not toward the ground.

Cleaning The Mower

WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water. The underside of the mower deck should be
cleaned after each use, because grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and other debris will accumulate, which will cause rust and
corrosion.
• Remove any build-up of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water). Occasionally wipe the
mower clean with a dry cloth. If debris builds up on the underside of the mower during use, stop the motor, disconnect it
from the battery, and then tilt the mower on its side, and scrape it clean using an appropriate tool.

Service and Adjustments

• Identical replacement parts that are available from the manufacturer. When ordering replacement parts, remember
the use of parts that do not meet the original equipment specifications may lead to improper performance, and may
compromise safety and warranty.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the blade and all moving parts have come to a complete stop.
