A statement from Husqvarna says: “It has been determined that anomalies in the manufacturing process have resulted, with certain batches, in hand brake cylinders with defective machining from the supplier. This can lead to early wear of the sealing cup in the hand brake cylinder, thus leading to impaired braking performance. As the anomalies are restricted to specific batches, the hand brake cylinder must be checked and the affected batches replaced.”

Owners of affected models will be informed via letter and are asked to contact their local Husqvarna dealer immediately. The work will be carried out free of charge.
