While using your Husqvarna lawn mower, you may notice excessive vibration.
Common reasons for excessive vibrations
Damaged blades
One of the reasons for your lawn mower to shake excessively is due to damaged blades.
This can occur if a blade hits something while mowing, such as a rock.

How to examine and change a lawn mower blade
Incorrectly balanced blades
After changing the blades, you may experience that they are not correctly attached to your product.
In this case, the blades can become unbalanced and cause vibration.
It is necessary to balance the blades after they are changed or sharpened. Let a service centre sharpen and balance the blades.
Cutting high and wet grass
If the grass is high and wet, it will be harder to cut it. Setting a low cutting height may cause excessive vibrations to your lawn mower.
Start cutting the grass with a higher cutting height, then lower the cutting height and cut the same area again. This will make it easier to cut the grass and there will be less strain on your product.
It is recommended to only cut 1/3 of the grass length at a time.
Damaged engine
If the engine is malfunctioning, you can experience vibration and the sound of the product will be different.
In this case, please contact your local authorized Husqvarna dealer.
Incorrect fuel type
If using the incorrect type of fuel for your lawn mower, you can experience unwanted vibration and excessive noise. Incorrect type of fuel can damage the engine.
When putting fuel into the product, make sure to use the correct one. The specific type of fuel for your lawn mower's model can be found in the operator's manual.
WARNING: Do not mix different types of fuel.
