Replacing The Mower Blade; Ordering Replacement Parts - sunjoe iON16LM Manuel De L'opérateur

• When crossing any graveled surfaces, release the switch
bar lever to turn off the mower. The stones can be picked
up and thrown by the rotating blade.
• Set the mower to the highest cutting height when mowing
on uneven ground or in tall weeds.
m
WARNING!
If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor
and remove the safety key. Thoroughly inspect the mower and
repair any damage before resuming work.
• IMPORTANT! Never open the ejector flap when the grass
bag has been detached (to be emptied) and the motor is
still running. A rotating blade can cause serious injuries!
• Always carefully fasten the ejector flap and grass bag.
Switch off the motor before emptying the grass bag.
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the length
of the long handles) is maintained between the user and
the mower housing. Be especially careful when mowing
and changing direction on slopes and inclines.
• Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear
and long trousers. Always mow across an incline
(not up and down).
• For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used to
mow inclines with gradients exceeding 15 degrees.
• Use special caution when backing up and pulling the lawn
mower towards you as such maneuvering of the machine
poses a tripping hazard.

WARNING!
Before cleaning, repairing, inspecting or
carrying out any other maintenance work, ensure that the blade
is not rotating and that the safety key has been disconnected.
Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing
free of dirt and dust as best as possible.
• Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with
compressed air at low pressure.
• Clean the equipment immediately after use with a damp
cloth and some soft, non-abrasive soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or harsh solvents; these may damage
the plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure that no water
penetrates the equipment's interior.
• Do not clean the lawn mower with running water,
particularly with high-pressure water.
• Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
• At the end of the season, perform a general inspection of
the lawn mower and remove any grass, dirt or other debris
that may have accumulated.
• At the start of each season, check the condition of the
mower blade. If repairs are necessary, please call the

Servicing
• Ensure that all mounting components (i.e. screws, bolts,
nuts etc.) are always tightened so that the equipment can
be safely operated at all times.
• Frequently inspect the grass bag assembly for signs of
wear and replace immediately with a genuine Snow Joe
Sun Joe part if damage is found.
®
• Replace excessively worn or damaged parts immediately.
• To maximize your mower's longevity, all screwed parts,
including the wheels and axles, should be cleaned and
lubricated.
• There are no parts inside the equipment which require
additional maintenance or lubrication.

Replacing the Mower Blade

NOTE: The mower blade is sharp and can cause severe
personal injury if handled incorrectly. Wrap the blade or wear
protective gloves, and use extra caution when servicing.
• The cutting components are subjected to more wear and
tear than any other components of the unit. Therefore,
routinely check the condition of the blade and make sure
that it is tightly fastened. If the blade is completely worn,
it must be immediately replaced or resharpened.
• An excessively vibrating mower means that the blade
is not properly balanced or has become deformed from
striking an object. In this case, the blade must be repaired
or replaced.
• For safety reasons, we recommend having the blade
replaced or resharpened by an authorized Snow Joe
Sun Joe service center.
