mers.
Machine's safety equipment
This section describes the machine's safe- ty equipment, its purpose, and how checks
and maintenance should be carried out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the
"What is what" section to locate where this equipment is positioned on your machine.
The life span of the machine can be re- duced and the risk of accidents can in-
crease if machine mah_tenance is not car- ried out correctly and if service and/or re-
pairs are not carried out professionally, if you need further information please contact
your nearest service workshop. IMPORTANT! All servicing and repair work
on the machine requires special training. This is especially true of the machine's safety
equipment, if your machine fails any of the checks described below you must contact
/our service agent. When you buy any of our 3roducts we guarantee the availability of pro-

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Stop switch
Make sure the engine stops when you push and hold the stop switch.
Cutting attachment guard
Harness quick release
There is an easily accessible, harness quick release fitted at the front in case of an emergency that requires you to free your-
self from the machine and harness. See instructions under the heading Adjust-
ing the harness.
This guard is intended to prevent loose objects from being thrown towards the
operator. The guard also protects the operator from accidental contact with the cutting attachment.
Check that the guard is undamaged and not cracked. Replace the guard if it has been
exposed to impact or is cracked.
Always use the recommended guard for the cutting attachment you are using. See the
"Technical data" section.
I_l ARNING: Never use a cutting
attachment without an approved guard. See the section on "Technical
data". If an incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can cause serious
persona injury.
Use of incorrectly wound trimmer line or an incorrect cutting attachment increases the
level of vibration.
_ WARNING: Overexposure to
vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation.
Contact your doctor if you experi- ence symptoms of overexposure to
vibration. Such symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength,
changes in skin color or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists. The
risk increases at low temperatures.
Check that the harness straps are correctly positioned. Once the harness and machine
have been adjusted, check that the harness quick release works correctIy.
Muffler
The muffier is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct the exhaust gases away from the operator.
CAUTION? Muffler is fitted with a catalytic converter designed to reduce harmful ex-
haust gases.
The muffler on this unit is equipped with a special spark arrestor mesh. The mesh should be checked and. if necessary.
cleaned by a servicing dealer. A blocked
mesh will cause the machine to overheat,
which can lead to serious damage. Never
use a muffler with a defective spark arrestor mesh. See the Maintenance section.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For mufflers, it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, main- taining, and servicing your machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
0
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine.
_ WARNING: Mufflers fittedwith
catalytic converters get very hot dur- ing use and remain so for some time
after stopping. This also applies at idle speed. Contact can result in
burns to the skin. Remember the risk of fire!
_ WARNING: The inside of the
muffler contain chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with
these elements in the event of a damaged muffler.
_1 WARNING: Bear in mind that:
Engine exhaust fumes contain car- bon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For
this reason you should not start or run the machine indoors, or any- where that is poorly ventilated.
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks
which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near com-
bustible material!
Locking nut
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting attachment.
When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite
direction to the direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove it. undo the
nut in the same direction as the cutting at-
tachment rotates. (CAUTION! The nut has
a left-hand thread.) Tighten the nut using
the socket spanner.
The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be so worn that you can turn it by
hand. The lining should offer a resistance of at least 1.5 Nm. The nut should be re-
)laced after it has been put on approx. 10
times.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your cutting equipment in order to:
Reduce the risk of blade thrust.
Obtain maximum cutting performance.
Extend the life of cutting equipment.
IMPORTANT!
Only use cutting attachments with the guards we recommend! See the section on
"Technical data".
Refer to the instructions for the cutting attach-
ment to check the correct way to load the trimmer line and the correct line diameter.
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharp- ened! Follow our recommendations. Also re-
fer to the instructions on the blade packaging.
Maintain the correct blade setting! Follow our
instructions and use the recommended file gauge.
_ WARNING: Always stop the en-
gine before doing any work on the cutting attachment. This continues
to rotate even after the throttle has been released. Ensure that the
cutting attachment has stopped completely and disconnect the
lead from the spark plug before you start to work on it.
