damage. If damaged do not operate the unit until it
has been repaired by an authorized service
professional.
• Never operate the mower without the proper
discharge cover, grass bag, mulching insert, side
discharge chute, or other safety devices in place
and working. Never operate the mower with
damaged safety devices. Failure to do so can result

could catch fire or explode. Check with local codes
and waste management for proper disposal
instructions.

other metal objects, like paper clips,coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.

contained within the battery are corrosive and may
cause damage to eyes or skin if released. It may be
toxic if swallowed.

from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above130°C may cause explosion.
• Exercise care in handling batteries to avoid shorting
the battery with conducting materials such as rings,
bracelets, keys, etc. The battery or conductor may
overheat and cause burns if contact with said
materials is made.
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.

SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall
accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation
on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a
slope, do not mow it.
Do:
English
• Mow across the face of slopes; never mow 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.
Do not:
• Mow excessively steep slopes.
• Mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you
could lose your footing or balance.
• Mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
• Mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause
slipping.

SERVICE/MAINTENANCE

• Check the blade and the motor (machine) mounting
bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness.
• Replace the blade if it is bent or cracked. An
unbalanced blade causes vibration that could
damage the motor drive unit or cause personal
injury.
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to
ensure the equipment is in safe working condition.
• Do not wash with a hose; avoid getting water in
motor and electrical connections.
• Never remove or tamper with safety devices. Check
their proper operation regularly. Never do anything
to interfere with the intended function of a safety
device or to reduce the protection provided by a
safety device.
• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build up. Allow machine to cool before storing.
• Never make any adjustments or repairs with the
motor running.
• Always remove battery pack from mowers before
adjusting, cleaning, or repairing.
• Check grass catcher components and the discharge
guard frequently and replace with manufacturer's
recommended parts, when necessary.
• Sharpen a dull blade equally at each end to
maintain the balance.
• Keep guards in place and in working order. Mower
blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap the blades or
wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing.
• Clean the blade thoroughly and check its balance by
supporting it horizontally on a thin nail through its
center hole. The nail should also be in a horizontal
position. If either end of the blade rotates downward,
remove some metal from the heavy or lower end
until the blade is balanced. It is balanced when
neither end drops.
• Use identical replacement blades only.
• Maintain Lawn Mower With Care – Keep cutting
edges sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
