Soft-Start
This battery powered mower is equipped with a "soft-start" feature. When initially starting up, the
mower will take approximately 3 seconds to get up to full speed. If the mower does not initially
start: Remove the battery and check under the mower deck to ensure there is nothing obstructing
the blade and that the blade can spin freely by hand. Even a small amount of grass blocking the
mower blade will prevent the mower blade from accelerating and engaging.
C A U T I O N
Do not attempt to override the operation of the safety lock-out button or bail lever.
W A R N I N G
The operation of any mower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the user's eyes, which
can cause severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses while operating the mower and while
performing any adjustments or repairs.
INSPECT THE CUTTING AREA. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, and other debris that
might be thrown by the rotating blades.
