Introduction - Husqvarna 365 X-Torq Workshop Manual

General
This manual provides a detailed description of procedures
for trouble shooting, repair and testing of the chainsaw.
The safety precautions that should be taken during repair
work are also described.
Safety
Note!
The section dealing with safety should be read
and understood by all who carry out repair or
service work on the chainsaw.
Warning markings are shown both in this manual and on
the chainsaw itself. See page 5. If a warning mark on the
chainsaw has been damaged or is missing, it must be
replaced immediately in order to maximise safety when
the saw is in use.
Target Audience
This workshop manual is written for personnel assuming
that they have general knowledge of service and repair
of small engines.
The manual should be read and understood by all personnel
who will carry out service and repair work on the chainsaw.
The manual is also suitable for use in the training of new
employees.
Changes
As production continues, changes will be introduced
successively to the chainsaw. If at any time these
changes infl uence service and/or spares, special service
announcements will be sent out, which means that this
manual will cease to be current with time. In order to avoid
problems, the manual should always be read together
with all service announcements that apply to the specifi c
model of chainsaw.
Tools
For specifi c procedures special tools are required. In this
workshop manual, all the service tools required are listed.
Their use is described in the appropriate section.
Always use Husqvarna original:
• Spares
