• Before cleaning the mower, unclogging or removing
the grass bag, mulching insert, or side discharge
chute, turn the motor off and wait until the blade
comes to a complete stop, then remove the battery

cells could catch fire or explode. Check with local
codes and waste management for proper disposal
instructions.
• 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.

SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall
accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation
on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on
a slope, do not mow it.
Do:
• Mow across the face of slopes; never mow up
and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.
• Watch for holes, roots, rocks, hidden objects, or
bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass
can hide obstacles. Remove all obstacles such as
rocks and tree limbs.
• Make sure that your footing is stable. If you are out
of balance, release the switch immediately.
Do not:
• Mow excessively steep slopes.
• Mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you
could lose your footing or balance.
• Mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
• Mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause
slipping.
Do not mow on the slopes with incline more than
15°. If you are not comfortable, do not mow on a
slope.
