Examples of Husqvarna hydraulic tools which can be used
together with the PP518 without any modifications:
• Power cutters K2500 K3600

• Wall saw WS 325
Other popular tools are:

20, 30 or 40 l/min
(5, 8 or 10 gal/min)

CA UTION! If a tool requires a flow of 20 l/min
(5 gal/min), it is NOT permitted to operate it
at a higher setting, for instance 30 or 40 l/
min (8 or 10 gal/min). This may lead to
serious damage to the tool or even personal
injury.
Always seek the advice of the tool
manufacturer before connecting it to the
power unit.

breakers or equipment with hydraulic cylinders.
