INTRODUCTION
Congratulations
Thank you for purchasing a Husqvarna ride-on 
mower. This machine is built for superior efficiency 
to rapidly mow primarily large areas. A control panel 
easily accessible to the operator and a hydrostatic 
transmission regulated by steering controls both 
contribute to the machine’s performance.
This manual is a valuable document. Read the 
contents carefully before using or servicing the 
machine. The following of instructions (use, service, 
maintenance) by all who operate this machine is 
important for the safety of the operator and others. 
It can also considerably increase the life span of the 
machine and increase its resale value.
If you sell your machine, be sure to give the operator’s 
manual to the new owner.
The final chapter of this operator’s manual provides a 
Service Journal. Ensure that service and repair work 
are documented. A well-kept service journal reduces 
service costs for the maintenance and affects the 
machine’s resale value. Please contact your dealer for 
more information. Take the operator’s manual along 
when the machine is taken to your dealer for service.
