Husky 365 knock

[PC tree]

Hi all, I brought one of these (365 xt)

When it's in use and hot there's a bottom end knock. Anyone come across this ?

 

Cheers

Prob done four tanks 3/4 throttle

I look after my gear and did nearly 5 years as mechanic, so under stand engine noises etc but not so much the 2 strokes...

Strait back to dealer then . 2 year warranty I think . Get them to check it over ... Not good to use part throttle though . Flat out or tick over . They are ment to cut fl;at stick . Part throttle is part lubing on a 2 stroke .

I'll ring them, though I thought that there is supposed to be a run in period? It's literally done that little?

I think that the " run in " period is a thing of the past now a days . With manufacturing tolerances more accurate . Do not " lean " heavily on a saw till the rings have bedded in but always cut with the throttle wide open .
