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 of beeing, 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 building and construction 
industry. Husqvarna

 

 

s aim is also to be in the front edge 

according to ergonomics, usability, security and 
environmental protection. That is the reason why we have 
developed many different features to provide 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 
operator

 

 

s manual as a valuable document. By following 

its

 

′ content (using, service, maintenance etc) the life span 

and the second-hand value of the machine can be 
extended. If you will sell this machine, make sure that the 
buyer will get the operator
