Roll-Over Protective Structure and Safety Belts
ROLL-OVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE AND SAFETY BELTS
HUV 4421-G and HUV 4421-D vehicles are equipped with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and
safety belts for each occupant. See following WARNING.
ý WARNING
• The ROPS must be properly installed before operating the vehicle. Husqvarna strongly urges
that the vehicle’s occupants be properly restrained at all times with the safety belts provided.
Pregnant woman: Consult your doctor for specific recommendations. The safety belt should be worn securely
and as low as possible over the hips and not on the waist.
Injured person: Depending on the injury, first check with your doctor for specific recommendations.
To secure the safety belt, sit up straight and well back in the seat. Pull the safety belt out of the retractor and
insert the tab into the buckle. A click will be heard when the tab locks into the buckle. Position the lap belt as
low as possible on the hips – not on the waist.
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop. It also may lock if the occupant leans forward too quickly.
A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend, and the occupant can move freely. If the safety belt cannot
be pulled out of the retractor, firmly pull the belt and release it. It should then pull smoothly out of the retractor.
To release the safety belt, press the buckle release button (1) and allow the belt to retract (Figure 7). If the
belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains free of twists
as it retracts.

Figure 7 Release Safety Belt
ý WARNING
• Do not operate the vehicle with the ROPS removed. Doing so could result in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
• Do not remove or modify any component of the ROPS structure. Doing so will result in
voiding the ROPS certification and could weaken the ROPS, resulting in serious injury or
death.
• Do not operate the vehicle if the ROPS is damaged. If the ROPS is damaged, replace the
structure. Do not attempt repair.
• The driver and passenger must be restrained at all times with the safety belts provided to help
prevent injury in the event of sudden braking, collision, or roll-over.
• In the event of a roll-over, do not attempt to jump or otherwise exit the vehicle. Remain seated
with safety belt fastened and with arms and legs inside the vehicle.

Seat Latch and Adjustment
ý WARNING
• After inserting the tab, make sure the tab and buckle are locked and that the belt is not
twisted.
• Loose fitting safety belts could increase the chance of injury due to sliding under the belt if
sudden braking should occur. Keep the safety belt snug and positioned as low on the hip
bone as possible.
• Use a single safety belt for one person at a time. Do not use a single safety belt for two or
more people – this includes children.
• No more than one person per bucket seat at one time. No more than two persons per bench
seat at one time. Do not allow people to ride in any part of the vehicle that is not equipped with
a seat and a safety belt. Do not allow a passenger to hold a child in his or her lap while the
vehicle is moving.
• This vehicle is not designed to meet child seat compatibility requirements. Children requiring
a child safety seat must not ride on the vehicle. Comply with state and local laws pertaining to
child safety.
ý CAUTION
• Be careful not to damage the safety belt webbing or hardware.
• Inspect the safety belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. Damaged
parts should be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system.
• Keep safety belts clean and dry. If cleaning is necessary, use a mild soap and lukewarm water
solution. Do not use bleach, dye or abrasive cleaners as they may severely weaken the safety
belts.
• Do not insert coins, clip, etc. in the buckle as this may prevent the tab from locking into the
buckle properly.
• If the safety belt does not function normally, contact your dealer/distributor or trained
technician immediately. Do not occupy the seat until the safety belt is repaired.

5. Install the seat. See preceding WARNING “Make sure seat hinges and latch...”
PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and adjusted at the factory; however, upon receiving your new
vehicle(s), you should become familiar with the controls, indicators, and operation. Carefully inspect each
vehicle to ensure that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following list as a guide to inspect the vehicle. This list should be used daily and in conjunction with
the Performance Inspection and the Periodic Service Schedule on page 29 to ensure that the vehicle is in
proper working condition. Any problems should be corrected by a dealer/distributor or a trained technician.
• General: All the parts should be in place and properly installed. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, and screws
are tight. Check hose clights for tight fit.
• Safety and information decals: Check to ensure that all safety and information decals are in place
• Safety belts: Visually inspect for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. See Roll-Over Protective Structure
• Tires: Check for proper tire pressure. Visually inspect tires for wear, damage, and proper inflation on a
daily basis. See Vehicle Specifications on page 51.
• Battery: Check electrolyte to ensure it is at the proper level (Figure 40, Page 47). Check battery posts.
Wires should be tight and free of corrosion, and battery should be fully charged.
• Engine: Check for proper engine oil and coolant levels and leaks. See Engine Oil on page 34. Check
air filter and replace if necessary.
• Fuel: Check fuel level. See Fueling Instructions on page 43. Check fuel tank, lines, fuel cap, pump,
and fuel filters for fuel leakage. Drain water from the fuel filter (diesel vehicle). See Draining Water
• Exhaust system: Check for leaks.
• Hydraulic brakes: Check fluid level. Wear in the brakes before initial vehicle operation. On a flat, open
surface, accelerate the vehicle to moderate speed, then apply the brakes under modest, steady pres-
sure. Repeat this procedure five times. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Perform the wear-in procedure when the vehicle has been in operation for less than a week, or
when the brake pads or rotor have been replaced.

