INTRODUCTION  
Dear customer!  
Congratulations 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 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  
operators manual as a valuable document. By following itscontent (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 operators 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.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
screen will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to  
serious damage.  
Muffler  
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum  
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user. A muffler  
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce  
harmful exhaust gases.  
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic  
converters get very hot during use and  
remain so for some time after stopping.  
This also applies at idle speed. Contact  
can result in burns to the skin.  
!
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a  
significant risk of fire.We therefore fit certain mufflers with  
a spark arrestor screen. Check whether the muffler on  
your machine is fitted with this kind of screen.  
Remember the risk of fire!  
WARNING! The inside of the muffler  
contain chemicals that may be  
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these  
elements in the event of a damaged  
muffler.  
!
!
WARNING! Bear in mind that:  
The exhaust fumes from the engine are  
hot and may contain sparks which can  
start a fire. Never start the machine  
indoors or near combustible material!  
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the  
instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your  
machine.  
Cutting equipment  
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.  
The cutter is designed and manufactured to withstand the  
loads that edging of a lawn involves.  
Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A  
damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced.  
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to  
the machine.  
A non-balanced blade induces heavy vibrations that may  
damage the machine.  
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark  
arrestor screen this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked  
WARNING! Always stop the engine

FUEL HANDLING  
Gasoline  
Fuel safety  
Never start the machine:  
1
2
If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and  
allow remaining fuel to evaporate.  
CAUTION! Always use a quality gasoline/oil mixture with  
an octane rating of at least 87 octane ((RON+MON)/2). If  
your machine is equipped with a catalytic converter (see  
chapter on Technical data) always use a good quality  
unleaded gasoline/oil mixture. Leaded gasoline will  
destroy the catalytic converter.  
If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes,  
change your clothes.Wash any part of your body that  
has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.  
3
If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for  
leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.  
Use low-emission gasoline, also known as alkylate  
gasoline, if it is available.  
Transport and storage  
Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there  
is no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact  
with sparks or naked flames, for example, from  
electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/  
switches or boilers.  
When storing and transporting fuel always use  
approved containers intended for this purpose.  
When storing the machine for long periods the fuel  
tank must be emptied. Contact your local gas station  
to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.  
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded  
gasoline.  
The lowest recommended octane grade is 87  
((RON+MON)/2). If you run the engine on a lower  
octane grade than 87 so-called knocking can occur.  
This gives rise to a high engine temperature and  
increased bearing load, which can result in serious  
engine damage.  
Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete  
service is carried out before long-term storage.  
The transport guard must always be fitted to the  
cutting attachment when the machine is being  
transported or in storage.  
In order to prevent unintentional starting of the engine,  
the spark plug cap must always be removed during  
long-term storage, if the machine is not under close  
supervision and when performing all service  
measures.  
When working at continuous high revs a higher octane  
rating is recommended.  
Two-stroke oil  
For best results and performance use HUSQVARNA  
two-stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for  
our air-cooled two stroke-engines.  
WARNING!Take care when handling fuel.  
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion  
and inhaling fumes.  
!
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled  
engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated  
TCW).  
Fuel  
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.  
Mixing ratio  
CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke  
engine and must always been run using a mixture of  
gasoline and two-stroke engine oil. It is important to  
accurately measure the amount of oil to be mixed to  
ensure that the correct mixture is obtained. When mixing  
small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can  
drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.

FUEL HANDLING  
Fueling  
Mixing  
Always mix the gasoline and oil in a clean container  
intended for fuel.  
Always start by filling half the amount of the gasoline  
to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix  
(shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of  
gasoline.  
WARNING! Taking the following  
precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:  
!
Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling  
the machine’s fuel tank.  
Do not smoke or place hot objects near

refuelling.  
Always move the machine away from the  
refuelling area before starting.  
Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a  
time.  
Clean the area around the fuel cap. Contamination in  
the tank can cause operating problems.  
If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank  
should be emptied and cleaned.  
Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the  
container before filling the tank.  
WARNING! The catalytic converter  
muffler gets very hot during and after

