Servicing the Batteries
Note:
The machine is equipped with at least 11
lithium-ion batteries. Batteries can be added with the
appropriate energy expansion kits for this machine.
A lithium-ion battery must be disposed of or recycled
in accordance with local and federal regulations. If a
battery requires service, contact your authorized Toro
distributor for assistance.
Do not open the battery. If you are having problems
with a battery, contact your authorized Toro distributor
for assistance

Maintaining the Lithium-Ion
Batteries
WARNING
The batteries contain high voltage, which
could burn or shock you.
• Do not attempt to open the batteries.
• Use extreme care when handling a battery
with a cracked case.
• Use only the charger designed for the
batteries.
The lithium-ion batteries hold a sufficient charge to
perform intended work during its life span.
To achieve maximum life and use from your batteries,
follow these guidelines:
•
Do not open the battery.
•
Store/park the machine in a clean, dry garage or
storage area, away from direct sunlight, heat
sources, rain, and wet conditions. Do not store
it in a location where the temperature exceeds the
range specified in
(page
56). Temperatures outside of this range
can damage your batteries. High temperatures
during storage, especially at a high state of charge,
reduces the life of the batteries.
•
When storing the machine for more than 10 days,
ensure that the machine is in a cool and dry
location, out of sunlight, rain, and wet conditions.
•
If you are mowing in hot conditions or in sunlight,
the battery may overheat. If this happens, a
g432905
high-temperature alert will appear on the display.
In this condition, the attachment (e.g., the cutting
unit) is disengaged and the machine slows down.
N
Immediately drive the machine to a cool location
out of the sun, turn off the machine, and allow the
batteries to cool fully before resuming operation.
•
Maintain the sharpness of the mower blades.
A dull blade increases power consumption and
reduces the amount of work that the machine
performs on each charge.
•
Use lights only when it is necessary.
