Important Notes

• Verify part number 587176901 before ordering
• Confirm compatibility with your specific Husqvarna equipment model, engine, and cylinder-head configuration
• The supplied product information identifies this component as an LCT 179/208 Valve Cover
• The exact technical meaning and complete model applicability of the LCT 179/208 designation are not further identified in the supplied product information
• Do not assume compatibility with every LCT engine or every engine carrying a similar 179 or 208 designation
• The exact dimensions, material, finish, mounting-hole pattern, fastener specifications, breather configuration, sealing design, and valve-clearance characteristics are not identified in the supplied product information
• The supplied information does not identify whether a valve-cover gasket, seal, breather component, grommet, hose fitting, fasteners, washers, or other associated components are included
• Compare the original valve cover's part number, shape, mounting pattern, sealing surface, clearance, breather features, and cylinder-head interface
• Valve covers that appear visually similar may have different mounting patterns, internal clearances, breather arrangements, sealing surfaces, or engine compatibility
• Inspect the associated valve-cover gasket or seal, cylinder-head sealing surface, fasteners, breather components, hoses, grommets, valves, rocker components, and surrounding engine area for wear or damage
• If the original cover was leaking, determine whether the cause is the cover, gasket or seal, damaged sealing surface, loose or incorrect fasteners, distortion, excessive crankcase pressure, or another engine condition
• Clean the mating surfaces carefully before installation and prevent old gasket material, dirt, sealant, or other debris from entering the engine
• Do not scratch, gouge, or otherwise damage the cylinder-head sealing surface while removing old gasket material
• Do not assume that additional liquid gasket or sealant is required unless specified by the applicable service procedure
• Avoid excessive fastener tightening, which may damage or distort the valve cover, sealing surface, gasket, threads, or cylinder head
• Use the applicable manufacturer specifications for fastener sequence and tightening torque
• If the valve cover is removed for valve service, verify applicable valve clearances and valvetrain condition according to the engine service information before reassembly
• Do not drill, grind, bend, weld, heat, reshape, enlarge mounting holes, or otherwise modify the valve cover to force compatibility
• This listing is for the LCT 179/208 valve cover; do not assume that the gasket, seal, breather components, hoses, grommets, valves, rocker components, fasteners, or other cylinder-head parts are included unless specifically stated
• Shut off the equipment, disconnect the applicable power source, and allow the engine to cool completely before servicing the valve-cover or valvetrain area
• After installation, verify proper cover seating, gasket or seal positioning, fastener retention, breather connections where applicable, component clearance, absence of oil leakage, and overall engine operation before returning the equipment to normal service
