INTRODUCTION

Dear customer!

Congratulations 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′s manual as a valuable document. By following its′ content (using, service, maintenance etc) the 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′s manual, so they will also know how to properly maintain and use it.

240e, 235e specifications

The Husqvarna 235E and 240E are two popular models in the world of lightweight chain saws, designed to deliver excellent performance for both novice and experienced users. Ideal for homeowners and professionals alike, these models are perfect for tasks such as cutting firewood, pruning, and handling small trees.

One of the standout features of the Husqvarna 235E and 240E is their lightweight construction. Weighing in at around 10.3 pounds, these chainsaws are easy to maneuver, reducing fatigue during extended use. The ergonomic design enhances comfort, making it easier for users to maintain a firm grip, especially during challenging cutting tasks.

These models are equipped with the powerful X-Torq engine technology, which provides a significant increase in efficiency. The X-Torq engine reduces fuel consumption by up to 20%, allowing users to work longer without the need for frequent refueling. Additionally, the engine's design minimizes harmful emissions, making the 235E and 240E more environmentally friendly.

Another important characteristic is the chainsaw’s emissions control system. Husqvarna has integrated an efficient air filtration system in both models, ensuring that dirt and debris are kept away from the engine for extended periods. This results in less maintenance and longer operational life.

Ease of starting is also a highlight of these models. The Smart Start technology ensures that the chainsaw can be started with minimal effort, allowing users to get to work quickly. The combined choke and stop control further simplify the starting process, ensuring a smooth operation every time.

Safety features are not overlooked in the Husqvarna 235E and 240E. Each model comes with a chain brake that responds quickly to stop the chain in case of kickback, which is essential for preventing accidents during operation. The low-vibration design reduces strain on the hands and arms, fostering a safer and more comfortable user experience.

Overall, the Husqvarna 235E and 240E offer a combination of power, efficiency, and user-friendly features that set them apart in their category. With a focus on performance and safety, these chainsaws are an excellent choice for anyone looking to tackle cutting, trimming, and pruning tasks with ease and confidence. Whether you are a homeowner looking to manage your yard or a professional seeking reliable equipment, the 235E and 240E are worthy contenders.
