INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing a McCulloch product. You are thereby part of a story that started long ago, when the McCulloch
Corporation started its manufacturing of engines during World War II. In 1949, when McCulloch introduced its first light
one-man chainsaw, woodworking would never be the same again.
The line of innovative chainsaws would continue over the decades, and business was expanded, first by airplane and
kart engines in the 1950s, then by mini chainsaws in the 1960s. Later, in the 1970s and 80s, trimmers and blower vacs
were added to the range.
Today, as a part of the Husqvarna group, McCulloch continues the tradition of powerful engines, technical innovations,
and strong designs that have been our hallmarks for more than half a century. Lowering fuel consumption, emissions
and noise levels are of top priority to us, as is improving safety and user-friendliness.
We certainly hope that you will be satisfied with your McCulloch product, as it is designed to be your companion for a
long time. By f ollowing this operators manual’ s advice on usage, service, and maintenance, its lif espan can be extended.
If you should need professional help with repair or service, please use the Service Locator at www.mcculloch.biz.
McCulloch has a policy of continuous product development and therefore reserves the right to modify the design and
appearance of products without prior notice.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Stop switch
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when
you move the stop switch to the stop setting. The stop
switch automatically returns to the start position. In order
to prevent unintentional starting, the spark plug cap must
be removed from the spark plug when assembling,
checking and/or performing maintenance.
Hand guard
The hand guard prevents hands from coming into contact
with the moving blades, for e xample, if the oper ator loses
grip on the front handle.
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or
deformation. Check that the vibration damping element is
undamaged and securely attached.
WARNING! Overexposure to vibration
can lead to circulatory damage or nerve
!
damage in people who have impaired
circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure
to vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes
in skin colour or condition. These
symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists. The risk
increases at low temperatures.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user . A muffler
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with
a spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your
machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.
Check that the hand guard is fitted correctly.
Check that the hand guard is undamaged.
Vibration damping system
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping
system that is designed to minimize vibration and make
operation easier.
The machine′s vibration damping system reduces the
transfer of vibration between the engine unit/cutting
equipment and the machine′s handle unit.
The engine body, including the blades, is suspended on
the handlebar using four rubber bushings.
8 – English
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the
instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your
machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to
the machine.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark
arrestor mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked
mesh will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to
serious damage.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during 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.
WARNING! Bear in mind that: The
exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
!
and may contain sparks which can start
a fire. Never start the machine indoors or
near combustible material!
Gear
The gear housing gets hot when the machine has been in
use. To avoid burning yourself do not touch the gear
housing.
Blade and blade guard
The outer part of the blades (1) are shaped as blade
guards. The blade guard is intended to protect against
any part of the body coming into contact with the blades.
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or distorted.
Replace the cutting unit if it is bent or damaged.

FUEL HANDLING
Fuel safety
Never start the machine:
1 If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and
allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
2 If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes,
change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that
has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for
leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
Transport and storage
• Allow the hedge trimmer to cool down after use before
putting it away for storage.
• Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there
is no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact
with sparks or naked flames, for example, from
electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/
switches or boilers.
• When storing and transporting fuel always use
approved containers intended for this purpose.
• When storing the machine for long periods the fuel
tank must be emptied. Contact your local petrol
station to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.
• Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete
service is carried out before long-term storage.
• The transport guard must always be fitted to the
cutting attachment when the machine is being
transported or in storage.
• Secure the machine during transport.
WARNING! Take care when handling fuel.
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion
!
and inhaling fumes.
Fuel
CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke
engine and must always been run using a mixture of
petrol and two-stroke oil. It is important to accurately
measure the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that the
correct mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts
of fuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the
ratio of the mixture.
WARNING! Fuel and fuel fumes are
highly inflammable and can cause
!
serious injury when inhaled or allowed to
come in contact with the skin. For this
reason observe caution when handling
fuel and make sure there is adequate
ventilation.
Petrol
CAUTION! Always use a quality petrol/oil mixture at least
90 octane (RON). If your machine is equipped with a
catalytic converter (see chapter on T echnical data) alw ays
use a good quality unleaded petrol/oil mixture. Leaded
petrol will destroy the catalytic converter.
Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if
it is available.
• The lowest octane recommended is 90 (RON). If you
run the engine on a lower octane grade than 90 socalled knocking can occur. This gives rise to a high
engine temperature, which can result in serious
engine damage.
• When working at continuous high revs a higher octane
rating is recommended.
Two-stroke oil
• For best results and performance use Universal,
Universal powered by McCULLOCH two-stroke
engine oil, which is specially formulated for our aircooled two-stroke engines.
• Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled
engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated
TCW).
• Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
• A poor oil quality and/or too high oil/fuel ratio may
jeopardise function and decrease the life time of
catalytic converters.
• Mixing ratio
1:50 (2%) with Universal, Universal powered by
McCULLOCH two-stroke oil.
1:33 (3%) with oils class JASO FB or ISO EGB
formulated for air-cooled, two-stroke engines.

FUEL HANDLING
Mixing
• Always mix the petrol and oil in a clean container
intended for fuel.
• Always start by filling half the amount of the petrol to
be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix
(shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of
petrol.
• Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling
the machine’s fuel tank.
• Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a
time.
• If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank
should be emptied and cleaned.
WARNING! The catalytic converter
muffler gets very hot during and after
!
use. This also applies during idling. Be
aware of the fire hazard, especially when
working near flammable substances and/
or vapours.
Fueling
WARNING! Taking the following
precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
!
Do not smoke or place hot objects near

MAINTENANCE
Carburettor
Adjustment of the idle speed
Before any adjustments are made, make sure that the air
filter is clean and the air filter cover is fitted. Make sure the
start throttle position is disengaged.
Adjust the idle speed using the idle adjustment screw T, if
it is necessary to readjust. First turn the T screw clockwise
until the cutting attachment starts to move. Then turn the
screw anticlockwise until the cutting attachment stops.
The idle speed is correctly adjusted when the engine runs
smoothly in every position. The idle speed should also be
well below the speed at which the cutting attachment
starts to move.
Rec. idle speed: See the Technical data section.
is incorrectly adjusted or that too much oil has been mixed
with the petrol.
On mufflers fitted with a catalytic converter, the mesh
must be checked, and if necessary cleaned, monthly. If
the mesh is damaged it must be replaced. If the mesh
is frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the
performance of the catalytic converter is impaired.
Contact your dealer to inspect the muffler. A blocked
mesh will cause the machine to overheat and result in
damage to the cylinder and piston.
CAUTION! Ne v er use a machine with a def ective m uffler .
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during 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!
Cooling system
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be
adjusted so that the cutting attachment
!
stops, contact your dealer/service
workshop. Do not use the machine until
it has been correctly adjusted or
repaired.
Muffler
CAUTION! Some mufflers are fitted with a catalytic
converter. See chapter on Technical data to see whether
your machine is fitted with a catalytic converter.
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 combustible
material.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, the mesh
must be cleaned. This is best done with a wire brush.
On mufflers without a catalytic converter, the mesh should
be cleaned or replaced if necessary once a week. If the
mesh is damaged it must be replaced. If the mesh is
frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the carburettor
To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.
The cooling system consists of:
1 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
2 Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
3 Air intake through the crankcase (inside the tank).
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.
Spark plug
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
• Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
• An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type
of oil).
• A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug
electrodes, which may result in operating problems and
starting difficulties.
16 – English
MAINTENANCE
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 0,5 mm. The
spark plug should be replaced after about a month in
operation or earlier if necessary.
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug
type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/
cylinder. Check that the spark plug is fitted with a
suppressor.
Air filter
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust
and dirt in order to avoid:
• Carburettor malfunctions
• Starting problems
• Loss of engine power
• Unnecessary wear to engine parts.
• Excessive fuel consumption.
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if
conditions are exceptionally dusty.
Oiling the air filter
Always use filter oil, art. no. 531 00 92-48. The filter oil
contains a solvent to make it spread evenly through the
filter. You should therefore avoid skin contact.
Put the filter in a plastic bag and pour the filter oil over it.
Knead the plastic bag to distribute the oil. Squeeze the
excess oil out of the filter inside the plastic bag and pour
off the excess before fitting the filter to the machine. Nev er
use common engine oil. This would drain through the filter
quite quickly and collect in the bottom.
Gear
There is a plug for filling lubricant on the gear housing.
Use the grease tube to fill with grease and repeat every
25 hours. Use Husqvarna’s special grease.
Cleaning the air filter
Remove the air filter cover and tak e out the filter. Wash it
clean in warm, soapy water. Allow the filter to dry and then
oil it in according to the instructions.
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 dama ged air filter
must always be replaced.
CAUTION! The gear housing must not be filled
completely with grease. The grease expands as the
machine heats up during operation. If the gear housing
was completely filled with grease it could damage the
seals and lead to leakage of grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not normally need to
be changed except if repairs are carried out.
Cutting unit
Check that the cutting units' screws are fitted correctly.
