Safety
Safety definitions
The definitions below give the level of severity for each
signal word.
•
Electrical safety
•
WARNING: Injury to persons.
•
CAUTION: Damage to the product.
Note: This information makes the product easier to use.
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
•
•
•
Note: Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or batteryoperated (cordless) power tool.
•
Work area safety
•
•
4
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the
risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
•
Stay alert, monitor what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the OFF-position before connecting to a power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
The vibration emission during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared total value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
Operators should identify safety measures to protect
themselves that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking
account of all parts of the operating cycle such as
the times when the tool is switched off and when it is
running idle in addition to the trigger).

•
•
•
•
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritations or burns.

other condition that may affect the power tool´s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
Chain saw safety warnings
•
•
•
•
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when the chain saw is operating. Before you start
the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of inattention while
operating chain saws may cause entanglement of
you clothing or body with the saw chain.
Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on
the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand
configuration increases the risk of personal injury
and should never be done.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surface
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Saw chain contacting a ”live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool ” live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further
protective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet

is recommended. Adequate protective clothing will
reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
Always keep proper footing and operate the chain
saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as
ladders may cause a loss of balance or control of the
chain saw.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for
spring back. When the tension in the wood fibres is
released the spring loaded limb may strike the
operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped forward toward you or pull you
off balance.
Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the
chain saw switched off and away from your body.
When transporting or storing the chain saw always fit
the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain
saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact
with the moving saw chain.
Follow instruction for lubricating, chain tensioning
and changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated saw chain may either brake or increase
the chance of kickback.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes
not intended. For example: do not use chain saw for
cutting plastic, masonry or nonwood building
materials. Use of the chain saw for operations
different than intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
We strongly recommend that first time users practice
sawing logs on a saw horse or cradle.

General safety instructions
WARNING: Read the warning instructions
that follow before you use the product.
•

•
•
Causes and operator prevention of kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide
bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some
cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching
the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push
the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either
of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not
rely exclusively upon the safety devises built into your
saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps
to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is a result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as given below:
•
6
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles, with both hands on
the saw and position your body and arm to allow you
to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chain saw in
unexpected situations.
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by
the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and
chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.

The warning indicator flashes if the chain brake is
engaged or if there is a risk of overload. The overload
protection temporarily stops the product and you can not
use the product until the temperature restores. If the
indicator shows a solid light, turn to your servicing
dealer.
The automatic stop function
The product has an automatic stop function that stops
the product if you do not use it for one minute.
manually. This movement starts a spring-loaded
mechanism that stops the drive sprocket.
How the chain brake is engaged depends on the force of
the kickback. It also depends on the position of the
product when the kickback zone hits an object. If you get
a intense kickback while the kickback zone is farthest
away from you the chain brake engages by the inertia
release. If the kickback is small or the kickback zone is
nearer you the chain brake engages manually by your
left hand.
Chain brake and front hand guard
Your product has a chain brake that stops the saw chain
if you get a kickback. The chain brake decreases the
risk of accidents, but only you can prevent them.
WARNING: Do not engage in situations
where there is a risk of kickback. Be careful
when you use your product and make sure
that the kickback zone of the guide bar does
not touch an object.
Use the chain brake as a parking brake when you start
the product and when you move short distances. This
decreases the risk that you or a person near you get hit
by the saw chain.
The chain brake engages manually by your left hand or
automatically by the inertia release mechanism. Push
the front hand guard forward to engage the chain brake

A kickback can be very sudden and intense. Most
kickbacks are small and do not always engage the chain
brake. If a kickback occur when you use the product,
hold tight around the handles and do not let go.
Chain catcher
The chain catcher catches the saw chain if it breaks or
comes loose. If you have the correct chain tension, the
risk decreases. You also decrease the risk if you do the
correct maintenance on the guide bar and saw chain.
See Assembly on page 12 and Maintenance on page
19 for instructions.
The front hand guard also decreases the risk to hit the
saw chain if your hand lets go of the front handle.

