Important Safety Instructions

!

WARNING:

 We want you to enjoy years of safe and productive use from your DR

®

 WHISPER

LITE

® 

CORDLESS Electric Mower.  We don’t want you to get injured, so please take a few

moments to read the following guidelines for safely operating your new machine.

READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Protect those around you

·

 

Do not allow children, other bystanders or pets in your work area when the mower is being
operated.

·

 

Only adults and teenagers with a thorough understanding of these instructions should operate the
mower.

Preparation

·

 

Use safety glasses.  Always use a face or dust mask if operating in dusty conditions.

·

 

Dress appropriately.  Always wear substantial footwear and long pants.  Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry.  They can get caught in the moving parts.

·

 

Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and proper use of the DR

®

 WHISPER LITE

®

.

·

 

Do not operate the mower without the proper side chute or mulch cover in place. Use of
accessories not recommended in the manual may increase the risk of injury.

·

 

Never operate the DR

®

 WHISPER LITE

®

 mower without the proper guards, safety switches or

other safety protective devices in place and properly connected.  Inspect to determine that these
safety devices are properly installed, in good repair, and operate properly.  If the condition or
operation of these devices is questionable, they must be repaired or replaced before using the
mower.

·

 

Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe injuries.  Thoroughly inspect the area
where the mower is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wire, dog bones, pet supplies or
lawn toys, and other foreign objects which could be thrown by the mower blade. Also note the
location of holes, stumps and other possible hazards.

·

 

Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.

·

 

Never operate the mower in wet grass or in the rain.  Wet conditions can be slippery.

Operation

·

 

The length of time that a battery can hold its charge while mowing a lawn depends upon lawn
conditions; tall, thick, or wet grass make the mower work harder and the battery discharge faster.

·

 

Before starting the mower, adjust the cutting height to cut 1" to 2" of grass at a time. Cut thicker
grass at a greater cutting height, or cut a narrower swath. Do not force the lawn mower forward
in thick grass. The DR

®

 WHISPER LITE

®

 will do a better and safer job when cutting at a steady

rate.

·

 

Stop the blade whenever you leave the operating position (behind the handlebar) for any reason,
including clearing grass and making any adjustments, repairs or inspections to the mower.

·

 

Before cleaning, repairing, inspecting, adjusting the height of the cut, or exchanging the
mulching cover and side discharge chute, remove the battery pack and make certain the blade has
stopped.

·

 

Look behind you before pulling the mower backwards to avoid falling.
