MOWING TIPS
Make sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wires, and
other objects that could damage the lawn mower blades
or motor. Do not mow over property stakes or other metal
posts. Such objects could damage the blade or be acci-
dentally thrown by the mower in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator and others.
For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the
total length of the grass.
When cutting heavy grass, reduce walking speed to allow
for more effective cutting and a proper discharge of the
clippings.
Do not cut wet grass. It will stick to the underside of the
deck and prevent mulching of grass clippings.
New or thick grass may require a narrower cut or a higher
cutting height.
Clean the underside of the mower deck after each use
to remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and any other
accumulated debris.
NOTE: Always stop mower, allow blades to completely
stop, remove the start key and disconnect the battery
pack before cleaning unerneath the mower.
SLOPE OPERATION
See Figure 9.
WARNING:
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents
that can result in severe injury. Operation on slopes
requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do
not mow it. For your safety, do not attempt to mow slopes
greater than 15 degrees.
Mow across the face of slopes, not 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. Remove all objects such as rocks, tree limbs,
etc., which could be tripped over or thrown by the blade.
Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause
serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing your bal-
ance, release the upper blade control lever immediately.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments;
you could lose your footing or balance.
OPERATION
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Before performing any maintenance or cleaning the lawn
mower, make sure the mower blades come to a complete
stop and the batteries and start key are removed to avoid
accidental starting and possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts can create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Never use a hose, water, or any liquids to clean or
rinse off the lawn mower. Corrosive liquids, water,
fertilizers, and chemicals used to treat lawns can enter
the lawn mower and/or battery compartment and damage
electronic components and/or the battery pack, which
can result in a short circuit, increased risk of fire, and
serious personal injury. Remove any buildup of grass
and leaves on or around the mower housing and/or
underneath the mower deck. Wipe the mower clean with
a dry cloth occasionally.
NOTICE:
Periodically inspect the entire product for damaged,
missing, or loose parts such as screws, nuts, bolts, caps,
etc. Tighten securely all fasteners and caps and do not
