12.6 ROPS MAINTENANCE
ROPS Inspection
NOTE
Inspect the ROPS after the first 20 hours of operation.
•
Check the torque of the ROPS mounting bolts. Tighten
the bolts to the correct torques as shown below if
necessary.
•
Inspect the operator’s seat and the mounting parts for the
seat belt. Tighten the bolts to the correct torque as shown
below, if necessary, and replace parts that show wear or
damage.
•
Inspect the seat latch to make sure it is secured and
functioning properly. Adjust or repair, as necessary.
Possible damage to the ROPS
If the unit has rolled over or the ROPS has been in some other
type of accident (such as hitting an overhead object during
transport), the ROPS must be replaced to retain the best
protection. Following an accident, check the ROPS, the
operator’s seat, the seat belt, seat belt mountings and seat
latch for possible damage. Before operating the machine,
replace all damaged parts.
NOTE
The ROPS structure’s protective capability may be
impaired by structural damage,
overturn or alteration. Do
not remove or alter any of the ROPS parts. Do not attempt
to weld or straighten ROPS. Failure to adhere to these
instructions could result in severe injury or death.
12.7 BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Your Greenworks Commercial mower is powered by a
lithium module which, when maintained properly, will
provide years of useful life. For proper care, adhere to the
following instructions:
•
Always charge batteries after each use, regardless of how
little used. Batteries must be attached to a plugged-in
battery charger with the charger power switch “ON”
when the unit is not being used.
•
Check that battery cables are securely tightened to
batteries each time you service the battery.
•
Keep grass, dirt and debris from collecting near battery
terminals.
•
Batteries are not to remain in a discharged state or
damage to the batteries will occur.
•
Charge batteries indoors in a well-ventilated and dry
location away from sparks or flames. Never expose
charger to rain, vapor or liquid.
•
Charge only lithium batteries provided by Greenworks
Commercial.
•
Do not touch uninsulated portion of charger (terminal
pins) or of output connector.
•
Do not use with defective cords and wires. Replace
defective cords and wires immediately.
12.8 LITHIUM ENERGY MODULE
MAINTENANCE
In order to prolong the battery module life cycle and make
sure the module stays in good condition, please adhere to the
following instructions.
•
Whenever a battery pack is fully discharged and turned
off, DO NOT USE IT AGAIN until it is recharged. Over-
discharge of the battery pack means the battery life will
be shortened and the battery may become permanently
damaged.
•
Whenever a battery pack is fully discharged and turned
off. It is best to recharge the battery as soon as possible.
There is no need to fully charge; it will be beneficial even
if you only charge the module for 5-10 minutes. It is best
to recharge it within 24 hours.
•
For the charging, charge every module separately as often
as possible. Certain module pairs (MODULE A and
MODULE B) can be charged in parallel (while linked
together), but, each module should be charged separate at
least every 20-30 charging cycles, or when total run time
is reduced.
•
Before connecting in parallel, please make sure the
modules have the same SOC (State of Charge, or
Voltage). Different SOC means different voltage and may
charge/discharge to each other.
•
If the battery module will not be used for a long time
(several days or weeks), please disconnect the connectors
between modules and loads.
•
For long-term storage, please keep the SOC at around
50% of the battery pack's fully charged voltage level. To
reach that point, you can fully discharge the battery pack
and then recharge the pack in half the charging time.
•
For long-term storage, please discharge and recharge the
pack in half the charging time.
•
For long-term storage, please make sure the storage
temperature is -4°F - 113°F within one month, and 32°F -
95°F between two and 12 months.
•
The best working environment of the battery module is
5°F - 113°F. Battery modules can be used a -4°F - 131°F
for discharge, and 32°F - 107°F for charge.
•
Avoid severe vibration. Do not throw or drop the battery
pack.
12.9 SERVICE
