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 chain saws in 1959, and it
is within this area Husqvarna is working today.
Today Husqvarna is one of the leading manufacturers in
the w
orld 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 ser
vice 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 y
our companion for a long time. Think of this

content (using, service, maintenance etc) the life span

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.
