NOTE: Tire pressure should only be measured or ­adjusted when tires are cold. Recommended Pressure 20 psi (137.9 kpa) CHARGING PORT CHARGER PLUG WARNING: Check the tire pressure carefully while inflating. Too much air in the tire could cause the tire to burst, causing serious personal injury. CHARGE THE MOWER See Figure 5. Mower batteries must be charged overnight before first use. To verify mower batteries are fully charged, check the battery level indicator.