_lb WARNING: Using an incorrect
cutting attachment or an incorrect- ly sharpened blade increases the
risk of kickback.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Cutting equipment
Grass blades and grass cutters are in- tended for cutting coarse grass.
A trimmer head is intended for trimming grass.
I;t_ :"<h _#
General rules
Only use cutting attachments with the guards we recommend! See the section on Technical data.
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharp-
ened! Follow our instructions and use the recommended file gauge. An incorrectly
sharpened or damaged blade increases the risk of accidents.
Sharpening grass cutters and grass blades
See the cutting attachment packaging for
correct sharpening instructions. Sharpen blades and cutters using a single-cut flat file.
Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the
balance of the blade.
,_ WARNING: Always discard a
blade that is bent, twisted, cracked, broken or damaged in any other way. Never attempt to straighten
a twisted blade so that it can be re- used. Only use original blades of the specified type.
Trimmer head
IMPORTANT!
Always ensure the trimmer line is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, other- wise the machine will generate harmful
vibration.
Only use the recommended cutting at-
tachments. See the section on "Technical data".
Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment
should always be replaced.
Smaller machines generally require small
trimmer heads and vice versa. This is be-
cause when clearing using trimmer line
the engine must throw out the trimmer
line radially from the trimmer head and
overcome the resistance of the grass
being cleared.
The length of the trimmer line is also im-
portant. A longer trimmer line requires greater engine power than a shorter
trimmer line of the same diameter.
Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer
guard is intact. This is used to cut the
trimmer line to the correct length.
To increase the life of the trimmer line it
can be soaked in water for a couple of
days. This will make the line tougher so that it lasts longer.

STARTING AND STOPPING
Check before starting
Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or
by the centre hoIe. The most common rea- son why cracks are formed is that sharp
corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade
has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support
flange if it is cracked.
Ensure the locking nut has not lost its cap- tive force. The nut lock should have a
locking force of at least 1.5 Nm. The tight- ening torque of the locking nut should be
35-50 Nm.

wind, intense coid, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and often brings added
risks, such as icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc.
3. Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the area around you for possible ob-
stacles (roots, rocks, branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move suddenly. Take
great care when working on stoping ground.
The ABC of clearing
Always use the correct equipment.
Make sure the equipment is well adjusted.
Follow the safety precautions.
Organise your work carefully.
Always use full throttle when starting to cut with the blade.
Always use sharp blades.
Avoid stones.
WARNING: Neither the operator
of the machine nor anyone else may attempt to remove the cut ma- terial while the engine is running or
the cutting equipment is rotating, as this can result in serious injury. Stop the engine and cutting equip=
ment before you remove material that has wound around the blade
shaft as otherwise there is a risk of injury. The bevel gear can get hot during use and may remain so for a
while afterwards. You could get burned if you touch it,
WARNING: Watch out for
thrown objects. Always wear ap= proved eye protection. Never lean
over the cutting attachment guard.
Stones, rubbish, etc. can be thrown up into the eyes causing blindness
or serious injury. Keep unautho- rised persons at a distance. Chil-
dren, animals, onlookers and help- ers should be kept outside the
safety zone of 15 m. Stop the ma- chine immediately if anyone ap-
proaches. Never swing the ma- chine around without first checking
behind you to make sure noone is within the safety zone.
WARNING: Sometimes branches
or grass get caught between the guard and cutting attachment,
Always stop the engine before c eaning,
4. Switch off the engine before moving to another area. Fit the transport guard before carrying or transporting the equipment any distance.
5. Never put the machine down with the engine running or while the cutting attachment is
rotating.
Basic working techniques
Always slow the engine to idle speed after each working operation. Long periods at
full throttle without any load on the engine can lead to serious engine damage.

WORKING TECHNIQUES
Grass clearing using a grass blade
QOO
Grass blades and grass cutters must not be used on woody stems.
A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse grass.
The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging movement, where the movement from right-to-left is the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to-right is the return
stroke. Let the left-hand side of the blade (between 8 and 12 o'clock) do the cutting.