Tighten them with a tightening torque of 7-10 Nm.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and lubrication
Clean any resin and plant residue from the blades using
cleaning agent 531 00 75-13 (UL22) before and after
using the machine.
Check that the blade edges are not damaged or
deformed. File away any burrs.
Check that the blades move freely. Remove the
lubrication plug in the gear housing and stick in the
combination spanner and turn back and forth.
Lubricate the blade bars with special grease, part no. 531
00 75-12 (UL 21) before long periods of storage.

INLEDNING
Bäste kund!
Tack för att du använder en McCulloch-produkt! Du är därmed en del av en historia som tog sin början för länge sedan,
när McCulloch Corporation startade sin tillverkning av motorer under andra världskriget. Från och med 1949, när
McCulloch lanserade den första lätta enmansmotorsågen, skulle skogsarbetet aldrig bli sig likt igen.
Utvecklingen av innovativa motorsågar skulle fortsätta genom årtiondena, och verksamheten utökades, först med
motorer för flygplan och gokarts på 1950-talet, och sedan med minimotorsågar på 1960-talet. På 1970- och 80-talet
utökades sortimentet med trimmers och lövblåsare.
Idag bygger McCulloch som en del av Husqvarna-koncernen vidare på den tradition av kraftfulla motorer, tekniska
innovationer och utmärkande design som varit vårt kännetecken i mer än ett halvsekel. Minskad bränsleförbrukning,
minskade utsläpp och lägre ljudnivåer är av högsta prioritet för oss, på samma sätt som att förbättra säkerheten och
användarvänligheten.
Vi hoppas att du kommer att vara nöjd med din McCulloch-produkt, som är utformad för att vara din följeslagare under
en lång tid framöver. Genom att följa råden i bruksanvisningen gällande användning, service och underhåll kan
produktens livslängd utökas. Om du behöv er professionell hjälp med reparation eller service, kan du an vända dig av vår
Service Locator på www.mcculloch.biz.
McCulloch arbetar ständigt med att vidareutveckla sina produkter och förbehåller sig därför rätten till ändringar
beträffande bl.a. form och utseende utan föregående meddelande.
Den här bruksanvisningen kan också laddas ned från www.mcculloch.biz.

ALLMÄNNA SÄKERHETSINSTRUKTIONER
Stoppkontakt
Stoppkontakten ska användas för att stänga av motorn.
Starta motorn och kontrollera att motorn stängs av när
stoppkontakten förs till stoppläget. Stoppkontakten
återgår automatiskt till startläge. För att undvika ofrivillig
start, måste därför alltid tändhatten avlägsnas från
tändstiftet vid montering, kontroll och/eller underhåll.
Handskydd
Handskyddet skall skydda handen från att komma i
kontakt med de arbetande knivarna, t ex om användaren
förlorar greppet om främre handtaget.
Kontrollera regelbundet avvibreringselementen efter
materialsprickor och deformationer. Kontrollera att
avvibreringselementen är hela och fast förankrade.
VARNING! Överexponering a v vibrationer
kan leda till blodkärls- eller nervskador
!
hos personer som har
blodcirkulationsstörningar. Uppsök
läkare om ni upplever kroppsliga
symptom som kan relateras till
överexponering av vibrationer. Exempel
på sådana symptom är domningar,
avsaknad av känsel, ”kittlingar”,
”stickningar”, smärta, avsaknad eller
reducering av normal styrka,
förändringar i hudens färg eller dess yta.
Dessa symptom uppträder vanligtvis i
fingrar, händer eller handleder. Riskerna
kan öka vid låga temperaturer.
Ljuddämpare
Ljuddämparen är konstruerad för att ge så låg ljudnivå
som möjligt samt för att leda bort motorns avgaser från
användaren. Ljuddämpare utrustad med katalysator är
även konstruerad för att reducera skadliga ämnen i
avgaserna.
Kontrollera att handskyddet sitter fast.
Kontrollera att handskyddet är helt.
Avvibreringssystem
Din maskin är utrustad med ett avvibreringssystem, vilket
är konstruerat att ge en så vibrationsfri och behaglig
användning som möjligt.
Maskinens avvibreringssystem reducerar överföringen av
vibrationer mellan motorenhet/skärutrustning och
maskinens handtagsenhet.
Motorkroppen inklusive knivar, hänger i handtagen via
fyra gummibussningar.
28 – Svenska
I länder med varmt och torrt klimat är risken för bränder
påtaglig. Vi har därför utrustat vissa ljuddämpare med ett
sk. gnistfångarnät. Kontrollera om din maskins
ljuddämpare har ett sådant nät.
För ljuddämpare är det mycket viktigt att instruktionerna
för kontroll, underhåll och service följs.
