OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Starting/Stopping the mower
a. To start the mower:
• Raise the battery door.
• Install battery.
• Close the battery door.
• Press and hold the safety lock-out button (C).
• Pull the bail lever (B) upward to the handle to
start the mower and release the safety lock-out
button.
b. To stop the mower:
• Release the bail lever.
2. Soft-Start
This LI-ION mower is equipped with a "soft-start" feature. When initially starting up, the mower will
take approx. 3 seconds to get up to full speed. If the mower does not initially start: Remove the bat-
tery 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 on start up will prevent the "soft start"
from turning the mower on.
WARNING
Do not attempt to override the operation of the safety lock-out button or bail lever.
