Husqvarna 326E X-series Operator's Manual page 18

• Always hold the machine with both hands. Hold the
machine on the right side of your body.
• Use your right hand to control the throttle setting.
• Make sure that your hands and feet do not come near
the cutting attachment when the engine is running.
• When the engine is switched off, keep your hands and
feet away from the cutting attachment until it has
stopped completely.
• Always carry out edging at full throttle.
• Always keep the blade close to the ground.
• Always slow the engine to idle speed after each
working operation. Long periods at full throttle without
any load on the engine (i.e. without the resistance that
the cutting attachment exerts on the engine when you
are using the machine) can lead to serious engine
damage.
• Be especially careful when pulling the edger towards
you during work.
• If any foreign object is hit or if vibrations occur stop the
machine immediately. Disconnect the HT lead from
the spark plug. Check that the machine is not
damaged. Repair any damage.
WARNING! Sometimes grass or stones

Always wear approved eye protection.
Never lean over the cutting attachment
guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be
thrown up into the eyes causing
blindness or serious injury.
