INTR 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 Huskvarna 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 over 300 years of continuous operation, 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 chainsaws 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. We develop, manufacture and market high quality motor driven products for forestry and gardening as
well as for building and construction industry.
Your purchase 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 authorized dealers, ask for the address of your nearest servicing dealer.
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 ever lend or sell this machine, make sure that the
borrower or buyer gets the operator
′ s manual, so they will also know how to properly maintain and use it.
Thank you for using a Husqvarna product.
Husqvarna AB has a policy of continuous product development and therefore reserves the right to modify the design and
appearance of products without prior notice.

Cutting equipment
This section descr ibes how you can achieve maximum
clearing capacity and extend the life of the cutting
attachment through correct maintenance and using the
right type of cutting attachment.
Onl y use cutting equipment recommended by us!
See the Technical data section.
K eep the chain’s cutting teeth properly sharpened!
Follow our instructions and use the recommended
file gauge.
A damaged or badly sharpened chain
increases the risk of accidents.
Maintain the correct raker c learance! Follow our
instructions and use the recommended raker gauge.
Too large a clearance increases the risk of kickback.
K eep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is slack
it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased wear on
the bar, chain and drive sprocket.
K eep cutting equipment well lubricated and properly
maintained!
A poorly lubricated chain is more likely to
break and lead to increased wear on the bar, chain and
drive sprocket.
Specifi cation of bar and saw
chain
When the cutting attachment supplied with y our machine
has to be replaced, because it is worn out or damaged,
you must only fit the types of bar and saw chain
recommended by us.
Guide bar
• Length (inches/cm)
• Chain pitch (inches). The spacing between the drive
links of the chain must match the spacing of the teeth
on the bar tip sprocket and drive sprocket.
!
W ARNING! Never use a machine with
faulty safety equipment.The machine’s
safety equipment must be checked and
maintained as described in this section.
If your machine fails any of these checks
contact your service agent to get it
repaired.
!
W ARNING! Always stop the engine
before doing any work on the cutting
attachment.This continues to rotate even
after the throttle has been released.
Ensure that the cutting attachment has
stopped completely and disconnect the
spark plug cap before you start to work
on it.

SAFETY INSTR UCTIONS
English – 7
• Number of drive links.The number of drive links is
determined by the length of the bar, the chain pitch
and the number of teeth on the bar tip sprocket.
• Bar groove width (inches/mm). The groove in the bar
must match the width of the chain drive links.
• Saw chain oil hole and hole for chain tensioner pin.
Sa w chain
• Saw chain pitch (inches). (The distance between
three drive links, divided by two.)
• Drive link width (mm/inches)
• Number of drive links.
Sharpening y our chain and
adjusting raker clearance
General inf ormation on sharpening
cutting teeth
• Never use a blunt chain. When the chain is blunt you
have to exert more pressure to force the bar through
the wood and the cuttings will be very small. If the
chain is very blunt it will not produce any cuttings at
all. Wood powder would be the only result.
• A sharp chain eats its way through the wood and
produces long, thick cuttings.The cutting part of the
chain is called the cutting link and this consists of a
cutting tooth (A) and the raker lip (B).The cutting
depth is determined by the difference in height
between the two.
• When you sharpen a cutting tooth there are five
important factors to remember.
1 Filing angle
!
W ARNING! The risk of kickback is
increased with a badly sharpened chain!

SAFETY INSTR UCTIONS
8 – English
2 Cutting angle
3 File position
4 Round file diameter
5 File depth
It is very difficult to sharpen a chain correctly without the
right equipment. We recommend that you use our file
gauge. This will help you obtain the maximum kickback
reduction and cutting performance from your chain.
Sharpening cutting teeth
• To sharpen cutting teeth you will need a round file and
a file gauge.
• Check that the chain is correctly tensioned. A slack
chain will move sideways, making it more difficult to
sharpen correctly.

!
W ARNING! The following faults will
increase the risk of kickback
considerably:
File angle too large
Cutting angle too small
File diameter too small

SAFETY INSTR UCTIONS
English – 9
• Always file cutting teeth from the inside face outwards.
Reduce the pressure on the return stroke. File all the
teeth on one side of the bar first. Then turn the saw
over and file the remaining teeth from the other side.
• File all the teeth to the same length. When the length
of the cutting teeth is reduced to 5/32 inch (4 mm) the
chain is worn out and should be replaced.
General ad vice on setting raker clearance
• When you sharpen the cutting teeth you reduce the
raker clearance (=cutting depth). To maintain optimal
cutting performance you must file back the raker lip to
the recommended height.
• On a low-kickback cutting link the front edge of the
raker lip is rounded. It is very important that you
maintain this radius or bevel when you adjust the raker
clearance.
• We recommend that you use our raker gauge to
achieve the correct clearance and bevel on the raker
lip.
Setting the raker clearance
•Before setting the raker clearance the cutting teeth
should be newly sharpened. We recommend that you
adjust the raker clearance every third time you
sharpen the chain. NOTE! This recommendation
assumes that the length of the cutting teeth is not
reduced excessively.
• To adjust the raker clearance you will need a flat file
and a raker gauge.
• Place the gauge over the raker lip.
• Place the file over the part of the lip that protrudes
through the gauge and file off the excess. The
clearance is correct when you no longer feel any
resistance as you draw the file over the gauge.
!
WARNING! The risk of kickback is
increased if the raker clearance is too
large!

