8.
Remove the battery pack and electric-start
button from the machine whenever you leave it
unattended or before changing accessories.
9.
Do not force the machine—Allow the machine to
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
10.
Stay alert—Watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating the machine.
Do not use the machine while ill, tired, or under
the influence of alcohol or drugs.
11.
Do not use a battery-operated lawn mower in
rain.
12.
Operate the machine only in good visibility and
appropriate weather conditions. Do not operate
the machine when there is the risk of lightning.
13.
Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling
the machine toward you.
14.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times,
especially on slopes. Mow across the face
of slopes, never up and down. Use extreme
caution when changing directions on slopes. Do
not mow exceedingly steep slopes. Walk, never
run with the machine.
15.
Do not direct the discharge material toward
anyone. Avoid discharging material against a
wall or obstruction; material may ricochet toward
you. Stop the blade(s) when crossing surfaces
other than grass.
16.
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause you
to lose your balance or footing.
17.
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if
you slip and contact the blade. Do not mow in
wet conditions. Do not mow when it is raining.
18.
If the machine strikes an object or starts to
vibrate, immediately shut off the machine,
remove the electric-start button, remove the
battery pack, and wait for all movement to stop
before examining the machine for damage.
Make all necessary repairs before resuming
operation.
19.
Stop the machine and remove the electric-start
button before loading the machine for hauling.
20.
Under abusive conditions, the battery pack may
eject liquid; avoid contact. If you accidently
come into contact with the liquid, flush with
water. If the liquid contacts your eyes, seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
pack may cause irritation or burns.
IV. Maintenance and Storage
1.
Stop the machine, remove the electric-start
button, remove the battery pack from the
machine, and wait for all movement to stop
before adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing
the machine.
2.
Do not attempt to repair the machine except as
indicated in the instructions. Have an Authorized
Service Dealer perform service on the machine
using identical replacement parts.
3.
Wear gloves and eye protection when servicing
the machine.
4.
Sharpen a dull blade on both edges to maintain
balance. Clean the blade and ensure that it is
balanced.
5.
Replace the blade if it is bent, worn, or cracked.
An unbalanced blade causes vibration, which
could damage the motor or cause personal
injury.
6.
When servicing the blade, be aware that the
blade can still move even though the power
source is off.
7.
Check the grass collection bag frequently for
deterioration or wear, and replace a worn bag
with a Toro [replacement] bag.
8.
For best performance, use only genuine Toro
replacement parts and accessories. Other
replacement parts and accessories could be
dangerous, and such use could void the product
warranty.
9.
Maintain the machine—Keep cutting edges
sharp and clean for the best and safest
performance. Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease. Keep guards in place and in
working order. Keep blades sharp. Use identical
replacement blades only.
10.
Check the machine for damaged parts—If there
are damaged guards or other parts, determine
whether the machine will operate properly.
Check for misaligned and binding moving parts,
broken parts, mounting, and any other condition
that may affect its operation. Unless indicated
in the instructions, have an Authorized Service
Dealer repair or replace a damaged guard or
part.
11.
When the battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from metal objects such as paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, and screws that can make a
connection from 1 terminal to another. Shorting
the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire.
12.
Check the blade and motor mounting bolts
frequently for tightness.
