Husqvarna K 770 Manuel D'utilisation page 14

Use of this power cutter with a carbide tipped blade is a
violation of work safety regulations.
Due to the hazardous nature and exigent circumstances
involved with fire fighting and rescue operations
conducted by the various highly trained public safety
forces, safety professionals (fire departments),
Husqvarna is aware that they may use this power cutter
with carbide tipped blades in certain emergency
situations due to the ability of carbide tipped blades to
cut many different types of obstructions and materials in
combination without having to take time to switch blades
or machines. When using this power cutter be aware at
all times that carbide tipped blades are more kickback
prone than diamond blades if not used properly. Carbide
tipped blades can also throw pieces of material away
from the blade.
For these reasons, a power cutter equipped with a
carbide tipped blade should never be used except by
highly trained public safety professionals who are aware
of the risks associated with its use and then only in
those exigent circumstances when other tools are
deemed inefficient and ineffective for fire or rescue
operations. A power cutter equipped with a carbide
tipped blade should never be used to cut wood in non-
rescue operations.

flange washers
CAUTION: Use only Husqvarna flange
washers with a minimum diameter of 105

the cutting blade agrees with the installed arbor
bushing. The diameter of the center hole is printed
on the cutting blade.
• Use only Husqvarna arbor bushings.
