To do a run-in
• During the first 10 hours of operation, do not apply
full throttle without load for extended periods.
To use the correct chain oil
WARNING: Do not use waste oil,
which can cause injury to you and the
environment. Waste oil also causes damage
to the oil pump, the guide bar and the saw
chain.
WARNING: The saw chain can break
if the lubrication of the cutting equipment is
not sufficient. Risk of serious injury or death
to the operator.
WARNING: This product has a function
that lets the fuel run out before the chain
oil. Use the correct chain oil for this function
to operate correctly. Speak to your servicing
dealer when you select your chain oil.
• Use Husqvarna chain oil for maximum saw chain life
and to prevent negative effects on the environment.
If Husqvarna chain oil is not available, we
recommend you to use a standard chain oil.
• Use a chain oil with good adherence to the saw
chain.
• Use a chain oil with correct viscosity range that
agrees with the air temperature.
CAUTION:
If the oil is too thin, it
runs out before the fuel. In temperatures
below 0°C/32°F some chain oils become
too thick, which can cause damage to
the oil pump components.
• Use the recommended cutting equipment. Refer to
Accessories on page 35
.
To fill the chain oil tank
• Remove the cap to the chain oil tank.
• Fill the chain oil tank with chain oil.
• Attach the cap carefully.

Kickback information
WARNING: A kickback can cause
serious injury or death to the operator or
others. To decrease the risk you must know
the causes of kickback and how to prevent
them.
A kickback occurs when the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object. A kickback can occur suddenly
and with large force, which throws the product in the
direction of the operator.
Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the guide
bar. Usually, the product is thrown against the operator
but can also move in a different direction. It is how you
use the product when the kickback occurs that causes
the direction of the movement.
A smaller bar tip radius decreases the force of the
kickback.
Use a low kickback saw chain to decrease the effects of
kickback. Do not let the kickback zone touch an object.
WARNING:
No saw chain fully
prevents kickback. Always obey the
instructions.
Common questions about kickback
• Will the hand always engage the chain brake during
a kickback?
No. It is necessary to use some force to push the
front hand guard forward. If you do not use the force
necessary, the chain brake will not be engaged. You
must also hold the handles of the product stable with
two hands during work. If a kickback occurs, it is
possible that the chain brake does not stop the saw
