The side marked "2" activates the right side battery port.
u
Note: The mower can be operated with a single battery pack if
the switch is in the correct position.
Active battery, state of charge indicators
Note: State of charge is only indicated when a battery pack
is inserted, or when the mower is turned on, or when a single
battery is present and the switch is toggled to connect it to run
the mower.
This mower is equipped with a state of charge indicator
located on the base of the dashboard (10). This is used to
display the active battery port and the current level of charge
in the active battery.
When a battery pack is installed into the battery ports, the
three charge level LEDs will illuminate for 3 seconds display-
ing the current level of charge in the battery and then turn off.
While the mower is in use the current level of charge for the
selected, active battery will be displayed.
When the mower is first activated, all of the LED indicator
u
lights on the dashboard (10) will temporarily illuminate.
The dashboard LED lights on the inactive battery side will
u
turn off.
The dashboard LEDs on the active battery side LED (17)
u
will remain lit and the three charge level indicator LEDs
(18) will indicate the percent of charge in the battery. (See
chart in figure A.)
If no LEDs illuminate for the active battery, toggle the bat-
u
tery selection button (11) to the inactive battery. If neither
battery LEDs illuminate, charge the battery.
Note: The safety key has to be inserted for all of the LEDs
and switch functions to occur as described.
DUALVOLT 54V Battery Pack (Fig C1.)
The Dualvolt 54V battery pack can be used on 54V & 18V
Black+Decker Cordless tools. The battery can recognise
the tool it is inserted into and will run at the relevant power,
providing longer runtime in 18V tools. There is a State of
charge button (16b) which will indicate the level charge at both
54V & 18V.
Assembly
Warning! Before assembly, make sure the bail handle is
released and the safety key is removed.
Attaching lower handle
Lift lower handle (4) into place making sure the arrow (19)
u
on the base of the mower lines up with 1, 2, or S on the
base of the handle (20) (inset of Figure F).
Note! Ensure each side of the lower handle is set on the
same number.
The arrow must be lined up with 1 or 2 for operation.
Close the handle height adjust levers (6) as shown in
u
Figure F. As you close each, make sure the teeth are
engaged as shown in Figure G.
If the connection between the handle and lever is too tight
u
or loose, open the lever and adjust the depth of the lever
by turning the lever. Close it again until the teeth are fully
clasped and each lever stays securely closed.
Attaching upper handle (fig. H)
The upper handle has three different mounting position holes
(21) to adjust length of the handle from deck.
14
(Original instructions)
The first set of holes near the bottom of the upper handle tube
allows for maximum handle length. Using the middle and top
mounting positions will shorten handle length
Remove the upper-handle attachment levers (5), nuts
u
(22), and washers (23) from the handle.
Line up the holes on the bottom of the upper handle (3)
u
with the holes on the top of the lower handle (4).
Note: Make sure the cord is located on the front of both han-
dles as shown in Figure I. If it is not it may result in the cord
tangling and the inability to easily store the mower.
From the outside of the upper handle (3), slide the lever
u
bolt through the holes.
Slide the washer over the bolt of the lever and loosely
u
assemble the entire assembly with the nut.
Rotate the upper handle into its operating position.
u
Close the lever. If it is too tight or too loose, open the lever
u
and the nut to adjust the clamping. Check the levers by
closing them. They should be tight enough so the handles
are held firmly, but loose enough so the levers can be fully
closed. Adjust by opening the lever and turning the nut
until the handles are secured.
Securing the motor cable (fig. I)
Warning: Attach cable so that it does not become stretched or
pinched in the joints of the handles during use or folding. This
can cause damage to the cord.
The motor cable has to be fixed to the handles using the
cable restraints that are already attached to the handle.
To clip the cable to the handle:
Place the handles in operating position, see "Attaching
u
lower handle" section.
Run the cable up the front of the lower and upper handles.
u
Pull back the cable restraint.
u
Slide the motor cable under the clip and ensure it is fully
u
held in place by the restraint.
Bagging
Warning: remove key and battery packs before removing side
discharge attachment and Mulching insert, and when opening
rear door cover and Installing bag.
Ensure the side discharge attachment (26) (Figure M) and
u
the mulching insert (27) (Figure L) are removed from the
mower before bagging.
Lift the rear door cover (9) and place the grass collection
u
bag (8) onto the mower so the bag hooks (28) rest on the
lugs (29) as shown in Figure K. Then lower the rear door
cover.
Mulching
Warning! Remove key and Battery packs before removing
Side discharge attachment and Collection bag, and when
Installing mulching insert.
Ensure the side discharge attachment (26) and the collec-
u
tion bag (8) are not attached.
Lift the rear door cover (9) and slide the mulching insert
u
(27) fully into the mower as shown in Figure L.
Ensure the rear door cover fully closes before turning
u
mower on.
