11. Reset button
The reset button on the main body of the machine is to prevent damage occurring to the
battery and engine due to current overload. The overload could be due to the blade
stalling. if the machine fails to operate make sure, that the reset button is depressed to re-
activate your mower.
Cutting long grass could make the blade stall and cause overload. In this case change the
cutting height on the machine.
12. Mowing
Before mowing ensure that the area is clear of stones or other objects, that may damage
the mower or cause injury.
Start by mowing around the edges of your lawn, then cut the centre area in stripes. See
below.
During the growing season mow the grass twice a week. The grass will be weakened if
more than 1/3 is cut away at one time.
The machine should be turned off before removing the bin for emptying.
Do not overload the machine.
If you hear the engine change pitch dramatically while mowing it may be overloaded.
Change the cutting height. Push more slowly when cutting thick grass.
