assistance workshops and dealers.

8.2 BATTERY

8.2.1 Battery power reserve

The battery autonomy (and
therefore the lawn area
that can be worked before recharging)
is mainly depending on:
A. Working factors, producing a
higher energy consumption (e.g.
cutting thick, high, wet grass).
B. Operator behaviour that should be avoided:
• switching the machine on and off
frequently whilst working;
• setting a cutting height that is too
low for the lawn conditions;
• working at a speed that is too high in relation
to the amount of grass to be removed.
C. Environmental conditions, such as high
environmental temperature exceeding +35°C.
To optimise battery life
it is always advisable:
• to cut the grass when the lawn is dry;
• to cut the grass frequently so
that it doesn't grow too tall;
• to set a higher cutting height when
the grass is very tall, then set a lower
height and cut the lawn again;
• do not use the machine in "mulching"
mode when the grass is very tall;
• to cut the grass at a temperature
ranging between +5 and + 35 °C.

8.2.2 Recharging the battery

The energy needed to operate the machine is
provided by a battery, which requires proper
maintenance to ensure its efficiency and long life.
The machine battery must always be charged:
• Before using the machine for the
first time after purchase.
• When the minimum charge threshold
is reached (fig. 12.F).
• Before leaving the machine inactive
for any extended period of time
• At least once a month when in storage.
• Before starting up the machine after
a prolonged period of inactivity.
WARNING
When the battery is not connected to the
mains via the battery charger, the battery
charge decreases even if the machine is not
being used. If the batteries were to be drained
significantly, they could be severely damaged
to the point of being unusable. The warranty
does not cover damage resulting from a
battery that has not been charged regularly.
