Do:

-   Mow across the face of slopes, never mow up and down. Exercise extreme caution when 

changing direction on slopes.

-   Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects or bumps which could cause you to slip or 

trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Do not:

-   Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you could lose your footing or 

balance.

-   Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
-   Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause you to slip.

Mower overload protection

To prevent overload conditions, do not try to cut too much grass at one time. Slow down your 
cutting pace or raise the cut height. Your mower has built-in overload circuit protection. When 
the mower is overloaded, the motor will stop. Switch the mower off and remove the battery 
pack, check to see if grass has collected beneath the deck and clear it if necessary, then 
restart the mower.

Battery high temperature protection

The battery pack will generate heat during operation. The heat dissipates slower in hot 
weather. If the battery temperature exceeds more than 70 

o

C during operation, the protection 

circuit will immediately turn off the mower to protect the battery pack from damage. Release 
the trigger, wait until the battery pack cools down and then restart the mower.

Boost function

This mulching mower is equipped with an intelligent boost function, which would auto- adjust 
the motor power during different working situation. High efficiency cutting performance.

Multi-function handle

This multi-function handle could be used in YF 12V iFlex grass trimmer and hedge trimmer. 
Removing the handle assy and then connecting to one of the other accessories- by a press of 
a button.