Keep the correct depth gauge setting! Follow our
instructions and use the recommended depth gauge
clearance. Too large a clearance increases the risk
of kickback.
•
Make sure that the saw chain has the correct
tension! If the saw chain is not tight against the guide
bar, the risk for it to come loose increases. This
leads to increased wear on the guide bar, saw chain
and drive sprocket.
•
Do maintenance on the cutting equipment regularly
and keep it correctly lubricated. The risk of wear on
the guide bar, saw chain and drive sprocket
increases if the saw chain is not correctly lubricated.

The oil tank lasts approximately three battery
charges. This applies only if you use the correct
chain oil. If the chain oil is too thin, it will not last that
long.
Chain oil must show good adherence to the saw
chain and also keep its flow quality during warm
summer and cold winter weather.
Use an oil of the right grade (suitable viscosity
range) to agree with the air temperature. In
temperatures below 0°C (32°F) some oils become
too thick. This can cause the oil pump to overload
and result in damage to the oil pump components.
Use the recommended cutting equipment. A guide
bar that is too long will use more chain oil.
Turn to your servicing dealer when you select a
chain oil.

WARNING: Do not use waste oil! Waste oil
is dangerous to you and the environment.
Waste oil also causes damage to the oil
pump, the guide bar and the saw chain.
WARNING: If the lubrication of the cutting
equipment is not sufficient, it can cause the
saw chain to break. This can cause serious
injury or death to the operator.
3. Make sure that the green charging light on the
battery charger comes on. That means that the
battery is connected correctly to the battery charger.
CAUTION: If you use vegetable based chain
oil, clean the groove in the guide bar and
saw chain before long-term storage.
Otherwise there is a risk of the saw chain
oxidizing, which causes the saw chain to
become stiff and that the bar tip sprocket
gets clogged.

vision of the product. This is to prevent
accidental start.
General information about working
technique
Below we give you some general information about how
to use this product.
WARNING: The information related to
working technique in this operator's manual
is not considered correct training to operate
this tree-service product. This product must
be used by tree-service operators with
special training only! Use without the correct
training can result in serious injuries. Do not
try any task that you do not feel sure of!
•
To cut on the pull stroke is when you cut with the
bottom of the guide bar. The saw chain pulls through
the tree when you cut. In this position you have
better control of the product and the position of the
kickback zone.
•
•
Use full power when you cut.
Let go of the power trigger after each cut.
CAUTION: Motor damage can occur if
you run the motor for too long at full
power and without load. One example is
if you cut without resistance from the
saw chain.
What is kickback?
WARNING: If a kickback occurs when the
saw chain rotates, it can cause serious
injuries or death to the operator. It is vital
that you understand the causes of kickback
and that you can prevent them with correct
working technique. If you are prepared you
decrease the risk.
A kickback occur when the kickback zone touches an
object with a rotating saw chain. A kickback can occur
suddenly and with large force, which throws the product,
16
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
guide bar and saw chain against the operator. Do not let
the kickback zone touch an object.
•
in which your hand can not touch the front hand
guard to engage the chain brake. An example of this
is in the felling position.
Will the inertia release mechanism always engage
the chain brake during kickback?
No. First, the chain brake must work correctly. See
Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the guide
bar. Usually, the product, guide bar and saw chain are
thrown against the operator but can also move in a
different direction. It is how you use the product when
the kickback occurs that causes the direction of
movement.
•
Maintenance and checks of the safety devices on
the product on page 19 for instructions about how
to do a check of the chain brake. We recommend
you to do this each time before you use the product.
Second, the kickback must be intense to engage the
chain brake. If the chain brake is too sensitive it will
be engaged all the time.
Will the chain brake always protect me from injury
during a kickback?
No. The chain brake must work correctly in order to
give the correct protection. The chain brake must
also be engaged during a kickback to stop the saw
chain. If you are near the guide bar, the chain brake
may not have time to stop the saw chain before it
hits you.
WARNING: Only you and the correct
working technique can prevent kickbacks.
To prepare the product for operation in
the tree
1. The ground worker must do a check of, fuel, start
and warm up the product.
The smaller the bar tip radius the lower the risk of
kickback.
A saw chain is made up of a number of links, which are
available as standard and low kickback. You can
decrease the effects of kickback by using the correct
cutting equipment with kickback reduction.
2. Engage the chain brake.
3. Secure the product during tree maintenance work
above ground level. Fit the product with a suitable
strop as an attachment to the operator's harness.
a) Attach one end of the strop around the rope
eyelet.
WARNING: No saw chain fully prevents the
dangerous situations that can occur during a
kickback.
Common questions about kickback
•
Will the hand always engage the chain brake during
a kickback?
No. It is necessary to use some force to push the
front hand guard forward. If you do not use the force
necessary, the chain brake may not be engaged.
This can occur if your hand only lightly touches the
front hand guard. You must also hold the handles of
the product stable with two hands during work. If a
kickback occurs, your hand may not let go of the
front handle. Then it will not engage the chain brake,
or the chain brake will only engage after the product
has moved around a large distance. If this situation
occurs, the chain brake may not stop the saw chain
before it touches you. There are also some positions
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
Note: If the operator loses control of the product,
the strop will prevent the product from falling to
the ground. Attach the belt eyelet to the hook on
the operator's harness as a primary safety
procedure. If you use the strop as a primary
safety procedure, lower the product fully down
the safety rope. Do not let go of the product from
height.

