Note:
Keep mower running when turning
mower. Turning mower off when
making a turn does not save battery
energy.
To Stop Motor
1.
Release control bar.
2.
Remove key from plug receptacle if mower will
be unattended for any period of time. Hang key
in a high place out of reach of children.
3.
Always charge battery immediately after each
use of mower. If battery is not charged after
each use, battery life will be shortened. See
Charging Battery in Before Starting section.
IMPORTANT: Your mower has been
designed to be safe if left continually on
charge for extended periods of time. It is
recommended that the battery be left
continually on charge when it is not in use
during the mowing season. During the
non-mowing season, the mower can be
unplugged and stored if the battery is fully
charged.
Circuit Breaker
If mower is run under too much load, the circuit
breaker will trip. Follow these instructions to reset
circuit breaker.
IMPORTANT: Never reset circuit breaker
when key is in receptacle and control bar is
squeezed to handle.
1.
Remove key from plug receptacle (Fig. 15).
2.
Wait 30 seconds to 1 minute before pushing in
circuit breaker button (Fig. 15).
3.
Reinstall key in plug receptacle.
4.
Resume cutting under less load.
EN–9
If circuit breaker repeatedly trips, raise the
height-of-cut or side discharge.
Mowing Tips
Battery Run Time
With a battery powered lawn mower, the condition of
the grass and the way that you mow the grass will
affect the how long the battery will run on a single
charge at each mowing.
The following are some things that will affect battery
run time:
Moisture content of grass – The more moisture
there is in the grass, the faster the battery will
run down.
Walking/mowing speed – The faster you walk,
the faster the battery will run down.
Mode of operation – Mulching grass requires the
most battery energy. Bagging requires the second
highest amount of battery energy and side
discharging uses the least.
Height-of-cut setting – If you are experiencing
problems with the battery running down too fast,
try raising the height-of-cut setting one notch.
General Mulching Tips
Your mower is designed to mulch grass when the
mulch door is completely closed (Fig. 7). Follow
these instructions whether cutting grass or leaves for
the best cutting results and lawn appearance:
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting
season. Periodically file down nicks on blade.
Only mow dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and
leaves tend to clump on yard and may cause
mower to plug or motor to stall. They may also
be slippery to walk on and could cause you to
slip and fall.
