Husqvarna 390XP Thread

WordPress (how I have it installed…) does not really support “threading” so this thread will just spill over into the main channel.

Model Number: Husqvarna 390XP
Bar: Apx 36″ extended
Issue: Squished by a falling tree

Engine: 88cc
Code: HHVXS.0885AA
Produced in Sweden after 2012


Jumping Ahead… I found the SHOP manual and ripped it here. This is not the OWNERS manual, there is a very big difference!

WORKSHOP MANUAL / SHOP MANUAL / REPAIR MANUAL

Step 1 is always to drum up whatever manual is available in PDF. We find this with a Google Search of common name. Sometimes you can get it with more specific PN’s, but common name is usually the first hit.

Common Name? Guessing: 390 XP
That would generate “390 XP Manual” as a Search Term

First hit is the MFG
Not usually the spot where I find the best support, but maybe for Husqvarna.

Spot Check 88cc does equal 5.37cuin
Bar is different, but that is a variable
Close enough for Government Work

Operators Manual in PDF

Ok, that rendered. Freely available from the OEM. Cached copy now here. Print that out.

Illustrated parts list comes back bust, with some sort of errata.

May come in handy when it is time to work on the carb, looks like this model may have variants on details (as all things do)

Clicking out the FULL LIST of manuals, you can find more.

Nasty looking URL, not bothering to clean it up.

Keep clicking “LOAD MORE” and more will be revealed. Lets pull off the best we can for the Carburetor and Engine Block

BAH
Just a bunch of crap updates. As with most OEM

  • No Shop Manual
  • No Assembly Instructions
  • No clear Parts Blow-up (that I found)

… So we are off to the Wild West to find what we need

PAUSE
(As Schindler searches everywhere on the internet EXCEPT the OEM, as usual…)
RESUME

Posted the link for the actual SHOP manual above, and our task is complete. I will leave it to the reader to ponder why the fuck OEM’s never post things like parts blow-ups, shop manuals, etc. My guess is that their first inclination is to SELL this information.

Then… we just RIP that and share it

SO… I guess it is not profitable enough to SUPPORT the machine you distributed? No idea, dont care. Go find a manual for the Tesla or even my Nissan – lol. Good luck.
