Adjusting the cutting height
WARNING! Stop, release
operating bail and wait until the
motor stops before adjusting height.
The blades continue to rotate after
the machine is switched off, a
rotating blade can cause injury. Do
not touch rotating blades.

BATTERY STATUS (See Fig. I)
• Before starting or after use, press the button
beside the power indicator light on the machine to
check the battery capacity.
• During operation, the battery capacity will be
indicated automatically by the battery power
indicator. The indicator constantly senses and
displays the battery condition as follows.
• When charging 2 different amp hour batteries, the
power indicator light displays the battery condition
with the lower one of the two batteries.

Battery condition
The two batteries are in a
highly charged condition.
The two batteries have a
remaining charge. The more
lights are illuminated, the
more battery capacity.
The battery level of at least
one battery pack is very low.
Please check and charge the
battery pack.
At least one battery is not fully
installed or battery may be
defective.
At least one battery is over
discharged (please refer to
the battery charge condi-
tion), please recharge the two
batteries at once before use
again or storage.
At least one battery is hot,
wait for them cool down
before start again.
The machine is over load.

the grass clippings into small pieces and distribute
them back into the lawn, using mulching fins
located inside the mower deck.
Under normal conditions, the mulched grass will
biodegrade quickly to provide nutrients to the lawn.
Please review the following recommendations for
optimum mulching performance,
1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain
or dew. Wet grass may form clumps which
interfere with the mulching action and reduce
runtime. The best time to mow grass is in the
late afternoon when the grass is dry and the
newly cut area will not be exposed to direct
sunlight.
2) For best mulching performance, set the cutting
height to remove about one third of the grass
blade length, ideally no more than 1.5" at
one time. If the lawn is overgrown, it may be
necessary to increase the cut height to reduce
the pushing effort and prevent overloading
the motor. For extremely heavy mulching, it is
advisable to first cut at a high cut height setting,
and then re-cut to the final cut height. Otherwise,
make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
3) For best performance, keep the mower deck free
of built-up grass. From time to time turn mower
off, remove batteries and wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop. Turn mower on its
side. Using an object such as a stick, wipe out
any accumulation of grass in the blade area. Be
careful of the sharp edges of the blade. Clean
often in wet, new grass, and always after every
use.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions may
require that an area be mulched a second time
to fully disperse the grass throughout the lawn.
If cutting a second time, it is advisable to cut
perpendicular (across) the first cut pattern.
DO NOT CHANGE CUT PATTERN IN ANY WAY
THAT WOULD CAUSE MOWING DOWN A HILL.
5) Change your cutting pattern from week to week.
This will help prevent matting and graining of
the lawn.
CUTTING AREA
The cutting area can be affected by many factors
including: cutting height, operation practices (ex:
starting/stopping), lawn moisture levels, grass
length and thickness.
TIPS:
1) Mowing the lawn frequently and reducing the
amount of starting/stopping procedures will help
conserve battery runtime. It is recommended to
always use the same two batteries during operation
with fully charged levels.
2) For the best cutting performance, it is
recommended to only mow up to 1/3 or less of the
current grass height at a time. Mow at a slower
