MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE
ATTENTION: Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or wrapping the cutting
edges with rags or other materials when performing any maintenance on the blades. ALWAYS
remove the battery when servicing or transporting the mower.
REMOVE THE BLADE
While wearing leather padded glov es, wedge a block of wood between the blade and the mower deck in order to
prevent the blade from turning w hen the bolt (1) is being removed.
•
Using an adjustable wrench or 27 mm socket, loosen the bolt (1) and remove the blade (2). Turn the bolt
"COUNTERCLOCK WISE" to loosen it and "CLOCKWISE" to tighten it.
•
Remove the bolt (1) and the blade (2).
•
To re-install the blade, position the blade with the cutting edges toward the ground. Assemble the bolt as shown.
Using a 27 mm socket or wrench, turn the blade nut "CLOCKWISE" in order to secure the blade.
NOTE Be sure to replace the parts in the exact order in which they were removed. When installing
the cutting blade, verify that it is installed with the curved ends pointing toward the mower deck,
and not toward the ground.
CLEANING THE MOWER
ATTENTION: In order to reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water.
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned after each use, because grass clippings, leaves,
dirt, and other debris will accumulate, which will cause rust and corrosion.
Remove any build-up of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water). Occasionally wipe the mower
clean with a dry cloth. If debris builds up on the underside of the mower during use, st op the mo tor, disconnect it from
the battery, and then tilt the mower on itsside, and scrape it clean using an appropriate tool.
