INTR ODUCTION
Dear customer!
Cong ratulations on your choice to buy a Husqvarna
product! Husqvarna is based on a tradition that dates
back to 1689, when the Swedish King Karl XI ordered the
construction of a factory on the banks of the Huskvarna
River, for production of muskets. The location was logical,
since water power was harnessed from the Huskvarna
River to create the water-powered plant. During over 300
years of continuous operation, the Husqvarna factory has
produced a lot of different products, from wood stoves to
modern kitchen appliances, sewing machines, bicycles,
motorcycles etc. In 1956, the first motor driven lawn
mowers appeared, followed by chain saws in 1959, and it
is within this area Husqvarna is working today.
Today Husqvarna is one of the leading manufacturers in
the world of forest and garden products, with quality as
our highest priority. We develop, manufacture and market
high quality motor driven products for forestry and
gardening as well as for building and construction
industry.
Your purchase gives you access to professional help with
repairs and service whenever this may be necessary. If
the retailer who sells your machine is not one of our
authorized dealers, ask for the address of your nearest
servicing dealer.
It is our wish that you will be satisfied with your product
and that it will be your companion for a long time. Think of
this operator
following its
life span and the second-hand value of the machine can
be extended. If you ever lend or sell this machine, make
sure that the borrower or buyer gets the operator
manual, so they will also know how to properly maintain
and use it.
Thank you for using a Husqvarna product.
Husqvarna AB has a policy of continuous product
development and therefore reserves the right to modify
the design and appearance of products without prior
notice.

Bef ore using a new chain saw
• Please read this manual carefully.
• (1) - (113) refer to figures on p. 2-6.
• Check that the cutting equipment is correctly fitted
and adjusted. See instructions under the heading
Assembly.
• Refuel and start the chain saw. See the instructions
under the headings Fuel Handling and Starting and
Stopping.
• Do not use the chain saw until sufficient chain oil has
reached the chain. See instructions under the
heading Cutting equipment.
• Long-term exposure to noise can result in permanent
hearing impairment. So always use approved hearing
protection.
WARNING! Under no circumstances may
the design of the machine be modified
!
without the permission of the
manufacturer. Always use genuine
accessories. Non-authorized
modifications and/or accessories can
result in serious personal injury or the
death of the operator or others. Your
warranty may not cover damage or
liability caused by the use of nonauthorized accessories or replacement
parts.
WARNING! A chain saw is a dangerous
tool if used carelessly or incorrectly and
!
can cause serious, even fatal injuries. It
is very important that you read and
understand the contents of this
operator’s manual.
WARNING! The inside of the muffler
contain chemicals that may be
!
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
WARNING! Long term inhalation of the
engine’s exhaust fumes, chain oil mist
!
and dust from sawdust can represent a
health risk.
WARNING! This machine produces an
electromagnetic field during operation.
!
This field may under some
circumstances interfere with active or
passive medical implants. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injury, we
recommend persons with medical
implants to consult their physician and
the medical implant manufacturer before
operating this machine.
WARNING! Never allow children to use or
be in the vicinity of the machine. As the
machine is equipped with a springloaded stop switch and can be started by
low speed and force on the starter
handle, even small children under some
circumstances can produce the force
necessary to start the machine. This can
mean a risk of serious personal injury.
Therefore remove the spark plug cap
when the machine is not under close
supervision.
Important
IMPORTANT!
This chain saw for forest service is designed for forest
work such as felling, delimbing and cutting.
You should only use the saw with the bar and chain
combinations we recommend in the chapter Technical
data.
Never use the machine if you are fatigued, while under
the influence of alcohol or drugs, medication or anything
that could affect your vision, alertness, coordination or
judgement.
Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions
under the heading ”Personal protective equipment”.
Do not modify this product or use it if it appears to have
been modified by others.
Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks,
maintenance and service instructions described in this
manual. Some maintenance and service measures
must be carried out by trained and qualified specialists.
See instructions under the heading Maintenance.
Never use any accessories other than those
recommended in this manual. See instructions under
the headings Cutting equipment and Technical data.
NB! Always wear protective glasses or a face visor to
reduce the risk of injury from thrown objects. A chain
saw is capable of throwing objects, such as wood chips,
small pieces of wood, etc, at great force. This can result
in serious injury, especially to the eyes.
WARNING! Running an engine in a
confined or badly ventilated area can
result in death due to asphyxiation or
carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING! Faulty cutting equipment or
the wrong combination of bar and saw
chain increases the risk of kickback!
Only use the bar/saw chain combinations
we recommend, and follow the filing
instructions. See instructions under the
heading Technical data.
