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 rst  
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 satised 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.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
If operating a power tool in a damp location is  
General power tool safety  
warnings  
unaviodable, use a residual current device (RCD)  
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of  
electric shock.  
Please read the operator’s manual carefully and make  
sure you understand the instructions before using the  
machine.  
Personal safety  
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use  
common sense when operating a power tool. Do  
not use a power tool while you are tired or under  
the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A  
moment of inattention while operating power tools  
may result in serious personal injury.  
The machine is only designed for cutting branches and  
twigs.  
Always remove the battery to prevent the machine being  
started by accident.  
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and  
all instructions. Failure to follow the  
warnings and instructions may result in  
electric shock, re and/or serious injury.  
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear  
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust  
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing  
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce  
personal injuries.  
!
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch  
is in the OFF-position before connecting to a  
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or  
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your  
nger on the switch or energising power tools that  
have the switch on invites accidents.  
IMPORTANT!  
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.  
The term ”power tool” in the warnings refers to your  
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated  
(cordless) power tool.  
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before  
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left  
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result  
in personal injury.  
Work area safety  
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark  
areas invite accidents.  
Do not operate power tools in explosive  
atmospheres, such as in the presence of  
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools  
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.  
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and  
balance at all times. This enables better control of  
the power tool in unexpected situations.  
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or  
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves  
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or  
long hair can be caught in moving parts.  
Keep children and bystanders away while  
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you  
to lose control.  
If devices are provided for the connection of dust  
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these  
are connected and properly used. Use of dust  
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.  
Electrical safety  
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never  
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any  
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power  
tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will  
reduce the risk of electric shock.  
The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool  
can differ from the declared total value depending on the  
ways in which the tool is used. Operators should identify  
safety measures to protect themselves that are based on  
an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use  
(taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as  
the times when the tool is switched off and when it is  
running idle in addition to the trigger).  
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded  
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and  
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric  
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.  
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase  
the risk of electric shock.  
Power tool use and care  
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power  
tool for your application. The correct power tool will  
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was  
designed.  
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for  
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.  
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or  
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase  
the risk of electric shock.  
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not  
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be  
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be  
repaired.  
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an  
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a  
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of  
electric shock.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or  
Hedge trimmer safety warnings -  
Personal safety  
the battery pack from the power tool before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories,  
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety  
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool  
accidentally.  
Use both hands when operating the hedgetrimmer.  
Using one hand could cause loss of control and result  
in serious personal injury.  
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children  
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the  
power tool or these instructions to operate the  
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands  
of untrained users.  
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter  
blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material  
to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the  
switch is off when clearing jammed material.  
Blades coast after turn off. A moment of inattention  
while operating the hedge trimmer may result in  
serious personal injury.  
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or  
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and  
any other condition that may affect the power  
tool´s operation. If damaged, have the power tool  
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by  
poorly maintained power tools.  
Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the  
cutter blade stopped. Proper handling of the hedge  
trimmer will reduce possible personal injury from the  
cutter blades.  
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly  
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are  
less likely to bind and are easier to control.  
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surface  
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden  
wiring. Cutter blades contacting a ”live” wire may  
make exposed metal parts of the power tool ” live” and  
could give the operator an electric shock.  
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.  
in accordance with these instructions, taking into  
account the working conditions and the work to  
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations  
different from those intended could result in a  
hazardous situation.  
DANGER -Keep hands away from blade. Contact  
with blade will result in serious personal injury.  
IMPORTANT!  
Always remove the battery before any maintenance on  
the machine.  
Battery tool use and care
