DO:
• Mow across the face of slopes: never
up and down. Exercise extreme caution
when changing direction on slopes.
• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree
limbs, etc.
• Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
DO NOT:
• Do not trim near drop-offs, ditches or
embankments. The operator could lose
footing or balance.
• Do not trim excessively steep slopes.
• Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced
footing could cause slipping.

•

•
•

III. CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is
not alert to the presence of children. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the
mowing activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the trimming area
and under the watchful care of another
responsible adult.
• Be alert and turn machine off if children
enter the area.
• Before and while walking backwards,
look behind and down for small children.
• Never allow children to operate machine.
• Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects
that may obscure vision.

a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner.
Always place containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
Remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel it on the
ground. If this is not possible, then
refuel such equipment with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim
of the fuel tank or container opening at
all times until fueling is complete. Do
not use a nozzle lock-open device.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change
clothing immediately.
Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas
cap and tighten securely.

V. GENERAL SERVICE
• Never run machine inside a closed area.
• Never make adjustments or repairs with
the engine (motor) running. Disconnect the
spark plug wire, and keep the wire away
from the plug to prevent accidental starting.
• Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade
attachment bolts, tight and keep equipment in good condition.
• Never tamper with safety devices.
Check their proper operation regularly.
• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or
other debris build-up. Clean oil or fuel spillage. Allow machine to cool before storing.
• Stop and inspect the equipment if you
strike an object. Repair, if necessary,
before restarting.
• Never attempt to make wheel height
adjustments while the engine is running.
• Grass catcher components are subject to
wear, damage, and deterioration, which
could expose moving parts or allow objects
to be thrown. Frequently check components and replace with manufacturer’s
recommended parts, when necessary.
• Mower blades are sharp and can cut.
Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and
use extra caution when servicing them.
• Do not change the engine governor setting or overspeed the engine.
• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.

IV. SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE
Use extreme care in handling gasoline.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes
and other sources of ignition.
• Use only an approved container.
• Never remove gas cap or add fuel with
the engine running. Allow engine to
cool before refueling.
• Never refuel the machine indoors.
• Never store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark
or pilot light such as a water heater or
on other appliances.
• Never fill containers inside a vehicle, on

WARNING: This lawn mower is equipped with an internal combustion engine and
should not be used on or near any unimproved forest-covered, brush-covered or
grass-covered land unless the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark
arrester meeting applicable local or state laws (if any). If a spark arrester is used, it
should be maintained in effective working order by the operator.
In the state of California the above is required by law (Section 4442 of the California Public
Resources Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal
lands. A spark arrester for the muffler is available through your nearest Husqvarna or
other authorized service center (See the REPAIR PARTS section of this manual).

• Si es posible, guarde su unidad en un recinto
cerrado y cúbrala para protegerla contra el
polvo y la mugre.
• Cubra su unidad con un forro protector
adecuado que no retenga la humedad. No
use plástico. El plástico no puede respirar, lo
que permite la formación de condensación,
lo que producirá la oxidación de su unidad.
IMPORTANTE: Nunca cubra la segadora
mientras el motor y las areas de escape todavia
estan calientes.
PRECAUCIÓN: Nunca almacene la
segadora con gasolina en el estanque dentro
de un edificio en donde los gases pueden
alcanzar una llama expuesta o una chispa.
Permita que se enfríe el motor antes de
almacenarla en algún recinto cerrado.

OTROS
• No guarde la gasolina de una temporada a la
otra.
• Cambie el envase de la gasolina si se empieza a oxidar. La oxidación y/o la mugre en
su gasolina producirán problemas.

IMPORTANT:
• Check oil level before each use. Add oil
if needed. Fill to full line on dipstick.
• Change the oil after every 25 hours of
operation or each season. You may
need to change the oil more often
under dusty, dirty conditions. See “TO
CHANGE ENGINE OIL” in the Maintenance section of this manual.
ADD GASOLINE
• Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank filler neck.
Do not overfill. Use fresh, clean, regular
unleaded gasoline with a minimum of
87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in quantities that can be
used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.
CAUTION: Wipe off any spilled oil or
fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline
near an open flame.
CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids during
storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To
avoid engine problems, the fuel system
should be emptied before storage of 30
days or longer. Empty the gas tank, start
the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel
next season. See Storage Instructions for
additional information. Never use engine
or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank or permanent damage may occur.

