Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack

A red and green flashing indicator light on the charger indicates 

that the battery pack temperature is outside the charging 

range. Once the pack is within the acceptable range, normal 

charging will take place and the red light will be continuous. 

Hot or cold battery packs may take longer to charge. 

Operation

IMPORTANT! The lawn mover is equipped with a safety circuit 

to prevent unauthorized use. Directly before starting up the 

lawn mower, insert the safety key into the slot found inside 

the battery housing (Fig. 11) and remove the safety key again 

whenever you interrupt or terminate your work.

To prevent the equipment switching on accidentally, the lawn 

mower is equipped with a safety switch button, which must be 

pressed before the ON/OFF switch bar lever can be activated.

Powering On and Off

1.  Open the battery compartment cover and slide the battery 

down to lock it into position (Fig. 12).

2.  Insert the safety key into the slot and close the battery 

compartment cover (Figs. 13 & 14).