MAINTENANCE  
Basic setting  
Carburetor  
The basic carburetor settings are adjusted during  
testing at the factory. The basic setting is richer than  
the optimal setting and should be maintained for the  
first few hours the machine is in use. The carburettor  
should then be finely adjusted. Fine adjustment  
should be carried out by a skilled technician.  
Your Husqvarna product has been designed and  
manufactured to specifications that reduce harmful  
emissions. After the engine has used 8-10 tanks of fuel  
the engine will be run-in.To ensure that it continues to run  
at peak performance and to minimise harmful exhaust  
emissions after the running-in period, ask your dealer/  
service workshop (who will have a rev counter at their  
disposal) to adjust your carburettor.  
CAUTION! If the cutting attachment rotates when the  
engine is idling the idle adjustment screw T should be  
turned anti-clockwise until the cutting attachment stops.  
WARNING! The complete clutch cover  
and shaft must be fitted before the  
machine is started, otherwise the clutch  
can come loose and cause personal  
injury.  
Rec. idle speed: 2700 rpm  
!
Recommended max. speed: See the Technical data  
section.  
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be  
adjusted so that the cutting attachment

Function  
stops, contact your dealer/service  
workshop. Do not use the machine until  
it has been correctly adjusted or  
repaired.  
The carburetor governs the engine’s speed via the  
throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the  
carburetor. The air/fuel mixture is adjustable. Correct  
adjustment is essential to get the best performance  
from the machine.  
Fine adjustment  
When the machine has been ”run-in” the carburetor  
should be finely adjusted. The fine adjustment  
should be carried out by a qualified person. First  
adjust the L-jet, then the idling screw T and then the  
H-jet.  
The setting of the carburetor means that the engine is  
adapted to local conditions, for example, the climate,  
altitude, fuel and the type of 2-stroke oil.  
Conditions  
The carburetor has three adjustment controls:  
L = Low speed jet  
Before any adjustments are made, make sure that the  
air filter is clean and the air filter cover is fitted. If you  
adjust the carburettor when the air filter is dirty it will  
result in a leaner mixture when the filter is finally  
cleaned. This can lead to serious engine damage.  
H = High speed jet  
T = Idle adjustment screw  
Carefully turn both jets, L and H, so that they are  
midway between fully screwed in and fully screwed  
out.  
Do not attempt to adjust the L and H jets beyond either  
stop as this could cause damage.  
Now start the machine according to the starting  
instructions and let it warm up for 10 minutes.  
CAUTION! If the cutting attachment rotates when the  
engine is idling the idle adjustment screw T should be  
turned anti-clockwise until the cutting attachment stops.  
The L and H-jets are used to adjust the supply of fuel  
to match the rate that air is admitted, which is  
controlled with the throttle. If they are screwed  
clockwise the air/fuel ratio becomes leaner (less fuel)  
and if they are turned anti-clockwise the ratio  
becomes richer (more fuel). A lean mixture gives a  
higher engine speed and a rich mixture gives a lower  
engine speed.  
The T-screw regulates the throttle setting at idle  
speed. If the T-screw is turned clockwise this gives a  
higher idle speed; turning it anti-clockwise gives a  
lower idle speed.

MAINTENANCE  
Low speed jet L  
High speed jet H  
Try to find the highest idling speed, turning the low speed  
needle L clockwise respectively counter-clockwise.When  
the highest speed has been found, turn the low speed  
needle L 1/4 turn counter-clockwise.  
The high speed jet H affects the engine power, speed,  
temperature and fuel consumption. If the high speed jet H  
is set too lean (screwed in too far) the engine speed will  
be too high and cause engine damage. Do not let the  
engine run at full speed for more than 10 seconds.  
+ 1/4  
L
CAUTION! If the cutting attachment rotates when the  
engine is idling the idle adjustment screw T should be  
turned anti-clockwise until the cutting attachment stops.  
Fine adjustment of the idle speedT  
Apply full throttle and turn the high speed jet H very slowly  
clockwise until the engine slows down.Then turn the high  
speed jet H very slowly anticlockwise until the engine  
starts to run unevenly. Now turn the high speed jet H  
slowly clockwise a little way until the engine runs  
smoothly.  
Adjust the idle speed using the idle adjustment screw T, if  
it is necessary to readjust. First turn the idle adjustment  
screw T clockwise until the cutting attachment starts to  
rotate.Then turn the screw anticlockwise until the cutting  
attachment stops. The idle speed is correctly adjusted  
when the engine will run smoothly in every position. The  
idle speed should also be well below the speed at which  
the cutting attachment starts to rotate.  
Note that the engine should not be under load when you  
adjust the high speed jet H.You should therefore remove  
the cutting attachment, nut, support flange and drive disc  
before adjusting the high speed jet H.  
The high speed jet H is adjusted correctly when the  
machine burbles a little. If the machine races then the  
setting is too lean. If the engine produces a lot of smoke  
and burbles a lot then the setting is too rich.  
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be  
adjusted so that the cutting attachment  
H
!
stops, contact your dealer/service  
workshop. Do not use the machine until  
it has been correctly adjusted or  
repaired.  
CAUTION! For optimum adjustment of the carburettor,  
contact a qualified dealer/service workshop that has a  
revolution counter at their disposal.  
Correctly adjusted carburetor  
When the carburetor is correctly adjusted the machine will  
accelerate without hesitation and burble a little at  
maximum speed. It is also important that the cutting  
attachment does not rotate at idle. If the low speed jet L is  
set too lean it may cause starting difficulties and poor  
acceleration.  
If the high speed jet H is set too lean it will result in less  
power, less performance, poor acceleration and/or  
damage to the engine.  
If both the L and H jets are set too rich it will results in  
acceleration problems or too low a working speed.

