10 Operator’s Manual
BATTERY INFORMATION
Your tiller/cultivator comes with maintenance free, sealed 58
volt battery.
• Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging process.
The battery pack must be replaced at the latest when its
capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when new. Weakened
cells in an aged battery pack are no longer capable of meeting
the high power requirements needed for the proper operation
of your tiller/cultivator, and therefore pose a safety risk.
• Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to re as this poses
a risk of explosion.
• Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge
will damage the battery cells. The most common cause
of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of
partially discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as
the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the tiller/
cultivator circuit overload protection is tripped. Place the
battery pack in storage only after it has been fully charged.
• Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads
will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside
the battery housing even if this overheating is not apparent
externally.
• Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace batteries that
have been dropped from a height of more than one meter
(about 3 feet) or those that have been exposed to violent
shocks, even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be
undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have
suffered serious damage. In such instances, please read the
waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.
• If the battery pack suffers overloading and overheating, the
integrated circuit overload protection will switch off the tiller/
cultivator for safety reasons.
CAUTION! Do not continue pressing the ON/OFF switch if
the circuit overload protection is tripped. This may damage the
battery pack.
If all LEDs ash, the battery pack has
undergone exhaustive discharge and is
defective. Do not use or charge a defective
battery pack!
The tiller/cultivator should be used only with the
lithium-ion batteries of the Mantis series!
BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR
The battery pack supplied with your cordless tiller/cultivator is only partially

level. Simply press the push button to read off the battery charge level from
the LEDs of the battery indicator (Item B).
• All 4 LEDs are lit: The battery is fully charged and ready for use.
• 3 or 2 LEDs are lit: The battery has an intermediate remaining charge.
• 1 LED blinks: The battery is empty, turn off tiller/cultivator and recharge
the battery immediately. Otherwise the battery’s service life will be
greatly shortened
The battery should be charged in a cool, dry place. To improve battery life, store battery indoors in a controlled climate. Fully
charge battery pack every 3 months. Note that 2 to 3 initial charging/discharging cycles may be required to achieve maximum run
time/capacity.
Allow at least two (2) hours of charge time before initial use of the tiller/cultivator. When fully charged, the battery can be safely
stored for a period of up to one month before requiring charging.
NOTE: If lights do not illuminate when you press the charge level button (Item A) place the battery pack on the charger and charge
as needed.
Use the battery charge indicator lights to determine when to charge your Mantis lithium-ion battery pack.
You can “top-off” your battery pack’s charge before starting a big job or after a long day of use.

• Do not overcharge batteries. Do not
exceed the maximum charging times.
These charging times only apply to
discharged batteries. Always unplug the
charger when there is no battery pack in
it. Do not leave batteries in the plugged
in charger for days on end.
• Never use or charge batteries if you
suspect that it has been more than 12
months since the last time they were
charged. There is a high probability that
the battery pack has already suffered
dangerous damage (exhaustive
discharge).
• Charging batteries at a temperature
below 50°F (10°C) will cause chemical
damage to the cells and may cause a
re.
• Do not use batteries that have been
exposed to heat during the charging
process, as the battery cells may have
suffered dangerous damage.
• Do not use batteries if they are bulging
or deformed during the charging
process or those that exhibit other
atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing,
cracking, etc.).
• Never fully discharge the battery
pack (maximum recommended depth
of discharge is 80%). A complete

tools only in dry conditions and at an
ambient temperature of 50-104°F (10-
40°C).
• Do not keep the battery charger in
places where the temperature is
liable to reach over 104°F (40°C). In
particular, do not leave the battery
charger in a car that is parked in the
sunshine.
• Protect batteries from overheating.
Overloads, overcharging and
exposure to direct sunlight will result in
overheating and cell damage. Never
charge or work with batteries that
have been overheated – replace them
immediately, if possible.
• Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack
from freezing. Battery packs that were
stored below 32°F (0°C) for more than
60 minutes must be discarded.
• When handling batteries, be wary
of electrostatic charge. Electrostatic
discharges can damage the electronic
protection system and the battery cells.
Avoid electrostatic charging and never
touch the battery poles.
Use Mantis charger part number 3505 only with Mantis batteries, other
type of batteries may cause personal injury or damage.

or resistant.
5. Walk the tiller/cultivator backwards through the soil at a normal pace and in as
straight a line as possible.
6. Till in slight overlapping rows. The most effective pattern for tilling soils is
moving the tiller/cultivator up and down in vertical lines, then move the tiller/
cultivator in horizontal lines from left to right (Figure 3). This will keep the rows
even and ensures that all the ground is tilled without missing any spots.
7. Pay special attention when changing direction. Apply light pressure onto the
