operation

11. Before moving the machine forwards, you should ensure that the cutting wheel is above the ground and located on either side of the stump. Move the machine forward by releasing the brake, pushing it forward, activating the brake again and repeating Steps 9 and 10.

12. Repeat Steps 9 through 11 until the upper portion

of the stump has been removed. DO NOT cut deeper than ground level at this stage.

13. Set the throttle to SLOW/(START) DISENGAGE and wait until the cutting wheel stops rotating.

14.Release the brake and pull the machine away from the stump.

15.It may be necessary to clear wood chips from the area around the stump.

16.If you want to grind below the ground level, it may become necessary to adjust the handle position to achieve a better hand and arm work position. Pull

the handle control lever and adjust the handle to the desired position.

17. Repeat Steps 6 through 10 until you reach the desired depth.

18. Shut off the machine when you are done.

Operating On Hills

Be very careful when operating the stump grinder on hills because the machine can slip or move unexpectedly.

NEVER use the machine on grades of 10° or steeper.

Transport

The Husqvarna stump grinder can be transported in a truck, trailer, van or a large SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle). The stump grinder is equipped with four lifting handles (two on each side) so that two people can lift the machine if necessary.

DO NOT attempt to lift the machine alone. Use safe lifting techniques and DO NOT exceed your physical limitations.

Secure the machine with tensioning belts, chains or other approved materials.

The lifting handles can also be used to secure the machine for transport.
