MOWING TIPS
Make sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wires
and other objects that could damage the reel mower
blades or motor. Such objects could be accidentally
thrown by the mower in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator and others.
For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less
of the total length of the grass.
When cutting heavy grass, reduce walking speed
to allow for more effective cutting and a proper
discharge of the clippings.
Do not cut wet grass. It will stick to the underside
of the deck and prevent proper mulching of grass
clippings.
New or thick grass may require a narrower cut.
Cutting
grass
in
circles
has
better
effect
than
cutting
back
and
forth.
NOTE
: Always stop mower, allow blades to completely
stop, remove the switch key and remove the battery pack
from the battery port before cleaning underneath the
mower.
SLOPE OPERATION
WARNING:
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and
fall accidents that can result in severe injury. Operation
on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a
slope, do not mow it. For your safety, do not attempt to
mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
Mow across the face of slopes, not up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction
on slopes.
Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or
bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass
can hide obstacles. Remove all objects such as
rocks, tree limbs, etc., which could be tripped over or
thrown by the blade.
Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall
can cause serious personal injury. If you feel you are
losing your balance, release the switch control bail
wire immediately.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or
embankments; you could lose your footing or
balance.
EMPTYING THE GRASS CATCHER
Stop mower and allow blades to completely stop.
Open battery cover.
Remove switch key and battery pack.
Lift the rear discharge flap.
Lift the grass catcher by its support rod to remove
from mower.
Empty grass clippings.
Lift the rear discharge flap and reinstall the grass
catcher as described earlier in this manual.
Reinstall switch key and battery pack when you are
ready to mow.
