handle to turn mower off, remove the safety key and
battery pack. Check immediately for cause. Vibration

• For best cutting results, keep blade sharpened
and balanced.
• Inspect and thoroughly clean mower after each use as a
deck with caked grass will degrade performance.
• Always release bail handle to turn mower off, remove
safety key and battery pack when leaving it unattended
even for a short period of time.
The following suggestions will help you
to obtain optimum run time from your
cordless mower:
• Slow down in areas where the grass is especially
long or thick.
• Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain or
dew-soaked.
• Cut your lawn frequently, especially during high
growth periods.
nOTE: It is recommended that your mower be recharged
after use to prolong the battery life. Frequent charging will
not harm your battery, and will ensure that the battery is
fully charged and ready for its next use. Storing battery not
fully charged will shorten battery life.
