SAFETY INFORMATION
PROPER BATTERY CARE
Off-season storage
To obtain the longest possible battery life, the following steps are suggested:
• Remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully charged and ready for use.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
• Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 80°F and away from moisture.
• Store battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition.
• Every two months of storage charge the pack as normal.
CHARGER SAFETY RULES
• Charge the mower battery in a dry area that is protected from the weather. Do not expose the
mower or the charger to rain. Do not charge the battery in a wet location. Operate the battery
charger in temperatures between 43°F and 104°F. In order to reduce the risk of electric shock, use
only the charger that is provided by the manufacturer to charge the battery.
• Do not misuse the charger cord. Never carry the charger by the cord. Do not disconnect the
charger from the outlet by pulling the charger cord.
• Do not use a damaged charger. Replace the charger cords or the charger immediately.
• Keep the mower and the charger away from water, heat sources (radiators, heaters, stoves, etc.),
flames, and chemicals.
• Make sure the battery pack is secured in the charger before beginning operation.
• The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem.
• Do not place the charger and battery pack in an area of extreme heat or cold. They will work best
at normal room temperature.
• When batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger from the power supply and remove the
battery pack.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the
temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of
the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
WARNING
When transporting or servicing unit, always remove the battery.
WARNING (PROPOSITION 65)
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure to these chemicals varies depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
