Emission Control Warranty Statement
Your warranty rights and obligations ................................. 35
Before using a new saw
• Read the instructions carefully.
• Check cutting equipment is correctly fitted and adjusted. See
page 25.
• Refuel and start the saw. Check the carburetor settings.
See pages 26-29.
• Do not use the saw until sufficient chain oil has reached the
chain, see page 14.
IMPORTANT! If the carburetor mixture is too lean it greatly
increases the risk of engine failure.
Poor maintenance of the air filter will cause carbon build-up on
the spark plug and lead to difficult starting.
If the chain is badly adjusted it will cause increased wear or
damage to the bar, drive sprocket and chain.
A chain saw is a dangerous tool if used
carelessly or incorrectly and can cause
serious, even fatal injuries. It is very important
that you read and understand these
instructions.
You will find the following labels on your chain saw:
WARNING!
Under no circumstances may the design of
the machine be modified without the permis-
sion of the manufacturer. Always use genuine
spare parts/accessories. Non-authorized
modifications and/or accessories can result in
serious personal injury or the death of the
operator or others.
Your warranty may not cover damage or
liability caused by the use of non-authorized
accessories or replacement parts.
Warning! The inside of muffler contain
chemicals that may be carcenogenic. Avoid
contact with these elements in the event of
damaged muffler.
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.
When using a chain saw, a fire extinguisher
should be available.
Do not attempt a pruning or limbing operation
in a standing tree unless specifically trained
to do so.
Keep handles dry, clean and free of oil.
Beware of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Operate the chainsaw in well ventilated areas
only.
