Thank you for purchasing a Husqvarna Walk-Behind mower. This machine is built for superior efficiency to rapidly mow primarily large areas. A control panel easily accessible to the operator and a transmission regulated by steering controls both contribute to the machine’s performance.

This manual is a valuable document. Read the contents carefully before using or servicing the machine. Following the instructions (use, service, maintenance) is important for the safety of the operator and others. It can also considerably increase the life span of the machine and increase its resale value.
