English
EN

2.1 WORK AREA SAFETY
•Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
•Do not operate the machine in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. The machine create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•Keep children and bystanders away while operating the machine. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2.2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•Machine plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) machine. Unmodified 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 the machine to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a machine will increase the risk of
electric shock.
•Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the machine. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
•When operating the machine 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 the machine in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
2.3 PERSONAL SAFETY
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the machine. Do not use the
machine while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating the machine 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. Energizing the machine that have the switch on invites accidents.
•Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the machine on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the machine may result in personal injury.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the machine in
unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 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.
2.4 MACHINE USE AND CARE
•Do not force the machine. Use the correct machine for your application. The correct machine will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
•Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn it on and off Any machine 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
machine before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the machine. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the machine accidentally.
•Store an idle machine out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the machine
or these instructions to operate the machine. A machine is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
•Maintain the machine and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the operation of the machine. If damaged, have the machine
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained machine.
5
English EN

•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 machine, accessories etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the machine 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.
2.5 BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
•Recharge only with the charger specified 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.
•Use the machine only with specifically designated batteries. 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 fire.
•Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
•Do not use a battery pack or machine that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
•Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
130°C (265°F) may cause explosion.
•Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
2.6 SERVICE
•Have your machine serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the machine is maintained.
•Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
3 LAWN MOWER SAFETY WARNINGS
•Do not use the lawnmower in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
•Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the lawnmower is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
lawnmower during operation.
•Thoroughly inspect the area where the lawnmower is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires,
bones, and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause personal injury.
•Before using the lawnmower, always visually inspect to see that the blade and the blade assembly are
not worn or damaged. Worn or damaged parts increase the risk of injury.
•Check the grass discharge chute frequently for wear or deterioration. A worn or damaged grass discharge
chute may increase the risk of personal injury.
•Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly may result in personal injury.
•Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk of fire.

English EN

NOTE
It is always recommended to start out in low mode/
slow speed.
3. Push right and left steering control levers inward
until stops are contacted.
4. Pull up on deck blades ON/OFF switch (PTO) to
start cutting blades for mowing.
NOTE
Only engage blades when steering control levers
are in the NEUTURAL position! NEVER engage
blades when moving!
5. Push steering control levers forward for forward
motion and pull for reverse motion.
NOTE
Electric brake will engage after steering control
levers are returned to neutral.
10.2.2 DRIVE THE MACHINE
After starting the traction drive system, engage the
steering control levers and steer as follows:
WARNING
Always be aware of what is behind the machine before
backing up. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind before and
while backing up.
WARNING
Rapid movement of steering control levers is not
recommended as damage to the electrical system
components may occur.
•To go forward, push steering control levers forward
an equal distance.
•To go in reverse, pull steering control levers
rearward an equal distance.
•To turn left, move the right steering control lever
farther forward from neutral than the left steering
control lever.
•To turn right, move the left steering control lever
farther forward from neutral than the right steering
control lever.
•To execute a zero-radius turn, move one steering
control lever forward and the other steering control
lever rearward. This will allow the drive wheels to
counter-rotate.
•To stop or decrease speed, move steering control
levers to neutral. When going forward, pull back
gently on steering control levers. When going in
reverse, push forward gently on steering control
levers.
•For an emergency stop, there are two methods
that can be used:
• When traveling forward or in reverse, place the
steering control levers in the park brake position
immediately. When moving in the rearward
direction, push forward gently on steering control
levers and avoid sudden movement. Any sudden
movement could cause the front of the mower
to come off of the ground, resulting in possible
loss of control, thereby causing serious injury or
death.
• Press push button to turn mower OFF. This will
shut down the traction drive system and the
deck drive system.
•To make a three-point turn to the right, move
the left steering control lever farther forward from
neutral than the right steering control lever and start
the turn. Next, pull back on the steering control
levers until they are past neutral and the machine
starts to go rearward. Pull the right steering control
lever farther rearward from neutral than the left
steering control lever until the rear of the machine
has pivoted around. Then, push the steering control
levers forward until they are both past neutral and
the machine starts to go forward. Push the left
steering control lever farther forward from neutral
than the right steering control lever and finish the
turn.
•To increase speed, increase steering control
lever’s distance from neutral. The farther forward
steering control levers are from neutral, the faster
the machine will travel forward. The farther back
steering control levers are from neutral, the faster
the machine will go in reverse.
10.2.3 STOP THE MACHINE
DANGER
Never make sudden stops or reverse direction,
especially when maneuvering on a slope. The steering
is designed for sensitive response. Rapid movement
of the steering control levers in either direction could
result in a reaction of the machine that can cause
serious injury.
1. Return steering control levers to the Neutral
position. Push the steering control levers outward
into park brake position.
14
English
EN

