starting in long grass. In this case, do not tilt it more than absolutely necessary and tilt only the part which
is away from the operator. Always ensure that both hands are in the operating position before returning the
machine to the ground.
■ Switch on the lawnmower according to instructions and with feet well away from the blades.
■ Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of discharge opening at all times.
■ Never pick up or carry the lawnmower while the motor is running.
Under the following conditions, the unit must be switched off, the safety key must be removed from it’s
socket, and the unit must be brought to a complete standstill:
– leaving the lawnmower
– unblocking a blade
– intending to check, clean or work on the lawnmower
– you have encountered a foreign object, in which case you should check the lawnmower for damage and
carry out any necessary repairs.
– the lawnmower is vibrating heavily (switch off immediately and ascertain the cause).
– you wish to change the settings or carry out cleaning work.
– you wish to check whether the connection cables have become tangled or damaged.
■ Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure that the lawnmower is in safe working condition.
■ Check the grass collection bag frequently for wear or deterioration.
■ Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
■ Ensure replacement parts of the right type are used. Ensure replacement parts fitted are from Kogan.
■ Protect the battery charger from rain and moisture. The penetration of water in a battery charger increases
the risk of electric shock.
■ Recharge only with the charger supplied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
■ Do not charge other batteries. The battery charger is suitable only for charging the battery pack of this
lawn mower within the listed voltage range. Otherwise there is risk of danger, fire and explosion.
■ Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination may cause the danger of electric shock.
■ Check the battery charger, cable and plug each time before use. Do not use the battery charger when
defects are detected. Do not open the battery charger yourself and have it repaired only by qualified
Kogan technicians using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, cables and plugs increase the
risk of electric shock.
■ Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflammable surfaces (e. g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in
combustible environments. There is danger of fire due to the heating of the battery charger during
charging.
■ Use product only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
■ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting
the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
■ Do not open the battery pack yourself. There is danger of a short circuit.
■ Do not short-circuit the battery.
■ Touching electrically conductive parts of battery pack might result in an electric shock, be sure to wear
rubber gloves before inspection or maintenance work.
■ Protect the battery against moisture and water.
■ Store the battery only within a temperature range between –20°C (- 4°F) and +40°C (+104°F). As an
example, do not leave the battery in your car in the summer.