General information about how to sharpen the
cutting teeth
Do not use a blunt saw chain. If the saw chain is blunt,
you must apply more pressure to push the guide bar
through the wood. If the saw chain is very blunt, there
will be no wood chips but sawdust.
A sharp saw chain eats through the wood and the wood
chips becomes long and thick.
It is not easy to sharpen a saw chain correctly without
the correct equipment. We recommend that you use
Husqvarna file gauge. This will help you to keep
maximum cutting performance and the kickback risk at a
minimum.
The cutting tooth (A) and the depth gauge (B) together
makes the cutting part of the saw chain, the cutter. The
difference in height between the two gives the cutting
depth (depth gauge setting).
WARNING: The risk of kickback increases a
lot if you do not follow the sharpening
instructions.
Note: See Accessories on page 29 for information
about sharpening of the saw chain.

B
To sharpen the cutting teeth
When you sharpen a cutting tooth, think about the
following:
•
1. Use a round file and a file gauge to sharpen the
cutting teeth.
Filing angle.
Note: See Accessories on page 29 for information
about which file and gauge that Husqvarna
recommends for your saw chain.
22
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
2. Make sure that the saw chain has the correct
tension. A saw chain without the correct tension
moves from side to side. This does not make it easy
to sharpen the saw chain. See To tighten the saw
chain on page 23 for instructions.
WARNING: The risk of kickback increases if
the depth gauge setting is too large!
To adjust the depth gauge setting
Before you adjust the depth gauge setting or sharpen
the cutting teeth, See To sharpen the cutting teeth on
page 22, for instructions. We recommend you to adjust
the depth gauge setting after each third operation that
you sharpen the cutting teeth.
3. Move the file from the inner side of the cutting teeth
and out. Decrease the pressure on the pull stroke.
Note: This recommendation applies only if the length of
the cutting teeth does not decrease too much.
We recommend that you use our depth gauge tool to
receive the correct depth gauge setting and bevel for the
depth gauge.
4. Remove filing material on all teeth on one side first.
5. Turn the product around and remove filing material
on the other side.
6. Make sure that the all cutting teeth become the
same length when you remove filing material.
7. The saw chain is worn out when the cutting teeth is
decreased to 4 mm (0.16"). Replace the saw chain.
1. Use a flat file and a depth gauge tool to adjust the
depth gauge setting. Only use Husqvarna depth
gauge tool to receive the correct depth gauge setting
and bevel for the depth gauge.
2. Put the depth gauge tool on the saw chain.
Note: See the package of the depth gauge tool for
more information about how to use the tool.
3. Use the flat file to remove the part of the depth
gauge that extends through the depth gauge tool.
General information about how to adjust the
depth gauge setting
The depth gauge setting (C) decreases when you
sharpen the cutting tooth (A). To keep maximum cutting
performance you must remove filing material from the
depth gauge (B) to receive the recommended depth
gauge setting. See Accessories on page 29 for
instructions about how to receive the correct depth
gauge setting for your saw chain.

