INTRODUCTION

Introduction

Congratulations

Thank you for purchasing a Husqvarna Walk-Behind Mower. This machine is built for the greatest efficiency and rapid mowing primarily of large areas. Controls in one place and a transmission regulated by steering controls contribute to the machine’s performance.

This manual is a valuable document. Following the instructions (use, service, maintenance, etc.) can considerably increase the lifespan of your machine and even increase its resale value.

If you sell your machine, be sure to give this Operator’s Manual to the new owner.

The final chapter of this Operator’s Manual comprises a Service Journal. Ensure that service and repair work is documented. A well kept service journal reduces service costs for the season-based maintenance and affects the machine’s resale value. Take the Operator’s Manual along when the machine is left to the workshop for service.
