THE FOLLOWING SUGGESTIONS WILL HELP YOU TO OBTAIN OPTIMUM RUN TIME FROM YOUR CORDLESS MOWER: 1. Slow down in areas where the grass is especially long or thick. 2. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain or dew-soaked. 3. Cut your lawn frequently, especially during high growth periods. NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOUR MOWER BE RECHARGED AFTER USE TO PROLONG THE BATTERY LIFE. FREQUENT CHARGING WILL NOT HARM YOUR BATTERY, AND WILL ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED AND READY FOR ITS NEXT USE. STORING BATTERY NOT FULLY CHARGED WILL SHORTEN BATTERY LIFE. REMOVING AND INSTALLING BLADE DANGER: RISK OF INJURY. WHEN REASSEMBLING THE BLADE SYSTEM, ENSURE EACH PART IS REINSTALLED CORRECTLY, AS DESCRIBED BELOW. IMPROPER ASSEMBLY OF THE BLADE OR OTHER PARTS OF THE BLADE SYSTEM MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. 1. WARNING: RELEASE BAIL HANDLE TO TURN MOWER OFF, WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO STOP, AND REMOVE SAFETY KEY AND BATTERY PACK. 2. Cut a piece of 2x4 wood (31) (about 2 feet long) (610 mm) to keep blade from turning while removing bolt (32). 3. Wear gloves and proper eye protection. Turn the mower on its side. Be careful of sharp edges of blade. Position wood and unscrew bolt with1/2" wrench (33) as shown in Figure W. W 33 31 32 X 34 36 32 35 5. The blade can only be attached to the fan in one direction. To reassemble, line up the D-shaped hole of the blade with the D-shaped post of the fan, ensuring the writing on the blade faces out away from the mower. 6. To tighten firmly, position the piece of wood as shown in Figure Y to keep the blade from turning. Slide the bolt through the washer and screw bolt into place. Tighten with the wrench. Y BLADE SHARPENING KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT GRASS CLEANLY. USE PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE REMOVING, SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING BLADE. ENSURE THAT SAFETY KEY AND BATTERY PACK IS REMOVED. Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is usually sufficient under normal circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be required. REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE IMMEDIATELY. 4. Remove bolt and washer (34). Pull off blade (35) as shown in Figure X. The fan (36) should not be removed. Examine all pieces for damage and replace if necessary. 14
