Before using your new cut-off saw:
Read the Operator’s Manual carefully.
Check the assembly and adjustment of the cutting chain, see
chapter ”
Assembly
”.
Start the engine and check the carburetor settings. See
chapter ”
Maintenance
”, section ”
Carburetor
”. When adjusted
correctly the cutting chain should not rotate when idling.
Setting the idling speed is described in the Operator’s
Manual. Adjust the speed according to these instructions. Do
not use the cut-off saw if the idling speed is not correctly
adjusted!
Let your Husqvarna dealer check the cut-off saw and carry
out essential adjustments and repairs.
WARNING!
Under no circumstances should you modify
the original design of the cut-off saw without
approval from the manufacturer. Always use
genuine spare parts. Unauthorized
modifications or accessories may lead to
serious injury or death.
Your warranty does not cover damage or
liability caused by the use of non-authorized
accessories or replacement parts.

WARNING!
Use of products which cut, grind, drill, sand or
shape material can generate dust and vapors
which may contain harmful chemicals. Know
the nature of the material being worked on
and wear appropriate dust mask or respirator
protection.
