Maintenance and checks of the safety devices on
the product on page 35 .

Husqvarna servicing dealer.
Functions of the user interface
The user interface includes the start/stop button, the
SavE button, the battery status and the warning
indicator. The warning indicator flashes if the chain
brake is engaged or if there is a risk of overload.
The overload protection temporarily stops the product
and you cannot use the product until the temperature
decreases. If the warning indicator shows a solid light,
speak to your servicing dealer.
(Fig. 34)
For more information about the user interface, refer to
Product overview on page 20 .
The automatic stop function
The product has an automatic stop function that stops
the product if you do not use it for 3 minutes.
Chain brake and front hand guard
Your product has a chain brake that stops the saw chain
if you get a kickback. The chain brake decreases the
risk of accidents but only you can prevent them.
(Fig. 35)
WARNING:
where there is a risk of kickback. Be careful
when you use your product and make sure
that the kickback zone of the guide bar does
not touch an object.
(Fig. 36)
The chain brake engages (A) manually by your left hand
or automatically by the inertia release mechanism. Push
the front hand guard (B) forward to engage the chain
brake manually. This movement starts a spring-loaded
mechanism that stops the drive sprocket.
(Fig. 37)
How the chain brake is engaged is in relation to the
force of the kickback and position of the product. If
you get an intense kickback while the kickback zone is
farthest away from you, the chain brake engages by the
inertia release. If the kickback is small or the kickback
zone is nearer you, the chain brake engages manually
by your left hand.
(Fig. 38)
Use the chain brake as a parking brake when you
start the product and when you move short distances.
This decreases the risk that you or a person near you
touches the saw chain.
(Fig. 39)

Do not engage in situations
Pull the front hand guard rearward to disengage the
chain brake.
(Fig. 40)
A kickback can be very sudden and intense. Most
kickbacks are small and do not always engage the chain
brake. If a kickback occurs when you use the product,
hold tightly around the handles and do not let go.
(Fig. 41)
The front hand guard also decreases the risk to touch
the saw chain if your hand lets go of the front handle.
(Fig. 42)
In the felling position you cannot engage the chain brake
manually. The chain brake can in this position only be
engaged by the inertia release mechanism.
(Fig. 43)
Power trigger lockout
The power trigger lockout prevents accidental operation
of the power trigger. If you push the power trigger
lockout forward (A) and then push the power trigger
lockout against the handle (B), it releases the power
trigger (C). If you release the handle, the power trigger
and the power trigger lockout move back to their initial
positions.
(Fig. 44)
Chain catcher
The chain catcher catches the saw chain if it breaks or
comes loose. If you have the correct chain tension, the
risk decreases. You also decrease the risk if you do the
correct maintenance on the guide bar and saw chain.
See Assembly on page 28 and Maintenance on page
34 for instructions.
(Fig. 45)
Right hand guard
The right hand guard works as a protection for your
hand if the saw chain breaks or comes loose. It also
prevents interference from branches and twigs when
you use the product.
(Fig. 46)
