Before using your new Power cutter

Read the Operator’s Manual carefully.

Check the assembly and adjustment of the cutting disc, see chapter ”Assembly”.

Start the engine and check the carburettor settings. See chapter ”Maintenance”, section ”Carburettor”. When adjusted correctly the cutting disc should not rotate when idling. Setting the idling speed is described in the Operator’s Manual. Adjust the speed according to these instructions. Do not use the power cutter if the idling speed is not correctly adjusted!

Let your Husqvarna dealer check the power cutter and carry out essential adjustments and repairs.

WARNING!

!Under no circumstances may the original design of a power cutter be modified without the written permission of the manufacturer. Unauthorised modifications can result in safety be jeopardised.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION! A too lean carburettor adjustment significantly increases the risk of an engine breakdown.

Insufficient care of the air filter will cause deposits on the spark plug resulting in abnormal wear to engine parts.