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10 – English
Tensioning the saw chain
•The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to
take up the slack.
• Check the chain tension every time you refuel. NOTE!
A new chain has a running-in period during which you
should check the tension more frequently.
• Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so
tight that you cannot pull it round freely by hand.
1 Undo the bar nut.
2 Raise the tip of the bar and stretch the chain by
tightening the chain tensioning screw using the
combination spanner. Tighten the chain until it does
not sag from the underside of the bar.
3 Use the combination spanner to tighten the blade nut
while holding up the tip of the bar. Check that you can
pull the saw chain round freely by hand.
Lubricating cutting equipment
Chain oil
•Chain oil must demonstrate good adhesion to the
chain and also maintain its flow characteristics
regardless of whether it is warm summer or cold
winter weather.
• As a chainsaw manufacturer we have developed an
optimal chain oil which has a vegetable oil base. We
recommend the use of our own oil for both maximum
chain life and to minimise environmental damage.
• If our own chain oil is not available, standard chain oil
is recommended.
• In areas where oil specifically for lubrication of saw
chains is unavailable, ordinary EP 90 transmission oil
may be used.
•Never use waste oil! This is dangerous for yourself,
the machine and the environment.
Filling with chain oil
The oil pump is preset at the factory to meet most
lubrication requirements. A full oil tank will last about half
as long as a full tank of fuel.You should therefore check
the level of oil in the oil tank regularly to avoid damage to
the saw chain and bar that could occur due to lack of
lubrication.
!
WARNING! A slack chain may jump off
the bar and cause serious or even fatal
injury.
!
WARNING! Poor lubrication of cutting
equipment may cause the chain to snap,
which could lead to serious, even fatal
injuries.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
English – 11
Filling with oil
•Open the cap on top of the bar head
• Fill with Husqvarna saw chain oil.
• Refit the cap.
Checking chain lubrication
Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel. Aim the
tip of the bar at a light coloured surface about 20 cm (8
inches) away. After 1 minute running at 3/4 throttle you
should see a distinct line of oil on the light surface.
Adjusting chain lubrication
When cutting dry or hard species of wood it may be
necessary to increase lubrication.Turn the adjuster screw
clockwise to increase the oil flow. Remember that this will
increase oil consumption, check the level in the oil tank
regularly. Turn the adjuster screw anticlockwise to
decrease the oil flow.
What to do if lubrication does not work:
1Check that the oil channel in the bar is not obstructed.
Clean if necessary.
2 Check that the oil channel in the gear housing is
clean. Clean if necessary.
3 Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely. If the chain
lubrication system is still not working after carrying out
the above checks you should contact your service
workshop.
Checking wear on cutting
equipment
Saw chain
Check the chain daily for:
• Visible cracks in rivets and links.
• Whether the chain is stiff.
• Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
We recommend you compare the existing chain with a
new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12 – English
When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to
only 5/32 inch (4 mm) the chain must be replaced.
Chain drive sprocket
Regularly check the degree of wear on the drive sprocket.
Replace if wear is excessive.
Guide bar
Check regularly:
• Whether there are burrs on the edges of the bar.
Remove these with a file if necessary.
• Whether the groove in the bar has become badly
worn. Replace the bar if necessary.
• Whether the tip of the bar is uneven or badly worn. If
a hollow forms on the underside of the bar tip this is
due to running with a slack chain.
To prolong the life of the bar you should turn it over daily.
Safety instructions for using a
pruning saw
CAUTION! Please read the operator’s manual carefully
and make sure you understand the instructions before
using the machine.
Personal protection
•Always wear boots and other equipment described

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
14 – English
Basic working techniques
•Hold the machine as close to your body as possible to
get the best balance.
• Make sure that the tip does not touch the ground.
• Do not rush the work, but work steadily until all the
branches have been cut back cleanly.
• 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.
• Always work at full throttle.
Observe great care when working close to overhead
power lines. Falling branches can result in short-
circuiting.
• Whenever possible position yourself so that you can
make the cut at right angles to the branch.
• Do not work with the shaft held straight out in front of
you (like a fishing rod) as this increases the apparent
weight of the cutting attachment.
• Cut large branches in sections so that you have better
control over where they fall. CAUTION! Be aware of
the risk that the cut branch may bounce against the
operator when landing on the ground.
!
WARNING! Never stand directly
underneath a branch that is being cut.
This could lead to serious or even fatal
personal injury.
!
WARNING! Observe the applicable safety
regulations for work in the vicinity of
overhead power lines.
!
WARNING! This machine is not
electrically insulated. If the machine
touches or comes close to high-voltage
power lines it could lead to death or
serious bodily injury. Electricity can
jump from one point to another by
arcing.The higher the voltage, the
greater the distance electricity can jump.
Electricity can also travel through
branches and other objects, especially if
they are wet. Always keep a distance of
at least 10 m between the machine and
high-voltage power lines and/or any
objects that are touching them. If have to
work within this safe distance you
should always contact the relevant
power company to make sure the power
is switched off before you start work.
!
WARNING! This machine has a long
reach. Make sure that no people or
animals come closer than 15 m when the
machine is running.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
English – 15
•Never cut through the swelling at the root of the
branch as this will slow down healing and increase the
risk of fungal attack!
• Use the stop at the base of the cutting head to provide
support during cutting. This will help prevent the
cutting attachment from ”jumping” on the branch.
• Make an initial cut on the underside of the branch
before cutting through the branch. This will prevent
tearing of the bark, which could lead to slow healing
and cause permanent damage to the tree. The cut
should not be deeper than 1/3 of the branch thickness
to prevent jamming. Keep the chain running while you
withdraw the cutting attachment from the branch to
prevent it jamming.
• Use the harness to support the weight of the machine
and make it easier to handle.
• Make sure you have a firm footing and that you can
work without being hampered by branches, stones
and trees.
!
WARNING! Never activate the throttle
without having the cutting attachment in
full view.
