lawn. Please review the following recommendations for
optimum mulching performance.
1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain or dew.
Wet grass may form clumps which interfere with the
mulching action and reduce the runtime. The best time
to mow the grass is in the late afternoon when the grass
is dry and the newly cut area will not be exposed to
direct sunlight.
2) For the best mulching performance, set the cutting
height to remove about one third of the grass blade
length, ideally no more than 1-1/2'' (40mm) at one
time. If the lawn is overgrown, it may be necessary
to increase the cutting height to reduce the pushing
effort and prevent overloading the motor. For extremely
heavy mulching, it is advisable to first cut at a high cut
height setting, and then re-cut to the final cut height.
Otherwise, make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
3) For the best performance, keep the mower housing free
of built-up grass. From time to time turn off mower and
wait for the blades to come to a complete stop. Then
turn mower on its side. Using an object such as a stick,
wipe out any accumulation of grass around the blade
area. Be careful of the sharp edges of the blade. Ensure
to clean the blade area often when cutting wet or new
grass and every time after the machine is used.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions may require
that an area be mulched a second time to fully disperse
the grass throughout the lawn. If cutting a second time,
it is advisable to cut perpendicular (across) the first cut
pattern. DO NOT CHANGE CUT PATTERN IN ANY WAY
THAT WOULD CAUSE MOWING DOWN A HILL.
5) Change your cutting pattern from week to week. This

will help prevent matting and graining of the lawn.
6) Do not mow on a slope that has an angle of greater
than 15 .

CUTTING AREA
The cutting area can be affected by several factors, such
as cutting height, lawn humidity, grass length and density.
Besides, starting and stopping the mower too many times
during operation will reduce the cutting area.
The table below gives the relationship between cutting
conditions and cutting area.
Cutting Height
Cutting off 3-1/8'' (8cm) to
2-3/8'' (6cm)
* Used with 4 fully charged battery packs. If batteries of
differing amp hours are used together, the product will
operate to the lowest common denominator.
TIPS:
1) It is recommended to mow your lawn more frequently,
walk at normal pace, and not to start/stop the mower
too often during operation.
2) For best performance, please ensure use 4 fully
charged battery packs at the same time and always cut

off 1/3 or less of the grass height.
3) Walk slowly when cutting long grass, so as to have more
effective cutting and properly discharge the clippings.
4) Avoid cutting wet grass, otherwise it will stick to the
underside of the deck and the clippings cannot be
collected or discharged properly.
5) A higher cutting height shall be applied to new or thick
grass and it will extend the battery duration.
STORAGE (SEE FIG. O1, O2)
Stop the mower, and always remove the batteries. Clean
the exterior of the machine thoroughly using a soft brush
and cloth. Do not use water, solvents or polishes. Remove all
grass and debris, especially from the ventilation slots.
Turn the machine on its side and clean the blade area. If
grass cuttings are compacted in the blade area, remove with
a wooden or plastic implement.
Store the machine in a dry place. Do not place other objects
on top of the machine.
To aid storage, Press and hold Quick-release button, and fold
the Handle bar.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Stop the mower, remove the batteries
before removing the grass collection bag.
NOTE: To ensure long and reliable service, perform the fol-
lowing maintenance procedures regularly. Check for obvious
defects such as a loose, dislodged or a damaged blade, loose
fittings, and worn or damaged components. Check that
the covers and guards are all undamaged and are correctly
attached to mower. Carry out any necessary maintenance or
repairs before operating mower. If the mower should happen
to fail despite regular maintenance, please call our customer
helpline for advice.
BLADE SHARPENING
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A
DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH
PROPERLY.
WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE REMOVING, SHARP-
ENING, AND INSTALLING BLADE. ENSURE THAT BATTERIES
ARE REMOVED.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is
usually sufficient under normal circumstances. Sand causes
the blade to dull quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more
frequent sharpening may be required.
REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE IMMEDIATELY.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE (See Fig. P)
1. Make sure blade remains balanced.
2. Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.
3. Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade to keep it
balanced, removing equal amounts of material from both
ends.
NOTE:
1. Be sure the mower is turned off . Remove the key and
batteries.
2. Place the mower in stand up storage mode.
