OPERATION
Do not:
- Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you could lose your footing or
balance.
- Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
- Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause you to slip.
Mower overload protection
To prevent overload conditions, do not try to cut too much grass at one time. Slow down your
cutting pace or raise the cut height. Your mower has built-in overload circuit protection. When
the mower is overloaded, the motor will stop. Switch the mower off and check to see if grass
has collected beneath the deck and clear it if necessary, then restart the mower.
Battery high temperature protection
The battery pack will generate heat during operation. The heat dissipates slower in hot
weather. If the battery temperature exceeds more than 70
circuit will immediately turn off the mower to protect the battery pack from damage. Release
the bail handle, wait until the battery pack cools down and then restart the mower.
Function of full indicator (Fig. O)
If the grass bag is empty or it is not filled with grass, the grass full indicator will be open.
If the grass bag is filled with grass the grass full indicator will be closed.
Emptying the grass bag
As soon as the grass bag indicator closes while you are mowing this means that it is time to
empty the grass bag.
NOTE: Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the mower and wait until the blade has
come to a complete stop.
To take off the grass bag, use one hand to lift up safety flap and the other to grab onto the
carry handle. The safety flap automatically falls down after removing the grass bag and closes
off the rear chute opening.
Empty out the grass bag then refit to machine.
NOTE: If any grass residue is caught in the discharge chute, clean it using a brush. Do not
remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade by hand or with your feet. Instead
use suitable tools such as a brush or broom. To ensure that the cut grass can be collected
into grass bag, the discharge opening and inside the mower casing must be cleared of any
blockages.

WARNING: Replace or re-sharpen the mowing blade at the end of the mowing
season. Always have the mowing blade re-sharpened or replaced by a
