WARNING: Let the mower work at its own pace. Do not overload. Installing and Removing the Battery Packs (Fig. K) DANGER: MAKE CERTAIN THE SAFETY KEY IS REMOVED TO PREVENT ACTUATION BEFORE REMOVING OR INSTALLING BATTERIES. This mower is designed to operate on two battery packs of equal capacity. The mower will not operate on a single battery pack, and if using different capacity battery packs, the smaller capacity battery pack, when depleted, will cause the unit to turn off and the LED in front of the closed battery port cover to blink. Unit will also turn off and the LED will blink if the battery packs reach a high temperature limit, which can be caused by cutting heavy grass. If this occurs, allow the battery packs to cool and then resume cutting with the deck set higher. NOTE: For best results, make sure the battery packs 24 are fully charged. 13