NOTE
The PTO switch will disengage automatically when
the operator stands on the ground and steering
control levers are in the park brake position.
2. Push down on deck blades ON/OFF switch (PTO) to
turn off the blades.
3. Press push button to turn the mower OFF.
10.3 SLOPE OPERATION
• Use extreme caution when operating on slopes.
• Do not remove or modify any wheels.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.
Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs,
garbage etc.
• Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed or direction.
• Avoid starting and stopping on a slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly
straight down the slope.
• Mow a safe distance (minimum of 10 feet) away
from drop-offs, retaining walls, drainage ditches,
embankments, water, and other types of hazards
to avoid a wheel dropping over the edge or the
ground breaking away. This will reduce the risk
of the machine suddenly rolling over, which could
cause either serious injury or death.
• Use a walk-behind, push mower or hand-held
trimmer on slopes and near drop-offs, retaining
walls, drainage ditches, embankments and water.
• Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could
cause sliding and loss of steering control.
• Do not tow on slopes. The weight of the towed
equipment may cause loss of traction and control.
• If the mower’s tires lose traction when operating on
slopes, disengage the deck drive, place the steering
control levers in the park brake position, press push
button to turn mower OFF, remove the key fob and
get help.
• Never make sudden starts, stops, turns, or reverse
direction, especially when maneuvering on slopes.
The steering is designed for sensitive response.
Rapid movement of the steering control levers in
either direction could result in a reaction of the
machine that can cause serious injury.
• Never stop suddenly while backing down slopes.
This action may result in a reaction of the machine
that can cause serious physical injury.
• Do not mow from side-to-side when operating
greenworkscommercial mowers on unlevel or
sloped ground. Always mow slopes in the up-and-
down direction. When operating on slopes up to 15
degrees, be aware of any conditions that may cause
the mower drive tires to lose traction, resulting in a
possible loss of control of the machine. An operator
should not operate on a slope until he is thoroughly
familiar with the equipment.
Do not operate on slopes greater than 15
degrees.
Refer to Slope Guide, when determining the degree
of slope to be mowed. It is strongly recommended
that the operator drive the machine off of the slope,
using extreme caution, if any sign of loss of traction
is detected. Wait until the condition that caused the
problem is resolved before attempting to operate
on the slope again. Terrain conditions can affect
traction, resulting in possible loss of control of the
machine. Some of the conditions to be aware of are:
1. Wet terrain
2. Depressions in the ground (e.g., holes, ruts,
washouts)
3. Mounds of dirt
4. Certain types of soil (e.g., sand, loose dirt,
gravel, clay)
5. Grass type, density, and height
6. Extremely dry conditions
7. Tire pressure
The attachments mounted to the mower will also
affect the way it handles on a slope. Be aware that
each attachment’s characteristics vary.
These are just a few examples of situations where
caution must be used when operating on a slope.
There are many other possibilities too numerous
to mention. Remember to always exercise extreme
caution while operating on any slope.
11 OPERATION SUGGESTIONS
DANGER
Prior to operation, the operator should be thoroughly familiar with the proper use and operation of the equipment,
should read the manual completely and thoroughly, and should have attempted slow moving maneuvers to become
familiar with the operation of the equipment before attempting normalspeed operation. An inexperienced operator
should not mow on slopes or on uneven terrain.
15
English EN

WARNING
If you lose steering control while operating the machine, place the steering control levers in the park brake
position immediately and press push button to turn the mower OFF. Inspect the machine and consult your
greenworkscommercial dealer to resolve the problem before continuing to operate.
WARNING
The unit’s steering control levers are very responsive. For smooth operation, move levers slowly, avoiding sudden
movements. Skill and ease of operation come with practice and experience. The machine can spin very rapidly.
Use caution when making turns and slow down before making sharp turns.
Inexperienced operators may have a tendency to oversteer and lose control. Slow-moving practice maneuvers are
recommended to become familiar with these characteristics before attempting normal-speed operation.
WARNING
Sharp depressions or raised obstacles (such as gutters or curbs) should not be directly approached at high speed
in an attempt to “jump” them as the operator could be thrown from the equipment. Approach at a slow speed and
angle one drive wheel at the obstruction. Continue at an angle until the wheel clears and then pivot the opposite
wheel around.
When turning on soft or wet turf, keep both wheels rolling either forward or backward. Pivoting on one stopped wheel
can damage turf. Keep blades sharp. Many problems with incorrect cutting patterns are due to dull blades or blades
which have been sharpened incorrectly. Blade sharpness should be checked daily.
DANGER
Never work with blades while key fob is in place. Always place deck blades switch (PTO) in the disengaged
position, place steering control levers in the park brake position and press push button to turn the mower OFF and
remove key fob from switch. Block up mower when you must work under it. Wear gloves when handling blades.
Always check for blade damage if mower strikes a rock, branch, or another foreign object during mowing.
•Direct grass discharge to right, away from unmowed area. Select a mowing pattern that directs grass
discharge towards the outside the mowing area. Generally, this means using a pattern utilizing left turns because
side discharge is to the right. In any case, avoid throwing grass discharge onto unmowed area because grass is
then mowed “twice.” Mowing twice puts an unnecessary load on the unit and reduces mowing efficiency.
•When mowing a lawn for the first time, cut grass slightly longer than normal to avoid scalping uneven terrain.
When possible, it is best to use the cutting height that was used in the past. When cutting grass taller than six
inches, you may want to mow the lawn twice to achieve a better quality of cut.
•During normal mowing, cut only about 1/3 of the grass blade. Cutting more than that is not recommended
unless grass is sparse or it is the end of the mowing season.
•Alternate mowing pattern between cuts to keep the grass growing straight and better dispersion of the
clippings.
•Remember, grass grows at different rates at different time of the year. Mow more often in the early spring to
maintain the same cutting height. As the growth rate slows in mid summer, mow less frequently. If you cannot
mow at a regular interval, mow at a high cutting height at first, then mow again two days later at a lower cutting
height.
•Raise the cutting height of the mower if the cutting width of the mower is wider than the previous mower. This
ensures that uneven turf is not cut too short.
•Raise the cutting height of the mower if the grass if slightly taller than normal or if it contains a high degree of
moisture. Then mow it again with the cutting height set lower.
•If the machine’s forward motion must be stopped while mowing, a clump of grass clippings may drop onto
your lawn. To avoid this, move onto a previously cut area with the blades engaged.
•Charge the battery immediately.
