Question:

I purchased a 223L April 24 and used it that afternoon. I can not use it because it runs so hot it has burned my arm VERY BAD.
My dealer has not had this problem. Iwould like for him to run it and see.
What can I expect? I can not use it.
I have just purchased a yth24k48.
I choice the 223 over a Kawasaki
Looking forward to a quick solution. This is a very bad saftey concern

This is a common problem with the 223L. You are not the first to be burnt by this trimmer. File a complaint with the Consumer Products Safety Division. Husqvarna's not going to correct this without being forced to. With enough complaints the CPSD will force them to make a recall.
