Maintenance

NOTE: To ensure long and reliable service, perform the following maintenance procedures regularly.

Check for obvious defects such as a loose, dislodged or a damaged blade, loose ttings, 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.

BLADE SHARPENING

KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT

GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH PROPERLY.

BE SURE THE MOWER IS TURNED OFF AND REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK. WEAR

PROPER EYE PROTECTION AND GLOVES PROTECTION WHILE REMOVING, SHARPENING,

AND INSTALLING BLADE. Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is usually

sufcient 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. J)

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.

2. Remove the battery pack.

3. Place the mower in stand up storage mode.

BLADE BALANCING (See Fig. K)

Check balance of blade by placing centre hole in blade L-1 over a nail or screwdriver shank L-2,

clamped horizontally in a vise L-3. If either end of the blade rotates downward, le that end. Blade

is properly balanced when neither end drops.

BLADE MAINTENANCE (See Fig. L)

Replace your blade after 50 hours mowing or 2 years, whichever is the sooner—regardless of

condition.

BE SURE THE MOWER IS TURNED OFF AND REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK.

Follow these procedures to remove and replace the blade. You will need garden gloves and a

wrench to remove the blade. Hold the blade and unscrew the blade bolt counter-clockwise using a

spanner wrench, and then remove the blade.

To re-assemble, position the blade with the cutting edges towards the ground. Then securely

tighten the blade bolt.

WARNING! Stop the mower before removing the grass collection

bag.
