OPERATION
Mowing
WARNING:
•
Before mowing, clear away sticks and stones
from mowing area. Furthermore, clear away any
weeds from mowing area in advance.
•
Always wear the safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields when operating the
mower.
Firmly hold the lawn mower handle with both hands
when mowing.
The width between the middle of the front wheels shows
the guideline of the mowing range. For even mowing,
overlap the mowing area partially to the previous
mowed area.
Periodically check the level of the grass basket, and
empty before it becomes full. Before every periodical
check, be sure to stop the mower and remove the lock
key and the battery cartridge.
NOTE:
•
Using the lawn mower with the grass basket
full prevents smooth blade rotation and places
an extra load on the motor, which may cause
breakdown.
Mowing a long-grass lawn
►
Fig.23
Do not try to cut long grass all in one go. Instead, mow
the lawn in stages, leaving it for a day or two between
mows, until the lawn is evenly short.
NOTE:
•
Mowing long grass to a short length all in one go
may cause the grass to die and/or block up the
inside of the main unit.
