Question:
Hi just bought a 128ld string trimmer on Friday. Assembled, no problem, and fueled it with Husqvarna premix. Had a harder time than usual starting as it did not want to run at any choke position, other than 1/2 choke. After several minutes, it started to run a little better and I managed to set the choke to open. Picked up trimmer and started to use it when suddenly my right leg felt wet. Fuel was pouring out of the inboard side of the fuel tank. within a couple of minutes the tank had drained and I luckily avoided a fire. I do know how to run power equipment as I was a Park Superintendent for 25 years and have used almost Husqvarna products professionally that whole time. I called customer service and they suggested that I contact a dealer for repair under warranty! The only reason I had called, was to inform Husqvarna of the issue! I will also be contacting my states consumer protection office just so they are aware. Thanks

Ever heard of potential shipping damages? Don't happen very often but it does and sometimes thing make it pass quality control too. Give them a chance to find what happen.
