FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

■ Should the mower remain plugged into the charger when
not in use?
– No, disconnect the product from the charger when it
is fully charged.
■ What is the recommended tyre pressure, and how often
should tyre pressure be checked?
– For best performance, the tyre pressure should be
1.0 bar (14.5 psi) for the front tyres and 1.52 bar (22
psi) for the rear tyres. Check the tyre pressure before
each use.
■ Can I use only 36 V battery packs to power the product?
– No, the product is designed to run on 80 V. At
least one 80 V battery pack is required to operate
the product. 36 V battery packs are designed as
boosters or an extension to the energy storage which
increases the overall runtime.
■ Can I charge my 36 V battery packs in the product?
– Yes. The product will charge the 80 V battery packs
in parallel with the fast charger at 14 A. While the 80
V battery packs are being charged, any compatible
36 V battery packs are charged in parallel.
■ What can cause the mower not to move?
– The product has a safety seat switch that must be
connected as part of the assembly procedure. Follow
the assembly procedures and ensure that the seat
switch is actively engaged.
– The Intelligent Drive System joystick may be pushed
down in its locked neutral position. Pull up the
joystick to engage directional movement. Check the
LCD dashboard if the joystick is locked in the neutral
(N) position (refer to page 8).
– If the foot brake is used for an emergency stop,
the intelligent drive system joystick may need to
be reset to engage directional movement. To reset
the joystick control, push down the joystick into the
locked neutral position and pull it back up into the
engaged neutral position. You will hear 2 beeps if
joystick is reset correctly.
■ What can cause the blades to stop during use?
– Check the battery level indicator. The deck motor
turns off when the battery power gets low to allow you
enough time to drive back to the charging location.
Drive back and charge the battery immediately.
– If the battery level is not low, slow down or raise the
cutting deck to a higher level. High load applications
can also cause one or both deck motors to stop.
– Check that the side discharge chute is properly
closed. Push down the side discharge chute, and
make sure that it fully presses the side discharge
interlock switch.
■ When coasting downhill, why does the mower sometimes
accelerate and sometimes does not?
– For your safety and better performance, the mower
is designed to automatically limit its speed when
travelling on a slope, which may cause fluctuations
in speed.
■ Why does the mower make a beeping sound when I
drive in reverse?
– To alert anyone nearby of the mower's location.
■ When operating the mower, how do I bring the mower to
a complete stop?
– To stop the mower, step on the brake pedal in front of
the operator. This product is not a hydrostatic drive.
■ Why does the mower make a beeping sound when I
leave the seat?
– The parking brake has not been engaged or the start
key is still installed and in the ON position. Always
remove the key when the mower is not in use.
■ When should I use the parking brake?
– Always engage the parking brake before getting off
the mower.
■ Can I rinse off the mower deck with a garden hose?
– Do not clean the product with water. Use a blower or
air compressor to clean it.
■ Will my ride-on mower be able to pair if it is not on with
the LCD active?

BLUETOOTH enabled device.
■ How do I know if my ride-on mower is connected to my
phone?
– When your ride-on mower is successfully paired with
your device, the app will remember your connection
and show it active within the home screen of the app.
It will display information such as total run time.
