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 between work sessions.

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.

IMPORTANT

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.

WARNING

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

IMPORTANT

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.While operating the machine be always sure of a safe and secure operating position especially when using steps or a ladder.
