 – English

NOTE!

The edger is 

fi

 tted with two-stroke engines and must always 

be run on a mixture of gasoline and two-stroke oil. To ensure 
the correct mixture proportions it is important to measure the 
quantity of oil accurately. When mixing small amounts of fuel 
small discrepancies in the amount of oil has a great bearing on 
the proportions of the fuel mixture. 

Gasoline

NOTE!

Always use high grade 
unleaded oil mixed gasoline 
(minimum 87 RON). Leaded 
fuel will destroy the catalytic 
converter and it will no longer 
serve its purpose.

• This engine is certi

fi

 ed to 

operate on unleaded gaso-
line. 

• The lowest recommended 

octane rating is 87. If you run 
the engine on  lower octane 
rating than 87 so-called 
“knocking“ can occur. This 
leads to an increased engine 
temperature, which can result 
in a serious engine break-
down.

• When working at continuous 

high revs a higher octane rat-
ing is recommended.

Two-stroke oil

• For the best results use 

HUSQVARNA two-stroke 
oil, which has been specially 
developed for two-stroke 
engines.

  Mixing ratio 1:50 (2%).

• Never use two-stroke oil 

intended for water cooled 
outboard motors, so-called 
outboard motor oil.

• Never use oil intended of 

four-stroke engines.

FUEL HANDLING

Fuel mixture

WARNING!
Always provide good ventilation when han-
dling fuel.

!

WARNING! 
The catalytic converter muf

fl

 er gets very hot 

during and after use. This also applies during 
idling. Be aware of the 

fi

 re hazard, especially 

when handling the saw near 

fl

 ammable sub-

stances or vapours.

!

Fuelling

WARNING!
The following precautions reduce the risk of 

fi

 re:

Do not smoke or place any sources of heat in 
the vicinity of the fuel. Never refuel when the 
engine is running. Always stop the engine and 
let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling. 
Open the fuel cap slowly when fuelling so that 
any over pressure is released slowly. Tighten 
the fuel cap carefully after refuelling. Always 
move the machine from the fuelling place 
before starting.

!

• Clean around the fuel 

cap. Contamination in the 
tank can disrupt opera-
tions.

• Ensure that the fuel is 

well mixed by shaking the 
container before 

fi

 lling the 

tank.

Mixture

• Always mix gasoline and oil in a clean container intended for 

fuel.

• Always start by 

fi

 lling half the quantity of gasoline required. 

Then add the entire oil quantity. Mix (shake) the fuel mixture. 
Fill the remaining quantity of gasoline.

• Mix (shake) the fuel mixture carefully before 

fi

 lling in the 

machine

ʻ

s fuel tank.
