Caring for the Battery
You can lengthen the life of your Battery by following some simple guidelines.
•
Always charge the Battery inside in a garage or other covered area where it will be dry and protected from the
weather.
•
Only charge the Battery when the temperature is at least 32ºF (0ºC) – above freezing – but not more than 104ºF
(40ºC). Charging in lower or higher temperatures can be harmful to the Battery.
•
Always keep the Battery away from water, heat sources (stoves, radiators, open flame, etc.), and hazardous
chemicals.
•
Use only an approved 36-Volt NEUTON Charger to charge the Battery. Make sure that the NEUTON Charger
output voltage printed on the Charger label matches the voltage of your Battery. Use of a different
Charger may not allow the Battery to fully recharge and may cause a fire or explosion. Use of a non-
approved NEUTON Charger will void your warranty.
•
Never use the Charger on any other product. Never operate a damaged Charger. If there is damage to a cord or
the Charger Unit, replace the Charger or have it repaired.
•
When storing the Battery after removing it from the Mower, follow the storage guidelines in “Chapter 7:
Maintaining and Storing Your NEUTON Mower”.
•
For long-term storage, please see “Recharging to Full Charge for Off-Season Storage” on page 30.
•
If the Motor will not run after you have fully charged the Battery, consult the techniques in “Chapter 8:
Troubleshooting Tips”. If you still need help, visit our website at
www.neutonpower.com or call Toll Free 1-866-
NEUTON1 (638-8661) and one of our Technical Support Representatives will be happy to assist you.
