CARRYING THE MOWER
DANGER:
ROTATING BLADES

PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY, REMOVE
SAFETY KEY AND BATTERY PACKS
WHEN UNATTENDED, OR WHEN
CHARGING, CLEANING, SERVICING,
TRANSPORTING, LIFTING, OR
STORING MOWER.

MOWING TIPS
WARNING:
ALWAYS INSPECT
AREA WHERE MOWER IS TO BE
USED AND REMOVE ALL STONES,
STICKS, WIRE, BONES, AND OTHER
DEBRIS WHICH MIGHT BE THROWN
BY THE ROTATING BLADE.
1.
WARNING:
Mow across the face
of slopes, never up-and-down. Exercise
extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes. Do not mow
excessively steep slopes. Always
maintain good footing.
2. Release bail handle to turn mower
“OFF” when crossing any gravel area
(stones can be thrown by the blade).
3. Set mower at highest cutting height
when mowing in rough ground or in
tall weeds. Removing too much grass
at one time can cause the motor to
be overloaded and to stop. Refer to
troubleshooting guide.
4. If a grass collection bag (8) is used
during the fast growing season, the grass
may tend to clog up at the discharge
opening. Release bail handle to turn
mower off and remove the safety key.
Remove the catcher and shake the grass
down to the back end of the bag. Also
clean out any grass or debris which
may be packed around the discharge
opening. Replace the grass catcher.
5. If mower should start to vibrate
abnormally, release bail handle to turn
mower off and remove safety key. Check
immediately for cause. Vibration is a
warning of trouble. Do not operate mower
until a service check has been made.
Refer to troubleshooting guide in manual.
6.
ALWAYS RELEASE BAIL HANDLE
TO TURN MOWER OFF AND
REMOVE SAFETY KEY WHEN
LEAVING IT UNATTENDED EVEN
FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
THE FOLLOWING SUGGESTIONS WILL
HELP YOU TO OBTAIN OPTIMUM RUN
TIME FROM YOUR CORDLESS MOWER:
1. Slow down in areas where the grass is
especially long or thick.
2. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet
from rain or dew-soaked.
3. Cut your lawn frequently, especially
during high growth periods.
NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT
YOUR MOWER BE RECHARGED
AFTER USE TO PROLONG THE
BATTERY LIFE. FREQUENT CHARGING
WILL NOT HARM YOUR BATTERY,
AND WILL ENSURE THAT THE
BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED AND
READY FOR ITS NEXT USE. STORING
BATTERY NOT FULLY CHARGED WILL
SHORTEN BATTERY LIFE.