TO STOP ENGINE

MULCHING MOWING TIPS

• To stop engine, release operator presence control bar.

IMPORTANT: For best performance,
keep mower housing free of built-up
grass and trash. See “CLEANING” in the
Maintenance section of this manual.
• The special mulching blade will recut
the grass clippings many times and
reduce them in size so that as they fall
onto the lawn they will disperse into
the grass and not be noticed. Also, the
mulched grass will biodegrade quickly to
provide nutrients for the lawn. Always
mulch with your highest engine (blade)
speed as this will provide the best recutting action of the blades.
• Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet.
Wet grass tends to form clumps and
interferes with the mulching action. The
best time to mow your lawn is the early
afternoon. At this time the grass has
dried, yet the newly cut area will not be
exposed to direct sunlight.
• For best results, adjust the lawn mower
cutting height so that the lawn mower
cuts off only the top one-third of the
grass blades. If the lawn is overgrown it
will be necessary to raise the height of cut
to reduce pushing effort and to keep from
overloading the engine and leaving clumps
of mulched grass. For extremely heavy
grass, reduce your width of cut by overlapping previously cut path and mow slowly.

TO START ENGINE
NOTE: Due to protective coatings on the
engine, a small amount of smoke may be
present during the initial use of the product
and should be considered normal.
NOTE: Your engine is equipped with an
automatic choke system. No priming or
choking is required before starting.
• To start engine, hold operator presence
control bar down to the handle and pull
starter handle quickly. Do not allow
starter rope to snap back.

MOWING TIPS
CAUTION: Do not use de-thatcher
blade attachments on your mower. Such
attachments are hazardous, will damage
your mower and could void your warranty.
• Under certain conditions, such as very
tall grass, it may be necessary to raise
the height of cut to reduce pushing effort
and to keep from overloading the engine
and leaving clumps of grass clippings.
It may also be necessary to reduce
ground speed and/or run the lawn
mower over the area a second time.
• For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the
width of cut by overlapping previously
cut path and mow slowly.
• For better grass bagging and most cutting conditions, the engine speed should
be set in the FAST position.
• Pores in cloth grass catchers can
become filled with dirt and dust with use
and catchers will collect less grass. To
prevent this, regularly hose catcher off
with water and let dry before using.
• Keep top of engine around starter clear
and clean of grass clippings and chaff.
This will help engine air flow and extend
engine life.

MAX 1/3

• Certain types of grass and grass
conditions may require that an area be
mulched a second time to completely
hide the clippings. When doing a second cut, mow across (perpendicular) to
the first cut path.
• Change your cutting pattern from week
to week. Mow north to south one week
then change to east to west the next
week. This will help prevent matting
and graining of the lawn.

MOTOR
SISTEMA DE COMBUSTIBLE
IMPORTANTE: Es importante evitar que
se formen depositos de coma en partes
fundamentales del sistemade combustible tales
como el carburador, el filtro del combustible,
la mangura del combustible o en el estanque
durante el almacenamiento. Los combustibles
mezclados con alcohol (conocido come
gasohol o que tienen etanol o metanol)
Pueden atraer humedad, lo que conduce a la
separacion y a la formación de acidos durante
el almacenamiento. La gasolina acida puede
danar el sistema de combustible de un motor
durante el perido de almacenamiento.
• Vaciar el depósito del carburante poniendo
en marcha el motor y dejándolo funcionar
hasta que el carburante termine y el
carburador esté vacío.
• Nunca use los productos para limpieza del
carburador o del motor en el estanque de
combustible pues se pueden producir daños
permanentes.
• Use combustible nuevo la próxima temporada.
AVISO: El estabilizador de combustible es una
alternativa aceptable para reducir a un mínimo
la formación de depósitos de goma en el combustible durante el período de almacenamiento.
Agregue estabilizador a la gasolina en el
estanque de combustible o en el envase para el
almacenamiento. Siempre siga la proporción de
mezcla que se encuentra en el envase del estabilizador. Haga funcionar el motor por lo menos
10 minutos después de agregar el estabilizador,
para permitir que este llegue al carburador. No
drene la gasolina del estanque de gasolina y el
carburador si se está usando estabilizador de
combustible.

