Safety devices on the product
WARNING:
instructions that follow before you use the
product.
• Do not use a product with safety devices that are
damaged or do not operate correctly.
• Do a check of the safety devices regularly. If the
safety devices are damaged or do not operate
correctly, speak to your Husqvarna service agent.
• Do not make modifications to safety devices.
To do a check of the cutting cover
The cutting cover decreases vibrations in the product
and decreases the risk of injury from the blade.
• Examine the cutting cover to make sure that there
are no damages such as cracks.
Motor brake handle
The motor brake handle stops the motor. When the
motor brake handle is released, the motor stops.
To do a check of the motor brake, start the motor
and then release the motor brake handle. If the motor
does not stop in 3 seconds, let an approved Husqvarna
service agent adjust the motor brake.

Safety key (models LC 141iV and LC 141i)
The safety key is below the battery lid. The safety key
connects the battery that supplies the motor with power.
• Start and stop the motor to do a check of the safety
key.
• If the safety key functions correctly, the motor only
starts when the key is in position 1.
(Fig. 27)
To examine the start inhibitor
Do a check of the start inhibitor to make sure that it
prevents operation of the motor.
1. Push the motor brake handle in the direction of the
handlebar. The start inhibitor stops the movement.
2. Push the start inhibitor out. (Fig. 28)
3. Release the start inhibitor and make sure that it goes
back to its initial position.
To use the power cord holder (model LC 141C)
The power cord holder decreases the strain on the
power socket and the power cord. The power cord
holder also decreases the risk that you fall.
1. Bend the power cord to a small loop.
2. Put the loop in to the hole in the power cord holder.
