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.
Firmly hold the lawn mower handle with both hands
when mowing.
The outside edges of the front wheels is the guideline
for mowing width. Using the two front wheel outside
edges as a guideline, mow in strips, overlapping by
one half to one third the previous strip, to mow the lawn
evenly.
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.
NOTE: Using the mower with the grass basket full
prevents smooth blade rotation and places an extra
load on the motor, which may cause breakdown.