If the blade is angled to the left when clear- ing grass, the grass will collect in a line,
which makes it easier to collect, e.g. by raking.
Try to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the re-
turn stroke and stand firmly again.
Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground.
Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these in- structions:
Always work at full throttle.
Avoid the previously cut material during
the return stroke.
Stop the engine, unclip the harness and place the machine on the ground before
you start to collect the cut material.
Grass trimming with a trimmer head Trimming
Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an angle. It is the end of the trimmer line
that does the work. Let the trimmer line work at its own pace. Never press the trimmer
line into the area to be cut.
The trimmer line can easily remove grass and weeds up against wails, fences, trees and borders, however it can also damage
sensitive bark on trees and bushes, and damage fence posts.
Reduce the risk of damaging p_ants by
shortening the trimmer line to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
When trimming you should use tess than full throttle so that the trimmer line lasts
longer and to reduce the wear on the
trimmer head.
Clearing
QOO
The clearing technique removes all un- wanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer
head just above the ground and tilt it. Let
the end of the trimmer line strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and
the like. CAUTION! This technique
increases the wear on the trimmer line.
The trimmer line wears quicker and must
be fed forward more often when working
against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc., than when coming into con-
tact with trees and wooden fences.
WORKING TECHNIQUES
Cutting
QOO
The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn
mower. Keep the trimmer line parallel to
the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as
this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool.
Do not allow the trimmer head to con- stantly come into contact with the ground
during normal cutting. Constant contact of this type can cause damage and wear
to the trimmer head.
Sweeping
QOO
The fan effect of the rotating line can be used for quick and easy clearing up.
Hold the trimmer line paralleI to and above the area to be swept and move
the tool to and fro.
/
/
WARNING: Neither the operator
of the machine nor anyone else may attempt to remove the cut material
while the engine is running or the trimmer line is rotating, as this can
result in serious injury. Stop the engine and trimmer head before you
remove material that has wound around the drive shaft as otherwise
there is a risk of injury. The bevel gear can get hot during use and may remain so for a while afterwards. You
could get burned if you touch it.
WARNING: Watch out for thrown
objects. Always wear eye protection. Never lean over the cutting attach- ment guard. Stones, rubbish, etc.
can be thrown up into the eyes causing blindness or serious injury.
Keep unauthorized persons at a dis- tance. Children, animals, onlookers and helpers should be kept outside the safety zone of 15 m.
Stop the machine immediately if anyone approaches.
\
\
When cutting and sweeping you should use full throttle to obtain the best results.
MAINTENANCE
The owner is responsible for the perfor-
mance of all required maintenance as
defined in the operator's manual.
WARNING:
nance could result in serious engine
[_JL. Improper mainte-
damage or in serious injury.
Carburetor
Your Husqvarna product has been designed and manufactured to specifications that re-
duce harmful emissions. After the engh_e has used 8-10 tanks of fuet, the engh_e will be run-in. To ensure that it continues to run
at peak performance and to minimize harm- ful exhaust emissions after the run-in peri-
od, ask your servicing dealer to adjust your carburetor.
WARNING: The complete clutch,
clutch cover, and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise parts could come loose
and cause personal injury.
Function
The carburetor governs the engine's speed via the throttle control, Air and fuel
are mixed in the carburetor.
The T-screw regulates the throttle setting
at idle speed. If the T-screw is turned
clockwise this gives a higher idle speed;
turning it counterclockwise gives a lower
idle speed.
Basic setting
The basic carburetor settings are ad-
justed during testing at the factory. Fine adjustment should be carried out by a
skilled technician.
Fine adjustment of the idle speed-T
Adjust the idle speed using the idle adjust- ment screw-T if it is necessary to readjust. First, turn the idle adjustment screw-T
ctockwise until the cutting attachment starts to rotate. Then, turn the screw counter-
clockwise until the cutting attachment stops. The idle speed is correctly adjusted when
the engine will run smoothly in every posi- tion. The idle speed should also be well
below the speed at which the cutting attach- ment starts to rotate.