MANGO
Puede doblar el mango de su segadora para el
almacenamiento.
1. Apriete los extremos inferiores del mango
inferior entre sí hasta que el mango inferior
quede separado del puntal del mango,

➀ Rear door
hinge

➀ Handle bracket mounting pins
➀ Spray lubricant
➁ See "ENGINE" in Maintenance section.

BEFORE EACH USE
• Check engine oil level.
• Check for loose fasteners.
LUBRICATION
Keep unit well lubricated
(See “LUBRICATION CHART”).

IMPORTANT: Do not oil or grease plastic
wheel bearings. Viscous lubricants will
attract dust and dirt that will shorten the life of
the self-lubricating bearings. If you feel they
must be lubricated, use only a dry, powdered
graphite type lubricant sparingly.

LAWN MOWER
Always observe safety rules when performing any maintenance.
TIRES
• Keep tires free of gasoline, oil, or insect
control chemicals which can harm rubber.
• Avoid stumps, stones, deep ruts, sharp
objects and other hazards that may
cause tire damage.
BLADE CARE
For best results, mower blade must be kept
sharp. Replace bent or damaged blades.
CAUTION: Use only a replacement
blade approved by the manufacturer of
your mower. Using a blade not approved
by the manufacturer of your mower is
hazardous, could damage your mower and
void your warranty.
TO REMOVE BLADE
1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug and place wire where it cannot
come in contact with plug.
2. Turn lawn mower on its side. Make
sure air filter and carburetor are up.
3. Use a wood block between blade and
mower housing to prevent blade from
turning when removing blade bolt.
NOTE: Protect your hands with gloves
and/or wrap blade with heavy cloth.
4. Remove blade bolt by turning counterclockwise.
5. Remove blade and attaching hardware
(bolt, lock washer and hardened washer).
TO REPLACE BLADE
1. Position blade on the blade adapter
aligning the two (2) holes in the blade
with the raised lugs on the adapter.
2. Be sure the trailing edge of blade (opposite sharp edge) is up toward the engine.
3. Install the blade bolt with the lock
washer and hardened washer into
blade adapter and crankshaft.
4. Use block of wood between blade and
lawn mower housing and tighten the
blade bolt, turning clockwise.
• The recommended tightening torque is
35-40 ft. lbs.

IMPORTANT: Blade bolt is heat treated.
If bolt needs replacing, replace only with
approved bolt shown in the Repair Parts
section of this manual.
TO SHARPEN BLADE
NOTE: We do not recommend sharpening the blade - but if you do, be sure
the blade is balanced. An unbalanced
blade will cause eventual damage to lawn
mower or engine.
• The blade can be sharpened with a file
or on a grinding wheel. Do not attempt
to sharpen while on the mower.
• To check blade balance, drive a nail into
a beam or wall. Leave about one inch of
the straight nail exposed. Place center
hole of blade over the head of the nail.
If blade is balanced, it should remain in
a horizontal position. If either end of the
blade moves downward, sharpen the
heavy end until the blade is balanced.
GRASS CATCHER
• The grass catcher may be hosed with
water, but must be dry when used.
• Check your grass catcher often for damage or deterioration. Through normal
use it will wear. If catcher needs replacing, replace only with approved replacement catcher shown in the Repair Parts
section of this manual. Give the lawn
mower model number when ordering.

ENGINE
LUBRICATION
Use only high quality detergent oil rated
with API service classification SJ–SL.
Select the oil's SAE viscosity grade according
to your expected operating temperature.

Change the oil after every 25 hours of
operation or at least once a year if the
lawn mower is not used for 25 hours in
one year.

PARA PARAR EL MOTOR

CONSEJOS PARA SEGAR Y ACOLCHAR

• Para parar el motor, suelte la barra de controles que exigen la presencia del operador.

