OPERATION
STARTING/STOPPING THE MOWER
WARNING:
The operation of any lawn mower can
result in foreign objects being thrown into your or others'
eyes, which can damage eyes severely. Always wear safe-
ty glasses while operating the mower or while performing
any adjustments or repairs on the mower.
WARNING:
The blade will continue to rotate for
a few seconds after the mower is turned off. Allow the
motor/blade to stop rotating before starting it again. Do
not rapidly turn the mower off and on.
WARNING:
Stop the blade if the lawnmower has to
be tilted for transportation when crossing surfaces other
than grass and when transporting the lawnmower to and
from the area to be mowed.
WARNING:
Do not tilt the lawn mower when starting
switching on the motor, except if the lawn mower has to
be tilted for starting. In this case, do not tilt it more than
absolutely necessary and lift only the part which is away
from the operator.
Before using, always visually inspect to see that the blade
and blade bolt are not worn or damaged. Replace worn or
damaged blade and bolt in sets to preserve balance.
Check for blockage of the cutting blade
- To prevent blockage, keep the cutting blade and mower
deck clean. Remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt and any
other accumulated debris before and after each use.
- When blockage happens, stop the mower and remove
the battery pack(s), then remove any build-up of grass
and leaves on or around the drive shaft and motor fan
(do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with a damp
cloth.

Do not attempt to override the operation
of the power button and blade rotation trigger.
