Warranty Information
All Husqvarna devices have a 24-month factory warranty for material and manufacturing defects.
Basic Operation
1. Preparation: Ensure the machine is on a firm surface. Before starting, check that the inlet valve is open and the clutch is disengaged. Read the daily maintenance service table.
2. Starting the Engine: Use the key switch to start the engine. Allow it to warm up and run at idle.
3. Engaging the Clutch: Secure the clutch switch in the off position. Start the motor and run on the lowest RPM. Then, engage the clutch using the second switch. Never engage the clutch while the engine is running at high RPMs.
4. Operation: Dust-laden air is sucked through the inlet hose, separated by a cyclone, and then filtered. The machine cleans the filter using a reverse air pulse.
5. Filter Cleaning: Seal the inlet with the valve, build vacuum for a few seconds, then push down on the top handle and release slowly. Repeat 5 times. If suction remains poor, replace the filter.
6. Bag Replacement: This should be done after cleaning the filter. Tie up the plastic bag securely after removal. Only use original parts.
