14. Keep cutting blade sharp and clean – Properly
maintained cutting blades with sharp edges are less likely
to bind and are easier to control.
15. Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting blade
– Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blade is moving. Make sure the switch is off when
clearing jammed material. A moment of inattention while
operating the product may result in serious personal injury.
16. If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow
these steps:
i) Stop the lawn mower by releasing the On/Off buttons.
ii) Remove the batteries and the safety key.
iii) Inspect for damage.
iv) Repair any damage before restarting and operating
the lawn mower.
17. Only use identical replacement blades and
other genuine parts.
18. Keep guards in place and in proper working order.
Electrical Safety
m
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
1. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switches
are in the off-position before connecting to battery
packs, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the
appliance with your finger on the switches or energizing
appliance that have the switches on invites accidents.
2. Disconnect the battery packs from the appliance before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the appliance 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 appliances only with specifically designated 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
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
6. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
7. Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of
injury.
8. Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
9. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery packs or appliance outside of the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the batteries 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 appliance or the
battery packs except as indicated in the instructions for
use and care.
Battery + Charger
Safety Instructions
NOTE: This unit is tool only. The batteries and the charger are
not included. They must be purchased separately.
Model 24V-X2-16LM-CT is compatible with the iON+ 24V
System batteries and chargers. See page 18 for more
information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT! Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor
care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.
m
WARNING!
Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the lawn mower and cause it to
malfunction, which can lead to serious personal injury.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, charge the
iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery packs only in the designated
iON+ 24V lithium-ion charger. Other types of chargers present
risk of fire, personal injury and damage. Do not wire the battery
packs to a power supply plug or car cigarette lighter. Such
misuse will permanently disable or damage the battery packs.
