footing could cause a slip and fall accident. Walk, never run.

• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees,

or other objects that may block your view.

• Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects such

as rocks, sticks, wire, bones, toys, or other objects which can

be thrown by the blade. Stay behind the handle when the

motor is running.

• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.

• Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down. Exercise

extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.

• Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material

towards roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also, avoid

discharging material against a wall or obstruction, which may

cause the material to ricochet back toward the operator.

• Do not pull the mower backward unless absolutely necessary.

If you must back the mower away from a wall or obstruction

first look down and behind to avoid tripping.

• Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe

injuries to persons. The lawn should always be carefully

examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.

• If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these steps:

 Stop the lawn mower and release the switch control

bail wire,

 Remove the switch key

comes to a complete stop before removing the grass catcher

or unclogging the chute, The cutting blade continues to rotate

for a few seconds after the motor is shut off. Never place any

part of the body in the blade area until you are sure the blade

has stopped rotating,

• If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the motor

and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a

warning of trouble.

• Service on the product must be performed by qualified repair

personnel only. Service or maintenance performed by

unqualified personnel could result in injury to the user or

damage to the product.

• Use only identical replacement parts when servicing the

product. Use of unauthorized parts may create a risk of

serious injury to the user or damage to the product.

• Replace blade if it is bent or cracked. An unbalanced blade

causes vibration that could damage the motor drive unit or

cause personal injury. Sharpen a dull blade equally at each

end to maintain the balance. Clean the blade thoroughly and

check its balance by supporting it horizontally on a thin nail

through its center hole. The nail should be in a horizontal

position. If either end of the blade rotates downward, remove

some metal from the heavy or lower end until the blade is

balanced. It is balanced when neither end drops.

• The grass bag assembly is subject to deterioration and wear

and should be checked each time the mower is used. If

replacement is needed, make sure the new grass bag meets

original manufacturer’s recommendations and specifications.

• Maintain or replace safety instructions labels, as necessary.

• Store idle lawn mower indoors - When not in use, mower

OPERATION

WARNING: The operation of any mower can result in

foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can

cause severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses

while operating the mower and while performing any

adjustments or repairs.

WARNING: Ensure that other people and pets remain

at least 100 feet (30 m) away when the mower is in

use.

INSPECT THE CUTTING AREA

Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, and other

debris that might be thrown by the rotating blades.

SETTING BLADE HEIGHT

See figure 13

When shipped, the wheels on the mower are set to a

low-cutting position. Before using the mower for the first

time, adjust the cutting position to the height best suited

for your lawn. The average lawn should be between

1-1/2 in. to 2 in. during the cool months and between 2

in. to 3 1/4 in. during the hot months.

The mower can be set to 6 cutting heights between

1.5" (38mm) and 3.75" (95mm). Choose the proper

cutting height according to the types and conditions of

the grass.

To adjust the blade height:

• To raise the blade height, grasp the height

adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the back of

the mower.

• To lower the blade height, grasp the height

adjustment lever (1) and move it toward the front

of the mower.

MOWING TIPS

• Make sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wires

and other objects that could damage the lawn

mower blades or motor. Such objects could be

accidentally thrown by the mower in any direction

and cause serious personal injury to the operator

and others.

• For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less

of the total length of the grass.

• When cutting heavy grass, reduce walking speed

to allow for more effective cutting and a proper

discharge of the clippings.

• Do not cut wet grass. It will stick to the underside

of the deck and prevent proper mulching of grass

clippings.

• New or thick grass may require a narrower cut.

• Clean the underside of the mower deck after each

use to remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt and any

other accumulated debris.

SLOPE OPERATION

See figure 14

WARNING: Slopes are a major factor related to slip

and fall accidents that can result in severe injury.

Operation on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel

uneasy on a slope, do not mow it. For your safety, do

not attempt to mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.

• Mow across the face of slopes, not up and down.

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction

on slopes.

• Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or

bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall

grass can hide obstacles. Remove all objects such

as rocks, tree limbs, etc., which could be tripped

over or thrown by the blade.

• Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can

cause serious personal injury. If you feel you are

losing your balance, release the switch control bail

wire immediately.

• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or

embankments; you could lose your footing or

balance.

MULCHING TIPS

NOTE: Inspect the area where the mower is to be used,

and remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, and other

debris that might be thrown by the rotating blade.

• Release the bail lever to turn the mower OFF when

crossing any graveled area (stones can be thrown

by the blade).

• Set mower to the highest cutting height when

mowing on uneven ground or in tall weeds.

• For eﬀective mulching, do not cut wet grass,

because it tends to stick to the underside of the

deck, preventing proper mulching of grass

clippings. New or thick grass may require a

narrower cut. The ground speed should be adjusted

to the condition of the lawn.

• Walk at a steady pace. Overlap the cutting rows. Do

not let the grass get too tall. If the grass gets too

long, start at the highest cutting position and work

down to the desired cutting height.

WARNING: If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor

and remove the battery. Thoroughly inspect the mower

for any damage. Repair any damage before operating

the mower. Excessive vibration of the mower during

operation is an indication of damage. Thoroughly

inspect the mower and repair any damage before

operating the mower.

OPERATION

EMPTYING THE GRASS CATCHER

SHARPENING THE BLADE

See Figure 17

For best mowing performance, the mower blade must

be kept sharp. A dull blade does not cut grass evenly

and overloads the motor. Under normal circumstances,

sharpening the blade twice during the mowing season

is usually sufficient. However, if your lawn has sandy

soil, more frequent sharpening's may be required.

• Following the instructions in the Replacing the

Cutting Blade section, remove the mower blade.

DO NOT attempt to sharpen the blade while it is

attached to the mower.

• Using a fine tooth file or stone, sharpen cutting

edges on both ends of the blade, removing equal

amounts of material from both ends.

BALANCING THE BLADE

See Figure 18

When sharpening, care should be taken to keep the

blade balanced. An unbalanced blade will cause

excessive vibration when the mower is running. This

vibration will eventually cause damage to the mower,

especially the motor.

To check blade balance:

• Clamp a screwdriver horizontally in a vise as

shown.

NOTE: If a vise is not available, a straight nail can also

be used.

• Place the center hole of blade on the screwdriver

(or nail) shank.

WARNING:

When removing, inspect the blade carefully. If blade is bent

or damaged, replace immediately with a new blade. Failure

to replace a bent or damaged blade could cause an accident

resulting in possible serious injury.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE

It is recommended to charge the mower every 3

months for optimum performance when not in use. If

the battery has been in storage for a long time without

recharging, it will be in a low charge state.

MAINTENANCE

• If blade is balanced, it will remain in a horizontal

position. If either end of the blade drops downward,

sharpen the heavy side until the blade is balanced.

REPLACING WHEELS

See Figure 19

To Replace a wheel:

• Stop the motor and remove the switch key.

Remove battery from the battery compartment.

• Turn the mower on its side.

• Using a flat blade screwdriver, pry off the hubcap

(1).

• Remove the self-locking nut (2) from the wheel axle

(3), then remove the wheel (4).

• Replace with new wheel and install new

self-locking nut (2) securely.

• Replace hubcap (1).
