Reason the product is recalled

The fuel line in the identified lawn tractors was not routed behind the tank guard. This may allow the fuel line to contact and rub against the transmission belt.

The hazards to consumers

If the fuel line contacts or rubs against the transmission belt, fuel could leak from the fuel line, posing a risk of fire.

What consumers should do

Consumers should immediately stop using the affected models and contact their local authorised Husqvarna dealer to make arrangements for a free repair.
