ODUCTION
Dear Customer
,
Cong
ratulations on your choice to buy a Husqvarna product! Husqvarna is based on a tradition that dates back to 1689, when the
Swedish King Karl XI ordered the construction of a factory on the banks of the Husqvarna River, for production of muskets. The
location was logical, since water power was harnessed from the Huskvarna River to create the water-powered plant. During the
more than 300 years of beeing, the Husqvarna factory has produced a lot of different products, from wood stoves to modern kitchen
appliances, sewing machines, bicycles, motorcycles etc. In 1956, the first motor driven lawn mowers appeared, followed by chain
saws in 1959, and it is within this area Husqvarna is working today.
Today Husqvarna is one of the leading manufacturers in the world of forest and garden products, with quality as our highest priority.
The business concept is to develop, manufacture and market motor driven products for forestry and gardening as well as for
building and construction industry. Husqvarna
′
s aim is also to be in the front edge according to ergonomics, usability, security and
environmental protection. That is the reason why we have developed many different features to provide our products within these
areas.
We are convinced that you will appreciate with great satisfaction the quality and performance of our product for a very long time to
come. The purchase of one of our products gives you access to professional help with repairs and service whenever this may be
necessary. If the retailer who sells your machine is not one of our authorised dealers, ask for the address of your nearest service
workshop.
It is our wish that you will be satisfied with your product and that it will be your companion for a long time. Think of this operator
′
s
manual as a valuable document. By following its
′
content (using, service, maintenance etc) the life span and the second-hand value
of the machine can be extended. If you will sell this machine, make sure that the buyer will get the operator
′
s manual.
Thank you for using a Husqvarna product.
