Engine Speed - Husqvarna 5521P Manual De Operario

The operation of any lawn mower can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes,
which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields
while operating your lawn mower or performing any adjustments or repairs. We
recommend standard safety glasses or a wide vision safety mask over spectacles.
