influence of alcohol, when suffering from exhaustion or
lack of sleep, when suffering from drowsiness as a result
of having taken cold medicine or at any other time when
a possibility exists that your judgment might be impaired
or that you might not be able to operate the product
properly and in a safe manner.
2. When planning your work schedule, allow plenty of time
to rest. Limit the amount of time over which the product
is to be used continuously to somewhere around 30 ~
40 minutes per session, and take 10 ~ 20 minutes of rest

Stress Injury (RSI) could occur.
If you feel discomfort, redness and swelling of your

2. To avoid noise complaints, in general, operate product
between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to
5 p.m. on weekends.
Check and follow the local regulations as to sound
level and hours of operations for the product.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
1. The area within a perimeter of 15 m (50 ft) of the person
using the product should be considered a hazardous
area into which no one should enter. If necessary, yellow
warning rope, warning signs should be placed around
the perimeter of the area. When work is to be performed
simultaneously by two or more persons, care should
also be taken to constantly look around or otherwise
check for the presence and locations of other people
working so as to maintain a distance between each
person sufficient to ensure safety.
2. Check the condition of working area to avoid any
accident by hitting hidden obstacles such as stumps,
stones, cans, or broken glass.
Remove any obstacle before beginning work.
3. Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners leakage. Make
sure that the cutting attachment properly installed and
securely fastened.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Keep bystanders especially children, and animals at least
15 m (50 ft) away from the operating point. If you are
approached, immediately stop the engine.
2. The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch
mechanism, so the cutting attachment begins to move
as soon as the engine is started by putting the throttle
into the start position. When starting the engine, place
the product onto the ground in a flat clear area and hold
it firmly in place so as to ensure that neither the cutting
part nor the throttle come into contact with any obstacle
when the engine starts.
Never place the throttle into the high-speed position
when starting the engine.
Never start the engine at the cutting attachment side.
3. After starting the engine, check to make sure that the
cutting attachment stops moving when the throttle is
moved fully back to its original position. If it continues to
move even after the throttle has been moved fully back,
turn off the engine and take the unit to your authorized
Husqvarna servicing dealer for repair.
USING THE PRODUCT
Cut only materials recommended by the manufacturer.
And use only for tasks explained in the manual.
1. Grip the handles firmly with both hands using your whole
hand. Place your feet slightly apart (slightly further apart
than the width of your shoulders) so that your weight is
distributed evenly across both legs, and always be sure
to maintain a steady, even posture while working.
2. Maintain the speed of the engine at the level required to
perform cutting work, and never raise the speed of the
engine above the level necessary.
3. If the unit starts to shake or vibrate, turn off the engine
and check the whole unit. Do not use it until the trouble
has been properly corrected.
4. Keep all parts of your body away from moving cutting
attachment and hot surfaces.
5. Never touch the muffler, spark plug, or other metallic
parts of the engine while the engine is in operation or
immediately after shutting down the engine. Doing so
could result in serious burns or electrical shock.
6. Never work from a ladder, stool or any other raised
position that is not fully secured.
7. Check the cutting attachment. Never use blades that are
dull, cracked or damaged.
8. To reduce the fire hazard, clean dirt, leaves and surplus
lubricant, etc from the muffler and engine.