Performance Inspection
PERFORMANCE INSPECTION
After you have familiarized yourself with the vehicle controls and have read and understood the driving
instructions, take the vehicle for a test drive.
Use the following list, in addition to the Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist, as a guide to inspect the
vehicle daily for proper operation. Any problems should be corrected by a dealer/distributor or a trained tech-
nician.
• Brakes: Be sure the brakes function properly. When brake pedal is fully pressed under moderate pres-
sure, the vehicle should come to a smooth, straight stop. If the vehicle swerves or fails to stop, have
the brake system checked and adjusted as required. When the brake pedal is fully pressed under
heavy pressure, the pedal should feel firm and the distance between the back of the pedal and the

Figure 17 Brake Fluid Reservoir
The brake fluid reservoir (1) is located under the hood (Figure 16). Raise the hood to check the brake fluid
level.
During the brake fluid level inspection, also inspect the following:
• The presence of brake fluid on the exterior surface of the master cylinder indicates a leak.
• The brake fluid reservoir diaphragm (located in the cap) should not have holes or other damage.
BRAKE FLUID
Brake fluid level should be within 1/4-inch (6 mm) from the top of the reservoir (Figure 17). Also, brake fluid
should be clean with no residue in the bottom of the reservoir or other evidence of contamination.
ý CAUTION
• Use only DOT 5 (silicone) brake fluid. Use of any other type brake fluid is not recommended.
ENGINE OIL
Even though the low oil warning light on the instrument panel should illuminate if the oil level becomes low, the
engine oil level should be checked daily. The vehicle should be on a level surface when the oil is checked. Do
not overfill the engine with oil.

Metal particles may be discovered in the fluid or on the magnetic drain plug when changing the differential or
transmission fluid. These particles are normal and expected for the first few fluid changes. This is a result of
the gears being "net forged", meaning the gears are forged to a shape very close to the final gear size but the
teeth are not finish machined prior to assembly. The "finish machining" occurs when the gears make contact
under load during vehicle operation. The magnetic drain plug is included in the design to collect the metal par-
ticles generated from the gear break in process. This is an established process and is not detrimental to gear
service life.

Biodiesel Fuel (Diesel Vehicles Only)
Biodiesel has unique qualities that should be considered before it is used in the Kubota D722 diesel engine.
During cold weather, plugged fuel lines, plugged fuel systems, hard starting, and other unknown failures can
result from use of this fuel.
Biodiesel is an excellent medium for microbial growth and contamination. Microbial contamination can cause
corrosion of the fuel system and prematurely plugged fuel filters. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Use of biodiesel may result in premature failure of fuel system components. Kubota has docu-
mented problems such as plugged fuel filters and deteriorated fuel lines during testing of biodiesel.
Biodiesel can damage painted surfaces. Be sure to remove all spilled fuel immediately to help prevent dam-
age to painted surfaces.
If biodiesel will be used in the Kubota D722 engine, be sure that it meets the following requirements:
• The fuel blend should contain no more than 5% biodiesel by volume.
• The petroleum portion of the fuel blend must meet ASTM standard D975 and the biodiesel portion of
the fuel blend must meet ASTM standard D6751.
• For Europe, the fuel blend must meet the EN590 standard. See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Never use any fuel that does not meet specifications or fuel in which the contents cannot be
identified. Using blends higher than 5% biodiesel content can affect engine life and cause
deterioration of hoses, tubelines, injectors, injector pump and seals.
• For more information on these fuel standards, please contact your nearest Kubota dealer.

Cleaning the Vehicle
CLEANING THE VEHICLE
Each vehicle is equipped with hand wash-washable front and rear bodies. The vehicle has a powder-coated
steel cargo bed (or optional aluminum flat bed). Use commercial automotive cleaning solutions with a sponge
or soft cloth for normal cleaning. A garden hose at normal residential water pressure is adequate. To remove
oxidation or discoloration from aluminum, use a commercially available aluminum cleaner paste and fine
grade (No. 00) steel wool.
The manufacturer does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process will
expose electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering electrical components can result in water dam-
age and subsequent component failure.
Use non-abrasive wax products. Battery acid, fertilizers, tars, asphalt, creosote, paint, or chewing gum should
be removed immediately to prevent possible stains.
The seats of the vehicle will last longer with proper cleaning. Use a solution of 10% liquid soap and warm
water applied with a soft cloth. For imbedded dirt, a soft bristle brush may be used. For heavy soiling, difficult
stains, or scratches, blemishes, or other body damage, see the appropriate maintenance and service manual.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: Dispose of waste water properly.

