VARIABLE-SPEED SELF-PROPEL SYSTEM

propel capability. This system is independent of the blade
On-Off switch. it is not dependent on blade rotation.
For example, when you have completed cutting your lawn,
you can use the self-propel to propel the mower back to
your storage location without blade rotation. Or you may
choose to operate the mower as a non-selfpropelled mower
to maximize battery running time.
To operate the self-propel system without blade rotation,
turn the self-propel speed-control knob on, press the
self-propel trigger(s).There are two self-propel triggers.
Press either trigger to start the self-propel function (Fig. O).
To turn the self-propel off, release the self-propel trigger,
turn the self-propel speed-control knob off.
MOWER-STATUS INDICATOR ON THE MOWER
(Fig. P)
The mower is equipped with a power indicator to indicate
the charge status of the battery pack and the working
status of the mower. The power indicator will illuminate
when the blade is rotating or when the LED headlights are
turned on.
