Disposal
The disposal instructions are based on the icons placed on the appliance or its package.
Any damaged or disposed devices must be delivered to appropriate collection centres.
Dispose of the batteries in an environmentally friendly manner.
Li-ion batteries are subject to the special disposal obligation. Have any defective batteries disposed of by a specialised shop. The battery must be taken out before the appliance is scrapped. Damaged batteries may harm the environment and your health if toxic vapours or liquids leak out of such batteries. Therefore, never send a defective battery by post, etc. Please contact your local recycling centre.
Dispose of the batteries when discharged. We recommend applying an adhesive tape on the poles to protect them against short circuit. Never open the battery.

Transport packaging disposal The packaging protects the machine against damage during transport. Packaging materials are usually chosen based on environment aspects and waste treatment principles and are therefore recyclable. Re­turning the packaging into material circulation saves raw materials and reduces waste production. Parts of packagings (e.g. foils, styropor®) can be dangerous for children.
Keep parts of the packagings out of reach of children and dispose them as soon as possible.

WARNING: Do not mow a slope that has an angle of more than 15° (a rise of approximately 2 1/2 ft. (75 m) every
10 ft. (3 m)). Mow across the face of a slope, never up and down.
MOWING TIPS
NOTE:A sharp blade will greatly enhance the performance of the mower, especially when cutting high grass.
Be sure to check the blade and to sharpen it at least once per year, as described in the Maintenance section.
• Verify that the lawn is free of any stones, sticks, wires, and other objects that could damage the blades or the motor.
These objects could be accidentally thrown by the mower in any direction, and could cause serious personal injury to the operator and to others.
• In order to prevent electric shock, do not operate the mower in damp or wet conditions.
• Do not mow in circles. Travel back and forth across the lawn.
• When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the
clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1-1/2 to 2 in. (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and more than 2 in. (5 cm) long during hot months. If there is growth, the lawn should be cut in the fall.
MULCHING TIPS
NOTE:INSPECT THE AREAWHERE THE MOWER IS TO BE USED, AND REMOVE ALLSTONES, STICKS, WIRES, AND
OTHER DEBRIS THAT MIGHT BE THROWN BY THE ROTATING BLADE.
1. Release the switch to turn the mower OFF when crossing any graveled area (stones can be thrown by the
blade).
2. Set mower to the highest cutting height when mowing on uneven ground or in tall grass.
3. 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. If mowing hasbeen delayed and the grass has been allowed to grow longer than 4 in. (10 cm), mow the lawn twice in order to reduce the grass height to a maximum of 3-1/4 in. (8.3 cm).
4. 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 disconnect the power cord.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.
Using a 15-mm wrench or socket, turn the blade nut "CLOCKWISE” to secure the blade.
CUTTING BLADE REPLACEMENT (See Fig. 9 & Fig. 10)
WARNING: Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or wrapping the cutting edges with
rags or other materials when performing any maintenance on the blades.
1. RELEASE THE SWITCH LEVER TOTURN THE MOWER OFF, WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO COME TOA COMPLETE STOP,AND THEN REMOVE THE BATTERY.
2. Whilewearing leather padded gloves,wedge a block ofwood between the bladeand the mower deckin order to prevent the blade from turning when the nut is being removed.
3. Using a 15-mm wrench or socket, loosen the blade nut (1) and remove the blade (3). Turn the nut
"COUNTERCLOCKWISE" to loosen it and "CLOCKWISE" to tighten it (this is a reverse rotation nut).
4. Remove the blade nut (1), the square washer (2), the insulator washer (3), and the blade.
5. To re-install the blade, position the blade with the cutting edges toward the ground. Assemble the blade nut, the square washer, and the insulator washer as shown in following. Using a 15-mm wrench or socket, turn
the blade nut "CLOCKWISE” to secure the blade.

NOTE: Be sure to replace the parts in the exact order in which they were removed. When installing the cutting blade,
verify that it is installed with the curved ends pointing toward the mower deck.
CLEANING THE MOWER
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock and damage to the mower, do not expose the mower to water.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and other debris will accumulate, causing rust and corrosion. Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with a dry cloth occasionally.
• If debris build up on the underside of the unit while using,stop the motor and REMOVE THE SAFETY KEY. Tiltthe
mower forward, or on its side, and scrape it clean with an appropriate tool.
STORAGE
The following steps should be taken to prepare the lawn mower for storage.
• Remove Safety Key.
• Clean mower as instructed in previous section.
• Inspect and replace/sharpen blade, if required. Refer to the Maintenance section.
• Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and rock salt.
• Storemower indoors, in a cool,dryplace, out of the reachof children. Do not coverlawn mower with a solidplasticsheet.
Plastic coverings trap moisture around the mower, causing corrosion. The handle may be folded away completely for storage.
• Loosen the handle knobs on the sides of the handle, and fold the upper handle down.
• Loosen the handle knobs, pull outwards on each side of the lower handle, and lift the sides of the lower handle past the
edges of the handle mounting brackets. Fold the lower handle forward. Make sure not to bend or kink the power cord.
