CONTROLS

Recoil Starter Grip

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not let recoil cord snap back by itself. This may damage the cord or the recoil starter assembly.

Pull the recoil starter grip slowly until you feel compression, then pull it briskly.

Normally this engine will not backfire. If you get backfires, contact your Husqvarna dealer for service.

Ignition Switch

The ignition key switch is located on the control panel at the lower right.

Drive Levers

The machine’s speed and direction are continuously variable using the two motion control levers.

By releasing both controls an equal amount the machine moves in a straight line forward.

In order, for example, to turn right while moving forward, squeeze the right control upward toward the handle (neutral position). The rotation of the right wheel is reduced and the machine turns to the right.

To stop forward travel, pull both drive levers up into the neutral position.

When both controls are in the neutral position, the machine stands still. The controls will be locked in neutral position when both neutral locks are engaged.
