Maintenance and storage
1. Store Idle Lawn Mower Indoors - When not in
use, lawn mower should be stored in an indoor dry
and locked-up place - out of reach of children.

edges sharp and clean for best and safest per-
formance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Inspect lawn mower cord
periodically and if damaged, have it repaired by
an authorized service facility. Keep handles dry,
clean, and free from oil and grease.

debris build up. Keep guards in place and in
working order.

grass basket is empty. Replace a worn grass bas-
ket with a new factory replacement one for safety.
7. Check grass basket components and the
discharge guard frequently and replace with
manufacturer's recommended parts, when
necessary.

intervals for proper tightness.
9. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to
be sure the equipment is in safe working

Battery tool use and care
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
1.
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to battery pack, picking up or carrying the
machine. Carrying the machine with your finger
on the switch or energizing machine that have the
switch on invites accidents.
2. Disconnect the battery pack from the machine
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing machine. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
machine accidentally.
3. Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
4. Use machines only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
5. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
6. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
7. Do not use a battery pack or machine that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
8. Do not expose a battery pack or machine to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire
or temperature above 130°C (265°F) may cause
explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not
9.
charge the battery pack or machine outside of
the temperature range specified in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside of the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
10. Have servicing performed by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the product is
maintained.
11. Do not modify or attempt to repair the machine
or the battery pack except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
