7.1 BATTERY
7.1.1 Battery power reserve
Battery power reserve (and therefore the movable lawn
surface before recharging is required) mainly depends on:
a. environmental factors that cause
higher energy requirements:
– mowing dense, high and/or wet grass.
b. machine cutting width: the wider the width,
the greater is the energy need.
c. Operator behaviour that should be avoided:
– Switching the machine on and off.
– frequently whilst working.
NOTE During use, the battery is protected against total
drainage with a protective device that switches off the
machine and stops it from working.
To optimise battery power reserve it
is always recommended to:
– Cut the grass when the lawn is dry.
– Cut the grass frequently so that it doesn't grow too tall.
If the need arises to use the machine for sessions which
exceed the capability of a standard battery, it is possible to:
– purchase a second standard battery to immediately
replace the discharged battery, without compromising
the continuity of operations;
– Purchase a battery with an extended power reserve
compared to the standard version.
7.1.2 Battery removal and recharging
1. Open the battery housing hatch and remove the safety
key (Fig.6.A);
2. Press the button on the battery and remove it (Fig.6.B .

(Fig.7)
4. Connect the battery charger to a power socket with the

5. Fully charge the battery according to the instructions in
the battery/battery charger booklet.
NOTE The battery is equipped with a guard that inhibits
recharging if the environmental temperature is not between
0 and +45 °C.
NOTE The battery can be recharged at any time, even
partially, with no risk of damaging it.
7.1.3 Refitting the battery on the machine
When recharging is completed:
1. Remove the battery from its housing in the battery charg-
