of moisture. Then mow it again with the cutting height set
lower.
•
If the machine's forward motion must be stopped
while mowing, a clump of grass clippings may drop onto
your lawn. To avoid this, move onto a previously cut area
with the blades engaged.
•
Charge the battery immediately if the battery power of
the machine is lower than 5%.
•
Allow motors 30 minutes to cool down. If drive motor
exceeds programmed temperature, the motor speed will
decrease. If temperature continues to increase, drive will
shut down at a higher programmed temperature.

SLOPE OPERATION
•
Travel in the manufacturer recommended direction on
slopes. Use caution while operating near drop-offs.
•
Do not operate machine under any condition where
traction, steering, or stability is in question. Tires could
slide even if the wheels are stopped.
•
Always keep the machine in gear when going down
slopes. Do not coast downhill.
•
Use extreme caution when operating on slopes.
•
Do not remove or modify any wheels.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
•
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, garbage etc.
•
Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not
make sudden changes in speed or direction.
•
Avoid starting and stopping on a slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight
down the slope.
•
Mow a safe distance (minimum of 10 feet, or 3 meters)
away from drop-offs, retaining walls, drainage ditches,
embankments, water, and other types of hazards to avoid
a wheel dropping over the edge or the ground breaking
away. This will reduce the risk of the machine suddenly
rolling over, which could cause either serious injury or
death.
English
•
Use a walk-behind, push mower or hand-held trimmer on
slopes and near drop-offs, retaining walls, drainage
ditches, embankments and water.
•
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause
sliding and loss of steering control.
•
Do not tow on slopes. The weight of the towed equipment
may cause loss of traction and control.
•
If the mower's tires lose traction when operating on
slopes, disengage the deck drive, place the steering
control levers in the park brake position, press the push
button switch, remove the magnetic bar and get help.
•
Never make sudden starts, stops, turns, or reverse
direction, especially when maneuvering on slopes. The
steering is designed for sensitive response. Rapid
movement of the steering control levers in either direction
could result in a reaction of the machine that can cause
serious injury.
•
Never stop suddenly while backing down slopes. This
action may result in a reaction of the machine that can
cause serious physical injury.
•
The Greenworks mower is capable of operating
horizontally (traverse) on moderate slopes. When
operating on slopes up to 15 degrees, take care of any
conditions that may cause the mower drive tires to lose
traction, resulting in a possible loss of control of the
machine. An operator should not operate on a slope until
he is thoroughly familiar with the equipment.
Do not operate on slopes greater than 15 degrees.
Refer to Slope Guide, when determining the degree of
slope to be mowed. It is strongly recommended that the
operator drive the machine off of the slope, using extreme
caution, if any sign of loss of traction is detected. Wait
until the condition that caused the problem is resolved
before attempting to operate on the slope again. Terrain
conditions can affect traction, resulting in possible loss of
control of the machine. Some of the conditions to be
aware of are:
1. Wet terrain
2. Depressions in the ground (e.g., holes, ruts, washouts)
3. Mounds of dirt
4. Certain types of soil (e.g., sand, loose dirt, gravel,
clay)
5. Grass type, density, and height
6. Extremely dry conditions
7. Tire pressure
The attachments mounted to the mower will also affect
the way it handles on a slope. Be aware that each
attachment's characteristics vary.
These are just a few examples of situations where caution
must be used when operating on a slope. There are many
other possibilities too numerous to mention. Remember to
always exercise extreme caution while operating on any
slope.
