Safety instructions for operation
Personal protective equipment
WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Personal protective equipment cannot fully prevent injury but it decreases the degree of injury if an accident does occur. Let your dealer help you select the right equipment.
• Use hearing protection if the noise level is higher than 85 dB.
• Use heavy-duty slip-resistant boots or shoes. Do not use open shoes or go with bare feet.
• Use heavy, long pants.
• Use protective gloves when necessary, for example when you attach, examine or clean the cutting equipment.

Safety devices on the product
WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Do not use a product with defective safety devices.
• Do a check of the safety devices regularly. If the safety devices are defective, speak to your

Husqvarna service agent.
To do a check of the cutting cover
The cutting cover decreases vibrations in the product and decreases the risk of injury from the blade.

• Examine the cutting cover to make sure that there are no damages such as cracks.

To do a check of the engine brake handle
The engine brake handle stops the engine. When the engine brake handle is released, the engine stops.

• Start the engine and then release the engine brake handle. If the engine does not stop in 3 seconds, let an approved Husqvarna service agent adjust the engine brake. (Fig. 15)

Muffler
The muffler keeps the noise levels to a minimum and sends the exhaust fumes away from the operator.
Do not use the product if the muffler is missing or defective. A defective muffler increases the noise level and the risk of fire.
WARNING: The muffler becomes very hot during and after use and when the engine operates at idle speed. Be careful near flammable materials and/or fumes to prevent fire.
Fuel safety
WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Do not start the product if there is fuel or engine oil on the product. Remove the unwanted fuel/oil and let the product dry.
• If you spill fuel on your clothing, change clothing immediately.
• Do not get fuel on your body, it can cause injury. If you get fuel on your body, use soap and water to remove the fuel.
• Do not start the product if the engine has a leak. Examine the engine for leaks regularly.
• Be careful with fuel. Fuel is flammable and the fumes are explosive and can cause injuries or death.
• Do not breathe in the fuel fumes, it can cause injury. Make sure that there is sufficient airflow.
• Do not smoke near the fuel or the engine.
• Do not put warm objects near the fuel or the engine.
• Do not add fuel when the engine is on.
• Make sure that the engine is cool before you refuel.
• Before you refuel, open the fuel tank cap slowly and release the pressure carefully.
• Do not add fuel to the engine in an indoor area. Not sufficient airflow can cause injury or death because of asphyxiation or carbon monoxide.
• Tighten the fuel tank cap fully. If the fuel tank cap is not tightened, there is a risk of fire.
• Move the product a minimum of 3 m / 10 ft from the position where you filled the tank before a start.
• Do not fill the fuel tank full. Heat causes the fuel to expand. Keep a space at the top of the fuel tank.

2. Register in the Husqvarna Connect app.
3. Do the instruction steps in the Husqvarna Connect app to connect and register the product.

Before you operate the product

1. Read the operator’s manual carefully and make sure that you understand the instructions.
2. Examine the cutting equipment to make sure that it is correctly attached and adjusted. See To examine the cutting equipment on page 13.
3. Fill the fuel tank. See To fill fuel on page 11.
4. Fill the oil tank and check the oil level. See

To do a check of the oil level on page 14.
To fill fuel
If available, use gasoline with a low emission grade/ alkylate fuel. If gasoline with a low emission grade/alkylates fuel is not available, use good quality unleaded gasoline or leaded gasoline with an octane number,s not less than 91.
CAUTION: Do not use gasoline with an octane number less than 91 RON. This can cause damage to the product.
CAUTION: Replace the fuel filter yearly or more frequently if it is necessary. A new fuel filter is available at your Husqvarna dealer.
CAUTION: Always stop the engine before you fill fuel.
CAUTION: Do not use pressurized starting fluids.

1. Open the fuel tank cap slowly to release the pressure.
2. Fill slowly with a fuel can. If you spill fuel, remove it with a cloth and let the remaining fuel dry off. (Fig. 32)
3. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap.
4. Tighten the fuel tank cap fully. If the fuel tank cap is not tightened, there is a risk of fire.
5. Move the product a minimum of 3 m / 10 ft from the position where you filled the tank before a start.

To set the cutting height

1. Move the cutting height lever rearward to increase the cutting height.
2. Move the cutting height lever forward to decrease the cutting height. (Fig. 33)

CAUTION: Do not set the cutting height too low. The blades can hit the ground if the surface of the lawn is not level.
To start the product

1. Make sure that the ignition cable is connected to the spark plug.
2. Stay behind the product.
3. Hold the engine brake handle against the handlebar. (Fig. 34)
4. Hold the starter rope handle with your right hand.
5.  Slowly pull out the starter rope until you feel some resistance.
6. Pull with force to start the engine.

WARNING: Do not twist the starter rope around your hand.
To use the drive on the wheels

• Push the drive bail in the direction of the handlebar. (Fig. 35)
• Release the drive bail to disengage the drive, for example when you go near an obstacle.
• Before you pull the product rearward, disengage the drive and push the product forward approximately 10 cm.

To stop the product

• To stop the drive only, release the drive bail.
• To stop the engine, release the engine brake handle.

To get a good result

• Always use a sharp blade. A blunt blade gives an irregular result and the cut surface of the grass becomes yellow. A sharp blade also uses less energy than a blunt blade.

• Do not cut more than ⅓ of the length of the grass.
  Cut first with the cutting height set high. Examine the result and lower the cutting height to an applicable level. If the grass is very long, drive slowly and cut 2 times if necessary.

• Cut in different directions each time to prevent stripes in the lawn.