Muffler  
Cooling system  
CAUTION! Some mufflers are fitted with a catalytic  
converter. See chapter on Technical data to see whether  
your machine is fitted with a catalytic converter.  
To keep the working temperature as low as possible the  
machine is equipped with a cooling system.

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to  
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The  
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may  
cause fire if directed against dry and combustible  
material.

Air intake on the starter.  
Fins on the flywheel.  
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor  
screen. If your machine has this type of muffler, you  
should clean the screen at least once a week.This is best  
done with a wire brush. On mufflers without a catalytic  
converter the screen should be cleaned weekly, or  
replaced if necessary. On mufflers fitted with a catalytic  
converter the screen should be checked, and if necessary  
cleaned, monthly.If the screen is damaged it should be  
replaced. If the screen is frequently blocked, this can be  
a sign that the performance of the catalytic converter is  
impaired. Contact your dealer to inspect the muffler. A  
blocked screen will cause the machine to overheat and  
result in damage to the cylinder and piston.  
Cooling fins on the cylinder.  
Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).  
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more  
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling  
system results in the machine overheating which causes  
damage to the piston and cylinder.  
Spark plug  
The spark plug condition is influenced by:  
Incorrect carburetor adjustment.  
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type  
of oil).  
A dirty air filter.  
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug  
electrodes, which may result in operating problems and  
starting difficulties.  
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs  
poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first  
before taking any further action. If the spark plug is dirty,  
clean it and check that the electrode gap is 0.020 inch (0.5

mm). The spark plug should be replaced after about a  
month in operation or earlier if necessary.  
Oiling the air filter  
Always use HUSQVARNA filter oil, art. no. 531 00 92-48.  
The filter oil contains a solvent to make it spread evenly  
through the filter.You should therefore avoid skin contact.  
Put the filter in a plastic bag and pour the filter oil over it.  
Knead the plastic bag to distribute the oil. Squeeze the  
excess oil out of the filter inside the plastic bag and pour  
off the excess before fitting the filter to the machine.Never  
use common engine oil.This would drain through the filter  
quite quickly and collect in the bottom.  
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug  
type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/  
cylinder. Check that the spark plug is fitted with a  
suppressor.  
Air filter  
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust  
and dirt in order to avoid:  
Angle gear  
Carburettor malfunctions  
Starting problems  
Loss of engine power  
Unnecessary wear to engine parts  
Excessive fuel consumption.  
The angle gear is filled with a sufficient quantity of grease  
at the factory. However, before using the machine you  
should check that the angle gear is filled to 3/4 with  
grease. Use HUSQVARNA special grease.  
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if  
conditions are exceptionally dusty.  
Cleaning the air filter  
Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. Wash it  
clean in warm, soapy water. Ensure that the filter is dry  
before refitting it.  
326Ex  
326ES  
The grease in the bevel gear does not normally need to  
be changed except if repairs are carried out.  
An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be  
cleaned completely.The filter must therefore be replaced  
with a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter  
must always be replaced.  
If the machine is used in dusty conditions the air filter  
should be soaked in oil. See instructions under the  
heading Oiling the air filter.

the part will be repaired or replaced by Husqvarna Forest  
& Garden at no cost. Any such part repaired or replaced  
under warranty is warranted for the remainder of the  
period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for  
the part. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for  
replacement as required in the maintenance schedule, is  
warranted for two years. If any such part fails during the  
period of warranty coverage, it will be repaired and  
replaced by Husqvarna Forest & Garden at no cost. Any  
such part repaired or replaced under the warranty is  
warranted for the remaining warranty period. Any  
warranted part that is scheduled only for regular  
inspection in the maintenance schedule will be warranted  
for a period of two years. A statement in such written  
instructions to the effect of ”repair or replace as  
necessary” will not reduce the period of warranty  
coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under  
warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty  
period.