IMPORTANTE: Para obtener el mejor
rendimiento mantenga la caja de la segadora
sin acumulacion de cesped y basura. Vea
“LIMPIEZA” en la seccion de Mantenimento de
este manual.
• La cuchilla acolchadora especial va a volver
a cortar los recortes de césped muchas
veces, y los reduce en tamaño, de modo que
si se caen en el césped se van a dispesar
entre éste y no se van a notar. También, el
césped acolchado se va a deshacer rápidamente entregando substancias nutritivas
para el césped. Siempre acolche con la
velocidad del motor (cuchilla) más alta, pues
así se obtendrá la mejor acción de recorte de
las cuchillas.
• Evite cortar el césped cuando esté mojado.
El césped mojado tiende a formar montones
e interfiere con la acción de acolchado.
La mejor hora para segar el césped es
temprano en la tarde. A esa hora éste se ha
secado y el área recién cortada no quedará
expuesta al sol directo.
• Para obtener los mejores resultados, ajuste
la altura del corte de la segadora de modo
que ésta corte solamente el tercio superior
de las hojas de césped. En el caso de que el
césped haya crecido demasiado, puede ser
necesario el elevar la altura del corte para
reducir el esfuerzo necesario para empujar la
segadora y para evitar sobrecargar el motor,
dejando montones de recortes de césped.
Para un césped muy pesado, reduzca el ancho del corte pasando por encima del lugar
anteriormente cortado y siegue lentamente.

PARA HACER ARRANCAR EL MOTOR
AVISO: Debido a las capas protectoras del motor, una cantidad pequeña de humo puede estar presente durante el uso inicial del producto
y se debe considerar normal.
AVISO: Su motor viene equipado con un
sistema de estrangulación automático. No
requiere ser cebado o obturado antes de
arrancar.
• Para hacer arrancar un motor, sujete la barra
de controles que exigen la presencia del
operador abajo en el mango y tire el mango
del arrancador rápidamente. No permita que
el cordón arrancador se devuelva abruptamente.

CONSEJOS PARA SEGAR
PRECAUCIÓN: No utilizar dispositivos antipaja de la hoja en la segadora ya que estos
accesorios son peligrosos, pueden dañar su
segadora y anular su garantía.
• Bajo ciertas condiciones, tal como césped
muy alto, puede ser necesario el elevar
la altura del corte para reducir el esfuerzo
necesario para empujar la segadora y para
evitar sobrecargar el motor, dejando montones de recortes de césped. Puede que sea
necesario reducir la velocidad del recorrido
y/o haga funcionar la segadora sobre el área
por segunda vez.
• Para un corte muy pesado, reduzca el ancho
del corte pasando parcialmente por encima
del lugar anteriormente cortado y siegue
lentamente.
• Para un mejor ensacado del césped y para la
mayoría de las condiciones de corte, la velocidad del motor debe ajustarse a la posición
de RÁPIDO.
• Los poros en los recogedores de césped de
tela pueden llenarse con mugre y polvo con
el uso y los recogedores recaudarán menos
césped. Para evitar éste, rocíe el recogedor
con la manguera de agua regularmente y
déjelo secarse antes de usarlo.
• Mantenga la parte superior del motor, alrededor del arrancador, despejada y sin recortes
de césped y paja. Esto ayudará el flujo del
aire del motor y extenderá su duración.

ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent
gum deposits from forming in essential
fuel system parts such as carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage.
Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or
using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damage the fuel system of an
engine while in storage.
• Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and letting it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty.
• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.
• Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of
fuel gum deposits during storage. Add
stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow the mix ratio
found on stabilizer container. Run engine
at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer
to allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do not empty the gas tank and
carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

SQUEEZE
TO FOLD

• Ciertos tipos de césped y sus condiciones
pueden exigir que un área tenga que ser
acolchada por segunda vez para esconder
completamente los recortes. Cuando se
haga el segundo corte, siegue atravesado
(en forma perpendicular) a la pasada del
primer corte.
• Cambie su patrón de corte de semana a
semana. Siegue de norte a sur una semana
y luego cambie de este a oeste la próxima
semana. Esto evitará que el césped se
enrede y cambie de dirección.
