IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Stop the motor, set the parking brake, wait until the
blades come to a complete stop, and remove start key
before unclogging the side discharge chute or opening.
The cutting blades continue to rotate for a few seconds
after the motor is shut off. Never place any part of the
body in the blade area until you are sure the blades have
stopped rotating.
If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the
motor and check immediately for the cause. Replace the
blades if they are unevenly worn or damaged in any way.
Vibration is generally a sign of a damaged mower blade.
Disengage mower blades when not mowing.
Service on the product and charger must be performed
by qualified repair personnel only. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could result in injury
to the user or damage to the product.
Use only authorized replacement parts when servicing
the product. Use identical replacement blades only. Use
of unauthorized parts may create a risk of serious injury
to the user or damage to the product.
Maintain or replace safety instructions labels, as necessary.
Remove start key — Remove start key from the mower
before storing, servicing, or changing accessories such
as blades. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the mower accidentally.
Stop the unit and remove the start key when not in use.
Transport the unit with the motor stopped and the start
key removed from the mower.
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an electrical
outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition.
Be aware of possible hazards when not using your battery
tool or when changing accessories. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal
injury.
Do not use battery-operated mower in rain.
Remove the start key before servicing, cleaning, or
removing material from the gardening appliance.
Store idle lawn mower indoors — When not in use, mower
should be stored indoors in a dry, locked place out of the
reach of children. The start key should also be removed
and stored in a separate location out of the reach of
children.
Follow instructions for changing accessories.
Only allow responsible adults, who are trained, familiar
with and understand the instructions, and are physically
capable to operate this machine.
Never carry passengers.
Never operate machine in a closed area.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.
Always look down and behind before and while backing.
Slow down before turning.
Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.
Mowers with rear-wheel drive require more traction than
front-wheel-drive mowers. Use extreme caution when
mowing on slopes or when crossing wet surfaces to
prevent possible tipover.
While mowing, keep a distance of at least 7 feet from
drop-offs, embankments, water, and marsh-like surfaces.
Use extra care when loading or unloading the machine into
a trailer; press the low speed drive button and carefully
move the drive levers as needed to control the speed.
Always back onto the trailer when loading. When loading
or unloading the mower, do not exceed the maximum
recommended operation angle of 15°.
Use full width ramps for loading and unloading a machine
for transport.
Data indicates operators age 60 years and above are
involved in a large percentage of riding mower related
injuries. These operators should evaluate their ability
to operate the riding mower safely enough to protect
themselves and others from serious injury.
Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build
up. Allow machine to cool before storing.
Do not spray with a garden hose to clean, as it may dam-
age the battery and/or electronic components and result
in a short circuit or fire. Use an air moving device, such
as a compressor or leaf blower to clean the mower.
The bagger assembly (if equipped) is subject to deterio-
ration and wear and should be checked each time the
mower is used. If replacement is needed, make sure the
new bagger meets original manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions and specifications.
ADDITIONAL
SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERIES
Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte
is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin.
It may be toxic if swallowed.
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The batteries
could explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
Keep all metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects away from the battery
and battery terminals that can make a connection from
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause serious burns or a fire.
Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the
battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause burns.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, bat-
tery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with
your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If
liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water
for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical
attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of seri-
ous personal injury.
