29. 

When you use the machine on muddy ground, 
wet slope, or slippery place, pay attention to 
your footing.

30. 

Do not submerge the machine into a puddle.

31. 

When operating the machine, pay attention to 
piping and wiring.

Maintenance and storage

1. 

Replace worn or damaged parts for safety. 
Use only genuine replacement parts and 
accessories.

2. 

Inspect and maintain the mower regularly.

3. 

When not in use, store the mower out of the 
reach of children.

4. 

Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to 
be sure the equipment is in safe working 
condition.

5. 

Check the grass basket frequently for wear or 
deterioration. For storage, always make sure 
the grass basket is empty. Replace a worn 
grass basket with a new factory replacement 
for safety.

6. 

Use only the manufacturer genuine blades 

specified in this manual.

7. 

Be careful during adjustment of the mower 

to prevent entrapment of the fingers between 

moving blades and fixed parts of the mower.

8. 

Check the blade mounting bolt at frequent 
intervals for proper tightness.

9. 

Always allow the mower to cool down before 
storing.

10. 

When servicing the blades be aware that, even 

though the power source is switched off, the 

blades can still be moved.

11. 

Never remove or tamper with safety devices. 
Check their proper operation regularly. Never 
do anything to interfere with the intended 
function of a safety device or to reduce the 
protection provided by a safety device.

12. 

Do not leave the machine unattended outdoors 
in the rain.

13. 

When storing the machine, avoid direct sun-
light and rain, and store it in a place where it 
does not get hot or humid.

Battery tool use and care

1. 

Recharge only with the charger specified by 

the manufacturer.

 A charger that is suitable for 

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire 

when used with another battery pack.

2. 

Use power tools only with specifically desig

-

nated battery packs.

 Use of any other battery 

packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

3. 

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away 
from other metal objects, like paper clips, 
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal 
objects, that can make a connection from one 
terminal to another.

 Shorting the battery termi-

nals together may cause burns or a fire.

4. 

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be 
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-

tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If 

liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical 
help.

 Liquid ejected from the battery may cause 

irritation or burns.

5. 

Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-

aged or modified.

 Damaged or modified batteries 

may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in 

fire, explosion or risk of injury.

6. 

Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or 

excessive temperature.

 Exposure to fire or tem

-

perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.

7. 

Follow all charging instructions and do not 
charge the battery pack or tool outside the 

temperature range specified in the instruc

-

tions.

 Charging improperly or at temperatures 

outside the specified range may damage the 

battery and increase the risk of fire.

Electrical and battery safety

1. 

Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a fire.

 

The cell may explode. Check with local codes for 
possible special disposal instructions.

2. 

Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies).

 

Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause 
damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if 
swallowed.

3. 

Do not charge battery in rain, or in wet 
locations.

4. 

Do not charge the battery outdoors.

5. 

Do not handle charger, including charger plug, 
and charger terminals with wet hands. 

6. 

Do not replace the battery in the rain.

7. 

Do not wet the terminal of battery with liquid 
such as water, or submerge the battery. Do not 
leave the battery in the rain, nor charge, use, 
or store the battery in a damp or wet place.

 If 

the terminal gets wet or liquid enters inside of bat-
tery, the battery may be short circuited and there is 

a risk of overheat, fire, or explosion.

8. 

After removing the battery from the machine or 
charger, be sure to attach the battery cover to 
the battery and store it in a dry place.

9. 

Do not replace the battery with wet hands.

10. 

Avoid dangerous environment. Don't use the 
machine in dump or wet locations or expose it 
to rain.

 Water entering the machine will increase 

the risk of electric shock.

11. 

If the battery cartridge gets wet, drain the 
water inside and then wipe it with a dry cloth. 
Dry the battery cartridge completely in a dry 
place before use.

Service

1. 

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair 

person using only identical replacement parts.

 This will 

ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

2. 

Never service damaged battery packs.

 Service
