STARTING / STOPPING THE MOWER
See Figures 10 - 11.
 Raise the battery cover.
 Slide power selection switch to the power source you
intend to use.
 Install battery packs or connect to power supply.
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 acci-
dentally 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, remove the battery packs from
the battery ports, and disconnect power supply before
cleaning underneath the mower.
OPERATION

SLOPE OPERATION

See Figure 12.
WARNING:
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents
that can result in severe injury. Operation on slopes
requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do
not mow it. For your safety, do not attempt to mow slopes
greater than 15 degrees.
 Mow across the face of slopes, not up and down. Exercise
extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
 Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps
which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide
obstacles. Remove all objects such as rocks, tree limbs,
etc., which could be tripped over or thrown by the blade.
 Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause
serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing your bal-
ance, release the upper blade control lever immediately.
 Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments;
you could lose your footing or balance.

EMPTYING THE GRASS CATCHER

See Figure 13.
 Stop the mower and allow blades to completely stop.
 Open battery cover.
 Remove start key, battery packs, and disconnect power
supply.
 Lift the rear discharge door.
 Lift the grass catcher by its handle to remove from mower.
 Empty grass clippings.
 Lift the rear discharge door and reinstall the grass catcher
as described earlier in this manual.
 Reinstall start key and battery packs or connect to the
power supply when you are ready to mow.
