Since the repair the machine has worked flawlessly. Sometimes faults happen in new machines that's where the dealer network should resolve. In my case the dealer was not interested and just fob me off. He was never going to refund me.
