Soft-Start
This LI-ION mower is equipped with a "soft-start" feature. When initially starting up, the mower will take approx. 3 seconds
to get up to full speed. If the mower does not initially start: Remove the battery and check under the mower deck to ensure
there is nothing obstructing the blade and that the blade can spin freely by hand. Even a small amount of grass on start up
will prevent the "softstart" from turning the mower on.
