MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE MOWER
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water.
WARNING
Do not at any time make any maintenance to the lawn mower without first stopping the motor and
removing the safety key and battery packs.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and
other debris will accumulate causing rust and corrosion.
• Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water). Wipe the
mower clean with a dry cloth occasionally.
• If debris build up on the underside of the unit while in use, stop the motor and remove the safety key
and battery packs. Tilt the mower forward, or on its side, and clean.
BATTERY PACK MAINTENANCE
1. Fully charge the batteries before placing in storage.
2. Recharge the battery packs whenever there is a noticeable reduction in the performance. Do not
allow the battery packs to become completely discharged.
3. Do not recharge a battery pack that is already fully charged. Overcharging shortens battery life.
4. Once the battery packs are fully charged, remove them from the charger and disconnect charger
from the outlet.
5. Do not store the battery packs on the tool or on the charger.
6. If the battery pack is hot, allow it to cool down before recharging.
CHARGER MAINTENANCE
1. Keep the charger clean and clear of debris. Do not allow foreign material into the recessed cavity or
on the contacts. Wipe with a dry cloth. Do not use solvents, water, or place in wet conditions.
2. Always unplug the charger when the battery packs are not installed on the charger.
3. Do not store the charger in excessive heat. Do not use in direct sunlight.
4. Disconnect the charger from the AC power outlet when not in use and once batteries have reached
a full charge.
