■ Replace worn or damaged parts.
■ Do not leave the battery in the mower in direct sunlight.
■ Do not force the machine. It will do the job better and
safer at the speed for which it was designed.
■ Do not overload your mower. Mowing long thick grass
may cause the motor speed to drop, or the power to
cut out. When mowing in long thick grass a first cut
with the cutting height set higher will help reduce the
load.
■ Stop the blade when crossing gravel surfaces.
■ Do not pull the mower backward unless absolutely
necessary. If you must back the machine away from a
wall or obstruction, first look down and behind to avoid
tripping or pulling the machine over your feet.
■ Stop the blade(s) if the machine has to be tilted for
transportation when crossing surfaces other than
grass, and when transporting the machine to and from
the area to be mowed.
■ Never operate the machine with defective guards
or shields, or without safety devices, for example,
deflectors and/or grassboxes, in place.
■ Switch on the motor according to instructions and
keep hands and feet away from cutting area.
■ Never pick up or carry a lawnmower while the engine
is running.
■ Remove isolator key for the below cases:
● whenever you leave the machine
● before cleaning a blockage
● before checking, cleaning or working on the
machine
● after striking a foreign object; inspect the appliance
for damage and make repairs as necessary
● before clearing the grassbox
● if the machine starts to vibrate abnormally (check
immediately)
● when not in use and storing the machine
● when recharging and removing/inserting battery
pack
■ Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, property stakes, or
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a
slip and fall accident.
■ If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally,
stop the motor and check immediately for the cause.
Replace the blade if it is unevenly worn or damaged in
any way. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
■ If the machine strikes a foreign object, follow these
steps:
● Stop the machine by releasing the power lever,
wait until the blade comes to a complete stop, and
then remove isolator key.

● Thoroughly inspect the machine for any damage.
● Replace the blade if it is damaged in any way.
Repair any damage
continuing to operate the mower.
● Use the right appliance. Do not use the machine
for any job except that for which it is intended.
■ When not in use, mower should be stored in a
wellventilated, dry, locked up place-out of the reach
of children. The isolator key should also be removed.
■ Do not expose machine to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a garden tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
■ Follow manufacturer's instructions for proper operation
and installation of accessories. Only use accessories
approved by the manufacturer.
■ Be careful during adjustment of the machine to prevent
entrapment of the fingers between moving blades and
fixed parts of the machine.
■ Always allow the machine to cool down before storing.
■ When servicing the blades be aware that, even though
the power source is switched off, the blades can still
be moved.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
■ Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. Using a charger with an incompatible
battery pack may create a risk of fire.
■ Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
■ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like, paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
■ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
