CHARGING THE MOWER (See Fig.16.)

It is recommended the batteries are charged minimum 4 hours before first use regardless of battery level 
indicator reading. Mower batteries must be fully charged before first use. To verify mower batteries are fully 
charged, check the battery level indicator.

For best results:

•  Do not charge in an area of extreme heat or cold.
•  Never charge a frozen battery.
•  Mount or place the charger in an area with adequate ventilation, ideally with the charger in a horizontal 

position with the cooling fins facing up.

To charge:

•  Make sure both the charger and mower connections are clean and free of dirt or debris.
•  Insert charger plug into charging port on mower, making sure it is properly connected.
•  Connect charger to power supply using normal household current of 120 V, AC only, 60 Hz. The 

batteries should automatically begin to charge.

NOTE:

 The charger is equipped with a plug featuring a grounding pin and must be plugged into a 

matching standard three-prong outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with 
all local codes and ordinances. Do not use a two-prong outlet, adaptors, or modify the plug provided. If 
it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

•  When powered, the LED indicator on the charger will illuminate to indicate the charger’s status. Refer to 

the chart below Fig. 16 to determine the meaning of the LED’s display.

•  When you are ready to mow, disconnect the charger from the power supply, then disconnect the 

charger from the mower. 

NOTICE!

Always turn power switch to OFF position and remove key when charging mower and when mower 
is not in use.

NOTICE!

Always connect the mower to the charger when the unit is not in use. If it is not possible to leave the 
mower charger connected, make sure to charge the batteries fully at least once a month.
