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 Husqvarna 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 the more than 300 years in existence, 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. The business concept is to develop, manufacture and market motor-driven products for forestry and gardening, as well as for the building and construction industry. Husqvarnas aim is also to be at the front edge for ergonomics, usability, security and environmental protection. That is the reason why we have developed many different features to add to our products within these areas. We are convinced that you will appreciate with great satisfaction the quality and performance of our product for a very long time to come. The purchase of one of our products 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 authorised dealers, ask for the address of your nearest service workshop. 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 operators manual as a valuable document. By following its content (usage, service, maintenance, etc), the life span and the second-hand value of the machine can be extended.

Running an engine in a ! confined or badly ventilated area can result in death due to asphyxiation or carbon monoxide poisoning. 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. 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! Do not smoke and do not place any hot objects in the vicinity of fuel. Fuel NOTICE! The machine is equipped with a four-stroke engine. Make sure that there is always sufficient oil in the oil tank. Petrol · Use good quality unleaded or leaded petrol. · 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. · Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if it is available. Engine oil NOTICE! Check the oil level before starting the lawn mower. A too low oil level can cause serious damage to the engine. See instructions in the section "Maintenance". · The engine oil should be changed the first time after 5 hours running time. Refer to Technical Data for recommendations on which oil type to use. Never use oil intended for two-stroke engines. WARNING! Always stop the engine and ! let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling. Use a petrol can at all times to avoid spillage. When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently. Clean the area around the fuel cap. Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling. Negligence may lead to the start of a fire. Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point before starting it. Never start the machine: · If you have spilled fuel or engine oil on the machine.

Keep people and animals well away. · Never use the machine in bad weather, for instance in fog, in rain, damp or in wet locations,strong winds, intense cold, risk of lightning, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces. · Observe your surroundings to ensure that nothing can affect your control of the machine. · Beware of roots, stones, twigs, pits, ditches etc. Tall grass can hide obstacles. · Mowing slopes can be dangerous. Do not use the lawn mower on very steep slopes. The lawn mower should not be used on inclines greater than 15 degrees. · On sloping ground you should work along the slope. It is much easier to work along a slope than it is to work up and down it. · Be careful when you are approaching hidden corners and objects that could block your view. Work safety · A lawn mower is only designed to mow lawns. All other use is forbidden. · Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions under the "Personal protective equipment" heading. · Do not start a lawn mower unless the cutter and all covers are fitted correctly. Otherwise the cutter could come loose and cause personal injuries. · Make sure the cutter does not hit foreign objects such as stones, roots or the like. This can make the cutter dull and bend the engine shaft. A bent axle gives imbalance and heavy vibration, which results in a great risk of the cutter becoming loose. · The brake handle must never be permanently anchored in handle when the machine is running. · Place the lawn mower on firm, flat surface and start it. Make sure that the cutter cannot come into contact with the ground or other objects. · Always place yourself behind the machine. Allow all the wheels to remain on the ground and keep both hands on the handle when mowing.

If you must lift the lawn mower, first switch off the engine and disconnect the ignition lead from the spark plug. · Do not mow the lawn while walking backwards. · The engine should be switched off when moving over ground that is not to be mowed. For example, gravel paths, stone, shingle, asphalt, etc. · Never run with the machine when it is running. You should always walk with the lawn mower. · Shut down the engine before changing the cutting height. Never make adjustments with the engine running. · Never leave the machine unsupervised with the motor running. Turn off the motor. Ensure the cutting attachment has stopped rotating. · If any foreign object is hit or if vibrations occur stop the machine immediately. Disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug. Check that the machine is not damaged. Repair any damage. Basic working techniques · Always cut with a sharp blade for optimal results. A dull blade gives an uneven cut and the grass becomes yellow on the surface of the cut. · Never mow more than 1/3 of the length of the grass. This especially applies during dry periods. Mow first with the cutting height set high. Then check the result and lower to an appropriate height. If the grass is really long, drive slowly and mow twice if necessary. · Cut in different directions each time in order to avoid stripes in the lawn. Transport and storage · Secure the equipment during transportation in order to avoid transport damage and accidents. · Store the equipment in a lockable area so that it is out of reach of children and unauthorized persons. · Store the machine and its equipment in a dry and frost proof place. · For transport and storage of fuel, see the section "Fuel handling".