Använd aldrig en maskin som har en defekt ljuddämpare.
Kontrollera regelbundet att ljuddämparen sitter fast på
motorn.
ALLMÄNNA SÄKERHETSINSTRUKTIONER
Är din maskins ljuddämpare utrustad med ett
gnistfångarnät, skall detta rengöras regelbundet. Ett
igensatt nät leder till varmkörning av motorn med allvarlig
motorskada som följd.
VARNING! Katalysatorljuddämparen blir
mycket het såväl vid användning som
!
efter stopp. Detta gäller även vid
tomgångskörning. Beröring kan orsaka
brännskador på huden. Var uppmärksam
på brandfaran!
VARNING! Ljuddämparen innehåller
kemikalier som kan vara
!
cancerframkallande. Undvik kontakt med
dessa kemikalier ifall ljuddämparen
skulle gå sönder.
VARNING! Tänk på att: Motorns avgaser
är heta och kan innehålla gnistor vilka
!
kan orsaka brand. Starta därför aldrig
maskinen inomhus eller nära eldfängt
material!
Växel
Efter arbete med maskinen blir växeln varm. Ta ej på
växeln för att undvika brännskador.
Kniv och knivskydd
Yttersta delen av knivarna (1) är formade som ett
knivskydd. Knivskyddet är avsett att skydda mot att någon
kroppsdel kommer i kontakt med knivarna.
Kontrollera knivskyddet så att det är oskadat och utan
deformeringar. Byt ut klippagg regatet om det är böjt eller
skadat.

BRÄNSLEHANTERING
Bränslesäkerhet
Starta aldrig maskinen:
1 Om du spillt bränsle på den. Torka av allt spill och låt
bensinresterna avdunsta.
2 Om du spillt bränsle på dig själv eller dina kläder, byt
kläder. Tvätta de kroppsdelar som varit i kontakt med
bränsle. Använd tvål och vatten.
3 Om maskinen läcker bränsle. Kontrollera regelbundet
efter läckage från tanklock och bränsleledningar.
Transport och förvaring
• Låt häcksaxen svalna av efter arbetet innan ni stoppar
undan den för förvaring.
• Förvara och transportera maskinen och bränslet så
att eventuellt läckage och ångor inte riskerar att
komma i kontakt med gnistor eller öppen låga,
exempelvis från elmaskiner, elmotorer, elkontakter/
strömbrytare eller värmepannor.
• Vid förvaring och transport av bränsle ska för
ändamålet speciellt avsedda och godkända behållare
användas.
• Vid längre tids förvaring av maskin ska bränsletanken
tömmas. Hör med närmaste bensinstation var du kan
göra dig av med bränsleöverskott.
• Se till att maskinen är väl rengjord och att fullständig
service är utförd innan långtidsförvaring.
• Skärutrustningens transportskydd ska alltid vara
monterat under transport eller förvaring av maskinen.
• Säkra maskinen under transport.
VARNING! Var försiktig vid hantering av
bränsle. Tänk på brand-, explosions- och
!
inandningsrisker.
Drivmedel
OBS! Maskinen är försedd med en tvåtaktsmotor och
måste alltid köras på en blandning av bensin och
tvåtaktsolja. För att säkerställa rätt b landningsförhållande
är det viktigt att noggrant mäta den oljemängd som skall
blandas. Vid tillblandning av små bränslemängder
inverkar även små felaktigheter i oljemängden kraftigt på
blandningsförhållandet.
VARNING! Bränsle och bränsleångor är
mycket brandfarliga och kan ge allvarliga
!
skador vid inandning och
hudexponering. Var därför försiktig vid
hantering av bränsle och sörj för god
luftventilation vid bränslehantering.
Bensin
OBS! Använd alltid oljeblandad kvalitetsbensin med
minst 90 oktan (RON). Om din maskin är utrustad med
katalysator (se kapitel Tekniska data) skall alltid blyfri
oljeblandad kvalitetsbensin användas. En blyad bensin
förstör katalysatorn.
Där miljöanpassad bensin, s.k. alkylatbensin finns
tillgänglig ska sådan användas.
• Rekommenderat lägsta oktantal är 90 (RON). Om
man kör motorn på bensin med ett lägre oktantal än
90 kan så kallad spikning uppträda. Detta leder till
ökad motortemperatur, som kan orsaka svåra
motorhaverier.
• Vid arbete med kontinuerligt höga varvtal
rekommenderas högre oktantal.
Tvåtaktsolja
• För bästa resultat och funktion använd Universal,
Universal powered by McCULLOCH tvåtaktsolja, som