Note: The depth gauge setting is correct when you
do not feel resistance as you move the file along the
depth gauge tool.
To tighten the saw chain
WARNING: A saw chain without the correct
tension can come loose from the guide bar
and cause serious injury or death.
The more you use a saw chain the longer it becomes. It
is important to adjust the saw chain regularly.
Do a check of the saw chain tension each time you refill
with chain oil.
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018

Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for
Husqvarna T536LiXP. This model equipped with either
of the listed guide bar and saw chain combination(s),
fulfills the requirements according to UL 1662-2009 and
UL 60745-1-11.
Chainsaw model HusqvarnaT536LiXP met the kickback
performance requirements of ANSI B175.1-2012 when
tested with the combinations of bars and saw chains
listed below. The saw chain Husqvarna H38 is also
classified as a low kickback saw chain since is met the
requirements for low kickback saw chain outlined in
ANSI B175.1-2012. We recommend to use only the

with the listed bar and saw chain combinations.
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
Guide bar and saw chain combinations
Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for
HusqvarnaT536LiXP. The listed combination(s) of
powerhead, guide bar and saw chain meet all
requirements outlined in Canadian Standards
Association Z62.1-11 (Chain saws) and Z62.3-11 (Chain
Saw Kickback).
Furthermore the saw chain Husqvarna H38 is evaluated
and listed as a Type C Low Kickback Saw chain
according to the provisions in Z62.3-11.
Kickback information
The guide bar nose radius is determined by either the
maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or the
corresponding maximum nose radius of a solid bar.
As we are listing the maximum guide bar nose radius,
you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than
in our list. For guide bars of the same length, all
sprocket-nose guide bars of the same pitch and having
the same number of sprocket teeth may be considered
to have equivalent kickback energy.

AMERICAN STANDARD SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
operation. A chain saw is intended for twohanded use.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR CHAIN SAW USERS
Do not operate a chain saw when you are fatigued.
(ANSI B175.1-2012 Annex C)
Use safety footwear; snug-fitting clothing, protective
gloves, and eye, hearing and head protection devices.
KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Kickback may occur when the
nose or tip of the guide bar touches an
object, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a
lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly
back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to
lose control of the saw which could result in
serious personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon the safety
devices built into your saw. As a chain saw
user, you should take several steps to keep
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce
or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the
right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the
front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip
with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw
handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and
maintain control of the saw. Don’t let go.
Make sure that the area in which you are cutting is free
from obstacles. Do not let the nose of the guide bar
contact a log, branch, or any other obstacle which could
be hit while you are operating the saw.
Cut at high engine speeds.
Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain.
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the
manufacturer or the equivalent.
OTHER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not operate a chain saw with
one hand! Serious injury to the operator,
helpers, bystanders or any combination of
these persons may result from one-handed
488 - 002 - 01.03.2018
Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at
least 10 feet (3 m) from the fueling point before starting
the engine.
Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw
when starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep
bystanders and animals out of the work area.
Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area,
secure footing and a planned retreat path from the
falling tree.
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain
when the engine is running.
Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw
chain is not contacting anything.
Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide
bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from
your body.
Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly
adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be
sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle
control trigger is released.
Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down.
Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and
saplings because slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for
springback so that you will not be struck when the
tension in the wood fibers is released.
Keep handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.
Operate the chain saw only in well-ventilated areas.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have
been specifically trained to do so.
Do not operate a chain saw above shoulder height.
All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the
operator’s/owner’s safety and maintenance instructions,
should be performed by competent chain saw service
personnel. (For example, if improper tools are used to
remove the flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold
the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural
damage to the flywheel could occur and subsequently
cause the flywheel to burst.)
When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate
guide bar guard.
