SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Personal protective equipment FIRST AID KIT Always have a first aid kit nearby. ! ! WARNING! Whenever you use a clearing saw, brushcutter or trimmer you must wear personal protective equipment that is approved by the authorities. Personal protective equipment does not eliminate the risk of accidents, but it can reduce the effects of an injury in the event of an accident. Ask your dealer for help when choosing protective equipment.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ! WARNING! Never use a cutting attachment without an approved guard. See the chapter on Technical data. If an incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can cause serious personal injury. Vibration damping system For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine. See instructions under the heading Checking, maintaining and servicing the machine’s safety equipment.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Checking, maintaining and servicing the machine′s safety equipment IMPORTANT! All servicing and repair work on the machine requires special training. This is especially true of the machine′s safety equipment. If your machine fails any of the checks described below you must contact your service agent. When you buy any of our products we guarantee the availability of professional repairs and service.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Muffler • 3 Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced. Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler. Locking nut • • Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. • When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite direction to the direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove it, undo the nut in the same direction as the cutting attachment rotates.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Cutting equipment • The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the same diameter. IMPORTANT! • This section describes how to choose and maintain your cutting equipment in order to: Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer guard is intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length. • To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for a couple of days.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Starting ! • 4 Avoid all skin contact with fuel. Fuel is a skin irritant and may even cause skin changes. WARNING! When the engine is started with the choke in either the choke or start throttle positions the cutting attachment will start to rotate immediately. The complete clutch cover and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can come loose and cause personal injury. • Never start the machine indoors. Exhaust fumes can be dangerous if inhaled.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General working instructions Basic working techniques • IMPORTANT! This section describes the basic safety precautions for working with clearing saws and trimmers. If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop. Always slow the engine to idle speed after each working operation. Long periods at full throttle without any load on the engine can lead to serious engine damage.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Grass trimming using a trimmer head and plastic blades Cutting Trimming • • The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool. • Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting.

ASSEMBLY Fitting the J-handle • Clip the loop handle onto the shaft. Note that the loop handle must be fitted between the arrows on the shaft. Fitting a trimmer guard and Superauto II trimmer head G F I K J • Slide the spacer into the slot in the loop handle. • Fit the nut, knob and screw. Do not overtighten. • Attach the J-handle to the loop handle using the three screws, as shown. B C I K A • Now adjust the trimmer to give a comfortable working position. Tighten the bolt/knob.
ASSEMBLY Fitting the blade guard/combination guard, grass blade and grass cutter Fitting other guards and cutting attachments • • Hook the blade guard/combination guard (A) onto the fitting on the shaft and secure with the bolt. CAUTION! Use the recommended blade guard. See the Technical data section. Fit the correct trimmer guard (A) for use with the trimmer head. Hook the trimmer guard/combination guard onto the fitting on the shaft and secure with the bolt (L).
FUEL HANDLING Fuel CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine and must always been run using a mixture of gasoline and two-stroke engine oil. It is important to accurately measure the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that the correct mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio of the mixture. ! • Always start by filling half the amount of the gasoline to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil.
STARTING AND STOPPING Check before starting Starting and stopping For safety reasons follow these recommendations! • • Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
STARTING AND STOPPING Air purge: Press the air purge diaphragm repeatedly until fuel begins to fill the diaphragm. The diaphragm need not be completely filled. Stopping Stop the engine by switching off the ignition. ! WARNING! When the engine is started with the choke in either the choke or start throttle positions the cutting attachment will start to rotate immediately. Starting Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!).
MAINTENANCE Carburettor Your Husqvarna product has been designed and manufactured to specifications that reduce harmful emissions. After the engine has used 8-10 tanks of fuel the engine will be run-in. To ensure that it continues to run at peak performance and to minimise harmful exhaust emissions after the running-in period, ask your dealer/service workshop (who will have a rev counter at their disposal) to adjust your carburettor.
MAINTENANCE will run smoothly in every position. The idle speed should also be well below the speed at which the cutting attachment starts to rotate. If the high speed jet H is set too lean it will result in less power, less performance, poor acceleration and/or damage to the engine. If both the L and H jets are set too rich it will results in acceleration problems or too low a working speed.
MAINTENANCE Cooling system Air filter To keep the working temperature as low as possible the machine is equipped with a cooling system. The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt in order to avoid: The cooling system consists of: • Carburettor malfunctions • Starting problems 3 • Loss of engine power 2 • Unnecessary wear to engine parts • Excessive fuel consumption. 4 1 1 Air intake on the starter. 2 Fins on the flywheel. 3 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
MAINTENANCE Bevel gear Weekly maintenance • Check the starter and starter cord. • Clean the carburettor area. The bevel gear is filled with the right quantity of grease at the factory. However, before using the machine you should check that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters full with grease. Use HUSQVARNA special grease. • Clean the outside of the spark plug. Remove it and check the electrode gap. Adjust the gap to 0.5 mm (.20”), or replace the spark plug.
