1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet
from rain or dew. Wet grass may form
clumps which interfere with the mulching
action and reduce runtime. The best time
to mow grass is in the late afternoon
when the grass is dry and the newly
cut area will not be exposed to direct
sunlight.
2) For best mulching performance, set the
cutting height to remove about one third
of the grass blade length, ideally no
more than 1.5" inches at one time. If the
lawn is overgrown, it may be necessary
to increase the cut height to reduce the
pushing effort and prevent overloading
the motor. For extremely heavy mulching,
it is advisable to first cut at a high cut
height setting, and then re-cut to the final
cut height. Otherwise, make narrower
cuts and mow slowly.
3) For best performance, keep the mower
housing free of built-up grass. From time
to time turn off mower and wait for the
blade to come to a complete stop. Then
unplug the Safety Key (2) and turn mower
on its side. Using an object such as a
stick, wipe out any accumulation of grass
in the blade area. Be careful of the sharp
16
edges of the blade. Clean often in wet,
new grass, and always after every use.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions
may require that an area be mulched a
second time to fully disperse the grass
throughout the lawn. If cutting a second
time, it is advisable to cut perpendicular
(across) the first cut pattern. DO NOT
CHANGE CUT PATTERN IN ANY WAY
THAT WOULD CAUSE MOWING DOWN A
HILL.
5) Change your cutting pattern from week to
week. This will help prevent matting and
graining of the lawn.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Stop the mower and
remove the Safety Key before
removing the Grass Collection Bag.
NOTE: To ensure long and reliable service,
perform the following maintenance
3 in 1 Cordless Lawn Mower
procedures regularly. Check for obvious
defects such as a loose, dislodged or a
damaged blade, loose fittings, and worn
or damaged components. Check that the
covers and guards are all undamaged and
are correctly attached to mower. Carry out
any necessary maintenance or repairs before
operating mower. If the mower should
happen to fail despite regular maintenance,
please call our customer helpline for advice
1-866-354-9679.
BLADE (19) SHARPENING
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER
PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES NOT
CUT GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH PROPERLY.
WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE
REMOVING, SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING
BLADE. ENSURE THAT SAFETY KEY IS
REMOVED.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing
season is usually sufficient under normal
circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull
quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more
frequent sharpening may be required.
REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE
IMMEDIATELY.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE: (See Fig. M)
1. Make sure blade remains balanced.
2. Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.
3. Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of
blade to keep it balanced, removing equal
amounts of material from both ends.
Note:
1. Be sure the mower is turned off and
remove the key.
2. Place the mower in stand up storage
mode.
BLADE BALANCING (See Fig. N)
Check balance of blade by placing center
hole in blade N-1 over a nail or screwdriver
shank N-2, clamped horizontally in a vise N-3.
If either end of the blade rotates downward,
file that end. Blade is properly balanced when
neither end drops.
BLADE MAINTENANCE (See Fig. O1, O2)
Replace your metal Blade (19) after 50 hours
mowing or 2 years, which ever is the sooner-