Id,eSpeed
_WARNING: Iftbeidle speedcan-
O not be adjusted so that the cutting
attachment stops, contact your ser- vicing dealer. Do not use the ma-
chine until it has been correctly ad- justed or repaired,
Unit/Maintenance Safety
Disconnect the spark plug before perform- ing maintenance, except carburetor adjust-
ments.
Muffler
CAUTION! Muffler is fitted with a catalytic converter designed to reduce harmful ex-
haust gases.
WARNING: The cutting attach-
ment may be spinning during carbu- retor adjustments. Wear your protec-
tive equipment and observe all safe- ty instructions. Be sure the cutting attachment stops turning when the
engine idles, When the unit is turned off, make sure the cutting attach- ments has stopped before the unit is
set down.
CAUTION! if the cutting attachment rotates
when the engine is idling the idle adjustment screw T should be turned counterclockwise
until the cutting attachment stops.
Rec. idle speed:
See "Technical data" section.
Recommended max. speed:
See "Technical data" section.
\
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct the exhaust gases away
from the operator. The exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may cause fire if directed against dry and com-
bustible materiak Mufflers are equipped with a special spark
arrestor mesh. The mesh should be checked and, if necessary, cleaned by a
servicing dealer. If the mesh is damaged, it should be replaced.
2O
MAINTENANCE
If the mesh is frequently blocked, this can
be a sign that the performance of the cata- lytic converter is impaired. Contact your servicing dealer to inspect the muffler. A
blocked mesh wilt cause the machh_e to overheat and result in damage to the cylin-
der and piston.
Muffler bolts
I_ Spark arrestor mesh
CAUTION! Never use a machine that has a faulty or loose muffler. Ensure the muffler
bolts are tight.
catalytic converters get very hot during use and remain so for some time after stopping. This also ap-
plies at idle speed, Contact can re-
I_ib ARNING: Mufflers fitted with
sult in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of fire!
_lb WARNING: The inside of the
muffler contain chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with
these elements in the event of a damaged muffler.
_lb WARNING: Bear in mind that:
Engine exhaust fumes contain car- bon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For
this reason you should not start or run the machine indoors, or any-
where that is poorly ventilated. The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks
which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near com-
bustible material!
Spark plug
The spark plug condition is h_fluenced by:
Incorrect carburetor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or in- correct type of oil).
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark
plug electrodes, which may result in operat- ing problems and starting difficulties.
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking
any further action.
If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check
that the electrode gap is 0.024 inch (0.6
mm). The spark plug should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if
necessary. 0.024 inch (0.6 mm)
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type! Use of the wrong spark ptug can damage the piston/cylinder.
Air filter
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to
remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:
Carburetor malfunctions
Starting problems
Loss of engine power
Unnecessary wear to engine parts
Excessive fuel consumption
I
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if conditions are exceptionafly
dusty.
Cleaning the air filter
Remove the air filter cover and take out the
filter. Wash it clean in warm, soapy water.
Rinse thoroughly. Ensure that the filter is dry
before refitting it. An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be cleaned completely. The
filter must therefore be replaced with a new
one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must always be replaced.
21
MAINTENANCE
Bevel gear
The bevel gear is filled with the right quan- tity of grease at the factory. However, be-
fore using the machine you should check that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters full with grease. Use HUSQVARNA special
grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not nor- mally need to be changed except if repairs
are carried out.
Sharpening grass cutters and grass blades
WARNING: Always stop the en-
gine before doing any work on the cutting attachment. This continues
to rotate even after the throttle has
been released. Ensure that the cut-
ting attachment has stopped com-
pletely and disconnect the HT lead
from the spark plug before you start to work on it.
See the cutting attachment packaging for
correct sharpening instructions.
Sharpen blades and cutters using a
single-cut flat file.
Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the
batance of the blade.
WARNING: Always discard a
blade that is bent, twisted, cracked, broken or damaged in any other
way. Never attempt to straighten a twisted blade so that it can be re-
used. Only use original blades of the specified type.
