Mowing your lawn
TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK
See Figure 8.
Raise the battery cover.
Place the battery pack in the mower. Align raised ribs on
battery pack with grooves in the mower's battery port.
WARNING:
Make sure the latches on the battery pack snap in place
and the battery pack are fully seated and secure in

Depress the latches on each side of the battery pack.
Remove battery pack from the mower.
WARNING:
To avoid accidental starting that could result in serious
personal injury, always remove the start key when moving
or transporting the mower.
For complete charging instructions, see the operator's manu-
als for your battery pack and charger.
STARTING/STOPPING THE MOWER
See Figures 9 - 10.
Raise the battery cover.

NOTE: The unit will run with only one battery pack
installed. Operating the unit with one battery pack will
significantly decrease run time.
Insert the start key into the slot beside the battery port.
Lower the battery cover.
Press and hold the start button. Pull the blade control
levers toward the handle and release the button to start
the mower.
To stop the mower, release the blade control levers.
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
accidentally 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 proper bagging or 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 remove the battery pack
from the battery port before cleaning underneath the
mower.
