Let an approved Husqvarna service agent do
servicing on the product regularly.

Assembly
•
Lower quality blades often have inferior cutting
capacity and a shorter service life, which results in a
higher cost in relation to the quantity of material that
is cut.
•
Make sure that the right bushing is used for the
cutting blade to be fitted on the product. Refer to
Checking the arbor bushing on page 15 .
•
Test the integrity of each new cutting blade by
running it at full throttle for about 1 minute.
Correct cutting blades
•
Never use a cutting blade for any other materials
than what it was intended to cut.
•
Use only a diamond blade made for dry cutting.
•
Never use toothed blades such as wood cutting
blades, circular toothed blades, carbide tipped
blades, etc. The risk of kickback is significantly
increased and tips can be torn off and thrown at high
speed. Carelessness can result in serious personal
injury or even death.
•
Do not use a diamond blade with a lower speed
rating than that of the power cutter. Use only
diamond blades that are in compliance with national
or regional standards, for example EN13236 or ANSI
B7.1 .
•
The cutting blade must be approved for the same or
higher speed rating than that of the product. The
speed rating is specified on the blade guard.
•
Many cutting blades that can be attached to this
product are made for stationary saws. The speed
rating of those cutting blades is too low for this
product.
•
Select a cutting blade which center hole dimension is
correct with the bushing installed on the machine.
Blade vibration
•
The blade can become out-of-round and vibrate if an
excessive feed pressure is used.
