When the motor run the revolutions of the motor will drop and you will hear a change in the motor sound.
When this occurs stop mowing, release the switch lever and raise the height of cut.
Failure to do so could damage the machine.
NOTE: The battery packs are protected by a safety cut–out function which is activated when the blade
becomes jammed or if the motor is overloaded. When cut-out occurs, stop mowing and disconnect the lawn
mower from the power supply. Clear any obstruction and wait for a few minutes for the safety cut out switch
to reset before continuing to use the mower. If the mower cuts out again increase the height of cut to reduce
the load on the motor.
NOTE: The temperature of the motor will rise quickly,
if the lawn mower frequently jams. If the motor overheats, the safety cut out switch will operate and will cut
off the power. If this occurs, you will need to disconnect the lawn mower from the power supply and wait
for it to cool down completely. You will need to wait for approximately 1 hour before you can start using the
mower again.
