OPERATION
Mowing
WARNING:
Before mowing, clear away sticks
and stones from mowing area. Furthermore, clear
away any weeds from mowing area in advance.
WARNING:
Always wear the safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields when operating
the mower.
CAUTION:
If the cut grass or foreign object
blocks up inside of the mower body, be sure to
remove the lock key and battery cartridge and
wear gloves before removing the grass or foreign
object.
NOTICE:
Use this machine for mowing lawn only.
Do not mow weeds with this machine.
► Fig.29
Firmly hold the handle with both hands when mowing.
The mowing speed guideline is approximately 7 to 14
meters per 10 seconds.
► Fig.30
The center lines of the front wheels are guidelines to
mowing width. Using the center lines as guidelines,
mow in strips. Overlap by one half to one third the previ-
ous strip to mow the lawn evenly.

3.
Center line
Change the mowing direction each time to prevent the
grass grain pattern from forming in just one direction.
► Fig.32
Periodically check the grass basket for mowed grass.
Empty the grass before it becomes full. Before every
periodical check, be sure to stop the mower then
remove the lock key and the battery cartridge.
NOTICE:
Using the mower with the grass basket
full prevents smooth blade rotation and places
an extra load on the motor, which may cause
breakdown.
Mowing a long-grass lawn
Do not try to cut long grass all at once. Instead, mow
the lawn in steps. Leave a day or two between mowings
until the lawn becomes evenly short.
► Fig.33
NOTE: Mowing long grass to a short length all at
once may cause the grass to die. The cut grass may
also block up inside of the mower body.
Emptying the grass basket
WARNING:
To reduce a risk of accident, reg-
ularly check the grass basket for any damage or
weakened strength. Replace the grass basket if
necessary.
1.
Release the switch lever and drive lever (for
DLM462/DLM532), or release the switch lever (for
