GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS,
INSTRUCTIONS, ILLUSTRATIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS
PROVIDED WITH THIS POWER TOOL. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re
and/or serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
◾ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
◾ Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, petrols or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾ Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
◾ Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock.
◾ Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
◾ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾ Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾ When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
◾ If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
◾ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
◾ Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
◾ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energising power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
◾ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
◾ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
◾ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
◾ If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
◾ Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.

tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
◾ Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
◾ Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
◾ Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
◾ Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
◾ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
◾ Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
◾ Recharge only with the charger specied by the

the protection circuit will immediately turn off the mower to
protect the battery pack from damage. The power indicator
on the mower will shine orange and the LED on the battery
will ash orange. Release the bail handle, wait until the
battery pack cools down to approximately 67°C, then
restart the mower.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, always
remove the safety key from the mower before cleaning,
performing any maintenance or transporting the mower.
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create
a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety
and reliability, all repairs and replacements should be
performed by a qualied service technician.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Always remove the safety key and
battery pack when servicing or transporting the mower.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each
use, as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and other debris will
accumulate.
Remove any build-up of grass on or around the motor fan
(do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with a damp
cloth.
REMOVING/INSTALLING THE BLADE
WARNING: Always protect your hands by wearing
heavy gloves or wrapping the cutting edges with rags
or other materials when performing any maintenance
on the mower blade. Always remove the battery pack
when servicing or transporting the mower.
◾ To Remove the Blade
Following Fig. Q.
NOTICE: If the bolt rotates with the motor shaft
when loosening the bolt, turn the fan by hand to
align the through holes in the fan with the holes
in the blade, and place another metal rod into the
aligned holes (Fig. R).
◾ To Install the Blade
Following the assembly sequence in Fig. S, with the
fan blade towards deck and the printed blade side
towards outside, align the through holes in the fan
with the holes in the blade (Fig. T) and then tighten the
blade as Fig. U shown.
NOTICE: The recommended torque for tightening
the blade bolt is 49-59Nm.
STORING THE MOWER
◾ Remove the battery pack from the mower and store it
in a cool, dry and clean location. Do not store it next to
corrosive materials, such as fertilizer or rock salt.
◾ Store the mower in a covered, enclosed space, that is
cool and dry and out of the reach of children.
◾ Do not cover the lawn mower with a solid plastic sheet.
Plastic coverings trap moisture around the mower,
which causes rust and corrosion.
◾ The mower can be stored upright or at. (Fig. V & W).
WARNING: If the mower tips over from the upright
position, mower damage or personal injury may result.
Always keep the mower stable and out of the reach of
children when it is in the upright position. If possible, lay
it at for storage.
Protecting the environment
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as
unsorted municipal waste, use separate
collection facilities.
Contact your local government for
information regarding the collection
systems available.
If electrical appliances are disposed of in
landlls or dumps, hazardous substances
can leak into the groundwater and get into
the food chain, damaging your health and
well-being.
