Mowing
WARNING: Before mowing, clear away sticks and stones from mowing area.
Furthermore, clear away any weeds from mowing area in advance.
WARNING: Always wear the safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when
operating the mower.
CAUTION: If the cut grass or foreign object blocks up inside of the mower body, be
sure to remove the lock key and battery cartridge and wear gloves before removing
the grass or foreign object.
NOTICE: Use this machine for mowing lawn only. Do not mow weeds with this
machine.
Firmly hold the handle with both hands when mowing. The mowing speed guideline is
approximately 1 meter per 4 seconds.
The center lines of the front wheels are guidelines to mowing width. Using the center lines as
guidelines, mow in strips. Overlap by one half to one third the previous strip to mow the lawn
evenly.
Change the mowing direction each time to prevent the grass grain pattern from forming in just
one direction.
Periodically check the grass basket for mowed grass. Empty the grass before it becomes full.
Before every periodical check, be sure to stop the mower then remove the lock key and the
battery cartridge.
NOTE: Using the mower with the grass basket full prevents smooth blade rotation and places
an extra load on the motor, which may cause breakdown.
Do not try to cut long grass all at once. Instead, mow the lawn in steps. Leave a day or two
between mowings until the lawn becomes evenly short.