• To avoid the risk of rollover when operating a vehicle equipped with mud tires on a paved
surface: reduce speed, use extreme caution, and drive slowly in turns.
• The diameter of all tires on the vehicle must be equal; otherwise the all-wheel system will not
operate as intended and could result in severe personal injury or death. Never install tires of
different diameters on the vehicle.
CAUTION
• Optional mud tires (off-road) are directional and must be installed according to the directional
arrow mark (arrow indicates forward rotation of the tire) on the side-wall of each tire, or the
tread performance will be severely compromised.
The tires are made specifically for the AWD vehicle; therefore, Husqvarna recommends that only tires pur-
chased from Husqvarna be used on your AWD vehicle.
SUBSEQUENT OWNER REGISTRATION
In the event a vehicle is bought as a used vehicle, we strongly urge the new owner to register the vehicle with
Husqvarna. This will enable us to contact you if the need arises. Please send your name, address, and serial
number of the vehicle to Husqvarna, 7349 Statesville Rd., Charlotte, NC 28269, Attention: Vehicle Registra-
tion.

TECHNICAL & CONSUMER INFORMATION (GASOLINE ENGINES)
Carburetor Modification for High Altitude Operation
At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel
consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting. Operation
at an altitude that differs from that at which this engine was certified, for extended periods of time, may
increase emissions.
High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate
your engine at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500 meters), have your servicing dealer perform this carburetor
modification. This engine, when operating at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high altitude
use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful life.
Even with carburetor notification, engine horsepower will decrease about 3.5% for each 1,000-foot (300-
meter) increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor mod-
ification is made.
NOTE: When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation, the air-fuel mixture will be too
lean for low altitude use. Operation at altitudes below 5,000 feet (1,500 meters) with a modified
carburetor may cause the engine to overheat and result in serious engine damage. For use at low
altitudes, have your servicing dealer return the carburetor to original factory specifications.
Oxygenated Fuels
Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol or an ether compound. These gasolines are col-
lectively referred to as oxygenated fuels.
To meet clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use oxygenated fuels to help
reduce emissions.
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating requirement.
Before using an oxygenated fuel, try to confirm the fuel’s contents. Some states/provinces require this infor-
mation to be posted on the pump.
The following are the EPA approved percentages of oxygenates:
ETHANOL:
(ethyl or grain alcohol) 10% by volume
You may use gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume. Gasoline containing etha-
nol may be marketed under the name “Gasohol”.
MTBE:
(methyl tertiary butyl ether) 15% by volume
You may use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by volume.
(methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume
METHANOL:
You may use gasoline containing up to 5% methanol by volume, as long as it also contains
cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel system. Gasoline containing more
than 5% methanol by volume may cause starting and/or performance problems. It may also
damage metal, rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel system.
If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try another service station, or switch to another brand of
gasoline.
Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more
than the percentages of oxygenates mentioned above are not covered under warranty.

Emission Control System Information
Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and hydrocarbons. Control of hydro-
carbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form photo-
chemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.
Honda utilizes lean carburetor settings and other systems to reduce the emissions of carbon monoxide,
oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons.
The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts
EPA and California regulations required all manufacturers to furnish written instructions describing the oper-
ation and maintenance of emission control systems.
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order to keep the emissions from your Honda
engine within the emissions standards.
Tampering and Altering
Tampering with or altering the emission control system may increase emissions beyond the legal limit. Among
those acts that constitute tampering are:
• Removal or alteration of any part of the intake, fuel or exhaust systems.
• Altering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting mechanism to cause the engine to oper-
ate outside its design parameters.
Problems That May Affect Emissions
If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your engine inspected and repaired by your servicing
dealer.
• Hard starting or stalling after starting.
• Rough idle.
• Misfiring or backfiring under load.
• After burning (backfiring).
• Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.
Replacement Parts
The emission control systems on your Honda engine were designed, built, and certified to conform with EPA
and California emission regulations. We recommend replacement parts be purchased from Husqvarna, Inc..
These original-design replacement parts are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts, so
you can be confident of their performance. The use of replacement parts that are not of the original design and
quality may impair the effectiveness or your emission control system.
A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that the part will not adversely affect emis-
sion performance. The manufacturer or rebuilder of the part must certify that use of the part will not result in
a failure of the engine to comply with emission regulations.
Maintenance
Follow the Periodic Service Schedule in the owner’s manual. Remember that this schedule is based on the
assumption that your vehicle will be used for its designed purpose. Sustained high-load or high-temperature
operation, or use in unusually wet or dusty conditions, will require more frequent service.
