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 Husqvarna 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 the more than 300 years in existence, 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. The business concept is to develop, manufacture and market motor-driven products for forestry and  
gardening, as well as for the building and construction industry. Husqvarnas aim is also to be at the front edge for  
ergonomics, usability, security and environmental protection.That is the reason why we have developed many different  
features to add to our products within these areas.  
We are convinced that you will appreciate with great satisfaction the quality and performance of our product for a very  
long time to come. The purchase of one of our products 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 authorised dealers, ask for the  
address of your nearest service workshop.  
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 its content (usage, service, maintenance, etc), the life span and  
the second-hand value of the machine can be extended. If you sell this machine, make sure that the operators manual  
is passed on to the buyer.  
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.

Li-ion  
This section describes how to choose and maintain your  
cutting equipment in order to:  
Obtain maximum cutting performance.  
Extend the life of cutting equipment.  
IMPORTANT!  
Only use cutting attachments with the guards we  
recommend! See the chapter on Technical data.  
Refer to the instructions for the cutting attachment to  
check the correct way to load the line and the correct  
line diameter.  
See instructions under the Start heading. Start the  
machine and apply full power. Release the power trigger  
and check that the cutting attachment stops and remain at  
a standstill.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
Trimmer head  
WARNING! Always use recommended  
trimmer line. See technical data. Failure  
to follow this instruction may cause  
personal injury.  
!
IMPORTANT!  
Always ensure the trimmer line is wound tightly and  
evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will  
generate harmful vibration.  
Only use the recommended trimmer heads and  
trimmer lines. These have been tested by the  
manufacturer to suit a particular motor size. This is  
especially important when a fully automatic trimmer  
head is used. Only use the recommended cutting  
attachment. See the chapter on Technical data.  
Smaller machines generally require small trimmer  
heads and vice versa. This is because when clearing  
using a line, the motor must throw out the line radially  
from the trimmer head and overcome the resistance of  
the grass being cleared.  
The length of the line is also important. A longer cord  
requires greater motor power than a shorter line of the  
same diameter.  
Make sure that the cutters on the trimmer guard are  
intact. These are used to cut the line to the correct  
length. Different line lengths can result in  
unnecessary vibrations. Tap the trimmer head to get  
correct lengths on the line.  
To increase the life of the line it can be soaked in water  
for a couple of days.This will make the line tougher so  
that it lasts longer.

WORKING TECHNIQUES  
Safety instructions while working  
General working instructions  
Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the  
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks,  
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move  
suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping  
ground.  
IMPORTANT!  
This section takes up the basic safety precautions for  
working with a lawn trimmer.  
If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain  
how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your  
dealer or your service workshop.  
Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your  
capability.  
WARNING! The machine can cause  
serious personal injury. Read the safety  
instructions carefully. Learn how to use  
the machine.  
!
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at  
all times.  
WARNING! Always remove the battery  
before any maintenance on the machine.  
Always hold the machine with both hands. Hold the  
machine on the right side of your body.  
!
Basic safety rules  
Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions  
under the ”Personal protective equipment” heading.  
1
Look around you:  
To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot  
affect your control of the machine.  
To ensure that people, animals, etc., do not come into  
contact with the cutting attachment or loose objects  
that are thrown out by the cutting attachment.  
CAUTION! Do not use the machine unless you are  
able to call for help in the event of an accident. Ensure  
that no-one comes closer than 15 metres while you  
are working.  
Keep all parts of your body away from the rotating  
cutting attachment. Keep the cutting attachment  
below waist level.  
Turn off the machine when it has to be moved. Always  
remove the battery when passing the machine to  
another person.  
2
3
Inspect the working area. Remove all loose objects,  
such as stones, broken glass, nails, steel wire, string,  
etc. that could be thrown out or become wrapped  
around the cutting attachment.  
Never put the machine down without turning it off first  
and always remove the battery.  
Never use the machine in bad weather, for instance in  
fog, in rain, damp or in wet locations,strong winds,  
intense cold, risk of lightning, etc. Working in bad  
weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous  
conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.  
If any foreign object is hit or if vibrations occur stop the  
machine immediately. Remove the battery from the  
machine and check that the machine is not damaged.  
If any unwanted vibrations occur, tap out new line to  
give the line the correct length and the vibrations  
should stop.  
Release the power trigger after each working  
operation to save battery power.

WORKING TECHNIQUES  
Rotation direction  
WARNING! Neither the operator of the  
machine nor anyone else may attempt to  
remove the cut material while the motor  
is running or the cutting attachment is  
rotating, as this can result in serious  
injury.  
It is possible to change the rotation direction of the  
trimmer head in any position, at full speed or at stop  
postion.  
!
!
Turn off the machine and remove the  
battery before removing materials that  
are wound around the trimmer head as  
otherwise there is risk of injury. The  
bevel gear can get hot during use and  
may remain so for a while afterwards.You  
could get burnt if you touch it.  
WARNING! Watch out for thrown objects.  
Always wear approved eye protection.  
Never lean over the cutting attachment  
guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be  
thrown up into the eyes causing  
blindness or serious injury.  
When the rotation button is pressed, the green diode will  
lit and the trimmer head rotates in counterclockwise. The  
trimmer head always rotates clockwise by default (green  
LED is off).  
It is easier to tap out the trimmer line to make it longer  
when the trimmer head rotates clockwise.  
Keep unauthorised persons at a  
distance. Children, animals, onlookers  
and helpers should be kept outside the  
safety zone of 15 metres. Stop the  
machine immediately if anyone  
approaches. Never swing the machine  
around without first checking behind you  
to make sure no-one is within the safety  
zone.  
Automatic switch off functionality  
The machine is equipped with a shutdown feature that  
deactivates the machine if not used. The green LED and  
the machine will switch off after 1 minute.  
Grass trimming with a trimmer head  
Safety instructions after completing work  
Make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before  
cleaning, carrying out repairs or an inspection.  
Remove the battery from the machine.  
WARNING! Sometimes branches or  
grass get caught between the guard and  
cutting attachment. Always remove the  
battery before cleaning.  
SavE mode  
!
The machine is equipped with a battery saving function  
(SavE).Activate the function by pressing the SavE button.  
A green LED will light to indicate that the function is on.  
Trimming  
In most cases SavE mode is the most optimum when  
trimming and gives longest runtime. Release the power  
trigger after each working operation to save battery  
power.  
Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an  
angle. It is the end of the line that does the work. Let  
the line work at its own pace. Never press the line into  
the area to be cut.  
The line can easily remove grass and weeds up  
against walls, fences, trees and borders. However it  
can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes,  
and damage fence posts.  
Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the  
line to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.

WORKING TECHNIQUES  
Clearing  
The clearing technique removes all unwanted  
vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the  
ground and tilt it. Let the end of the line strike the  
ground around trees, posts, statues and the like.  
CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the  
line.  
The line wears quicker and must be fed forward more  
often when working against stones, brick, concrete,  
metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with  
trees and wooden fences.  
When trimming and clearing, you should use less than  
full throttle so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce  
the wear on the trimmer head.  
Cutting  
• The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to  
reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the line  
parallel to the ground when cutting.Avoid pressing the  
trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the  
lawn and damage the tool.  
Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into  
contact with the ground during normal cutting.  
Constant contact of this type can cause damage and  
wear to the trimmer head.  
Sweeping  
• The fan effect of the rotating line can be used for quick  
and easy clearing up. Hold the line parallel to and  
above the area to be swept and move the tool to and  
fro.  
When cutting and sweeping you should use full  
throttle to obtain the best results.
