Frequently Asked Questions Who is the Husqvarna 122HD60 hedge trimmer best suited for? The 122HD60 is primarily designed for domestic users and homeowners. Its lightweight design, low-noise engine, and user-friendly features like Smart Start® make it ideal for maintaining typical garden hedges without the high power and weight of a professional machine. What makes the 122HD60 easy to start? Husqvarna’s Smart Start® technology is the key feature. The engine and starter are engineered to require minimum effort to pull the cord. This is supported by an air purge button that primes the carburettor and an auto-return stop switch that ensures the machine is always in the ‘ON’ position, preventing failed starts due to the switch being off. How does the LowVib® system help during use? The LowVib® system uses effective anti-vibration dampeners positioned between the engine and the handles. These dampeners absorb the majority of the engine’s vibrations, which significantly reduces the amount of vibration transferred to the user’s hands and arms. This leads to less fatigue and greater comfort, especially during extended periods of work. What fuel and oil should be used with the Husqvarna 122HD60? The Husqvarna 122HD60 has a 2-stroke engine. It requires a mixture of unleaded petrol and high-quality 2-stroke oil at a ratio of 50:1. For best performance and engine longevity, it is highly recommended to use Husqvarna’s own LS or XP® 2-stroke oil. Using pre-mixed fuel like Husqvarna XP® Power 2 is also an excellent option for convenience and optimal engine health. User Manuals / Downloads View Husqvarna Brochure
