Frequently Asked Questions - J-HANDLE HUSQVARNA

How to mount the J-handle on my Husqvarna brushcutter?
Remove the original handle, place the J-handle on the tube as shown in the instructions, mount the fastening elements and tighten lightly. Adjust to a comfortable position, then tighten the handle.
Which blades can I use with the J-handle?
You can use weed blades/knives with a 20 mm center hole and M10 threaded shaft: Grass 255-4, Grass 255-8, Multi 255-3, as well as Tricut plastic knives and cutting heads such as Trimmy, Superauto, etc.
How to sharpen the weed blade?
Use a single-cut flat file. File the cutting edges equally to maintain balance. Follow the sharpening instructions on the equipment packaging.
Can I mount a saw blade on a machine equipped with the J-handle?
No, it is strictly forbidden to mount a saw blade. Only use weed blades/knives or a plastic cutting head/knives.
How to transport the brushcutter with the J-handle?
Loosen the handle, turn it clockwise, fold it along the tube, then retighten the locking handle. Always use the transport guard with the cutting tool.
What safety checks to perform before starting?
Check for cracks on the blade, support flange, lock nut and blade guard. Ensure the lock nut has a locking torque of at least 1.5 Nm. Never use without guard.
How to replace the blade guard?
Remove the 4 screws and support plate to take off the old guard. Mount the new guard (ref. 503 74 40-01 or 503 74 50-04 depending on the tool) using the same screws and support plate.
What is the basic technique for brushing with the grass blade?
Always work at full throttle. Mow the grass with a side-to-side swinging motion, using the range between 8 and 12 o'clock. Tilt the blade slightly to the left to deposit grass in rows. Keep the glide cup on the ground.
How to clean the cutting equipment?
Stop the engine before any cleaning. Remove grass or branch debris stuck between the blade and blade guard. Use a brush or cloth. Never clean when the blade is rotating.
Where to find spare parts for the J-Handle kit?
Parts such as blades, guards and nuts are available at Husqvarna dealers. Consult the manual for exact references or contact after-sales service.

Cutting equipment

This section describes how through correct maintenance and through using the right type of cutting equipment you can:

  • Reduce the machine's tendency to kickback
  • Obtain maximum cutting capacity.
  • Increase the service life of the cutting equipment.

The three basic rules:

1) Only use the cutting and guard equipment we recommend! See chapter "Technical data".

2) Keep the blade's teeth well and correctly sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the recommended filing gauge. An incorrectly sharpened or damaged blade increases the risk of an accident.

3) Check the cutting equipment with regard to damage and crack formation. Damaged cutting equipment should always be replaced.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Cutting equipment - 1

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The section describes how through correct maintenance and through using the right type of cutting equipment you can reduce the machine's tendency to kickback, obtain maximum clearing capacity and increase the service life of the cutting equipment.

  • Only use the cutting and guard equipment we recommend! See chapter "Technical data".
  • Refer to the instructions for the cutting equipment for the correct winding of cord and for the selection of the right cord diameter.
  • Keep the blade's teeth well and correctly sharpened! Follow our recommendations. Also refer to the instructions on the blade packaging.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - IMPORTANT INFORMATION - 1
WARNING!

Incorrect cutting equipment or an incorrectly sharpened blade increases the risk of kickback.

Filing the grass blade

  • See the cutting equipment's packaging for correct filing instructions.
  • The blades are sharpened using a single cut flat file.
  • Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the balance of the blade.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Filing the grass blade - 1

Basic clearing techniques

• Always carry out clearing and trimming at full throttle.
- Always drop to idling speed after each working operation. Longer periods running at full throttle without loading the engine (that is without resistance, which the engine feels from the cutting equipment when trimming) can lead to serious engine damage.

Designations

  • Brush cutting is a general term for clearing grass. Grass blades are used for this purpose.
  • Grass trimming is a general term for light clearing, e.g. around edges or around trees. A trimmer head or plastic blade is used.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Designations - 3

WARNING!

Sometimes grass can collect in the spray guard and cutting head. Always stop the engine when cleaning.

Brush cutting using a grass blade

  • A blade is used for all types of high or thick grass.
  • The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging movement, where the movement from right-to-left is the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to-right is the return stroke. Let the blade work on the left-hand side (between 8 and 12 o'clock).

- If the blade is angled to the left when clearing the grass will collect in a line, which makes collection easier, e.g. when raking.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Brush cutting using a grass blade - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a mechanical device with a pinwheel and lever, no text or symbols present
  • Try to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the return stroke and stand firmly again.
  • Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground.
  • Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these instructions:

a) Always work at full throttle.
b) Avoid the previously cut material during the return stroke.

- Stop the engine, loosen the harness and place the machine on the ground before you start to collect the cut material.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Brush cutting using a grass blade - 2

WARNING!

Neither the user of the tool or anyone else may attempt to remove the cut material while the engine is running or with the blade rotating as this can result in serious injury.

Stop the engine and blade before you remove material that has wound around the blade as otherwise there is a risk of injury.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - WARNING! - 1

WARNING!

Warning for thrown objects. Always wear protective glasses. Never lean over the guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be thrown up into the eyes causing blindness or serious injury.

Keep unauthorised persons at a distance. Children, animals, onlookers and helpers should be kept outside the safety zone of 15 m. Stop the machine immediately if anyone approaches.

Assembling the J-handle

Assembly of the blade and trimmer head

It is extremely important that the disc drive's/support flange's guide engages correctly in the cutting equipment's centre hole when assembling the cutting equipment. Cutting equipment assembled incorrectly can result in serious and/or fatal personal injury.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Assembly of the blade and trimmer head - 1

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with two views (top and side), no text or symbols present.

HUSQVARNA J-HANDLE - Assembly of the blade and trimmer head - 2

WARNING!

Do not attach any blade to the unit without proper installation of all required parts. Failure to use the proper parts can cause the blade to fly off and seriously injure the operator and/or bystanders.

Under no circumstances may the cutting equipment be used without an approved guard fitted. See the chapter “Technical data”. If the wrong guard or a defective guard is fitted this can cause serious personal injury.

Assembling the blade guard and grass blade

  • The guard (A) is fitted using 4 screws (L) and the support plate (M) as set out in the diagram. NOTE! Use the recommended blade guard.
  • Fit the drive disc (B) on the output axle.
  • Turn the blade axle until one of the holes in the drive disc aligns with the hole in the gear housing.
  • Insert the locking pin (C) in the hole so that the axle is locked.
  • Place the blade (D), support cup (E) and support flange (F) on the output axle.
  • Fit the nut (G). The tightening torque of the nut is 35-50 Nm (3,5 - 5 kpm). Use the socket spanner in the tool kit. Hold the handle of the spanner as close to the blade guard as possible. The nut is tightened when the spanner is turned against the direction of rotation (left-hand thread).

Control before starting

For reasons of safety follow these recommendations!

  • Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
  • Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support flange if it is cracked.
  • Ensure the locking nut has not lost its captive force. The nut lock should have a locking force of at least 1.5 Nm. The tightening torque of the locking nut should be 35-50 Nm.
  • Check that the guard is not damaged or cracked. Replace the guard if it is exposed to impact or is cracked.
  • Check that the trimmer head and spray guard are not damaged or cracked. Replace the trimmer head or spray guard if they are exposed to impact or are cracked.
  • Never use the machine without a guard or spray guard nor with a defective guard.
