MULCHING MOWING TIPS
While mulching, your new mower is designed

18
EN
to cut the grass clippings into small pieces and
distribute them back into the lawn. Under normal
conditions, the mulched grass will biodegrade
quickly and deliver nutrients to the lawn. Please
review the following recommendations for
optimum mulching performance.
1) Avoid mowing when the grass is wet from rain
or dew. Wet grass may form clumps which
interfere with the mulching action and reduce
the runtime. The best time to mow the grass
is in the late afternoon when the grass is dry
and the newly cut area will not be exposed to
direct sunlight.
2) For the best mulching performance, set the
cutting height to remove about one third of
the grass blade length, ideally no more than
40mm at one time. If the lawn is overgrown,
it may be necessary to increase the cutting
height to reduce the pushing effort and
prevent overloading the motor. For extremely
heavy mulching, it is advisable to rst cut at
a high cut height setting, and then re-cut to
the nal cut height. Otherwise, make narrower
cuts and mow slowly.
3) For the best performance, keep the mower
housing free of built-up grass. From time to
time turn off mower and wait for the blades
to come to a complete stop. Remove the
batteries and turn mower on its side. Using
an object such as a stick, wipe out any
accumulation of grass around the blade area.
Be careful of the sharp edges of the blade.
Ensure to clean the blade area often when
cutting wet or new grass and every time after
the machine is used.
4) Certain types of grass or grass conditions
may require that an area be mulched a second
time to fully disperse the grass throughout the
lawn. If cutting a second time, it is advisable
to cut perpendicular (across) the rst cut
pattern. DO NOT CHANGE CUT PATTERN IN
ANY WAY THAT WOULD CAUSE MOWING
DOWN A HILL.
5) Change your cutting pattern from week to
week. This will help prevent matting and
graining of the lawn.
6) Do not mow on a slope that has an angle of
greater than 15
o
CUTTING AREA
The cutting area can be affected by several
factors, such as cutting height, lawn humidity,
grass length and density. Besides, starting and
stopping the mower too many times during
operation will reduce the cutting area.
It is ideal for mowing 1/4 acre to 1/2 acre lot
sizes.
TIPS:
1) It is recommended to mow your lawn more
frequently, walk at normal pace, and not
to start/stop the mower too often during
operation.
2) For best performance, please ensure use two
fully charged battery packs at the same time
and always cut off 1/3 or less of the grass
height.
3) Walk slowly when cutting long grass, so as
to have more effective cutting and properly
discharge the clippings.
4) Avoid cutting wet grass, otherwise it will stick
to the underside of the deck and the clippings
cannot be collected or discharged properly.
5) A higher cutting height shall be applied to new
or thick grass and it will extend the battery
duration.
Adjusting the cutting height (See Fig.H)
Press and hold Cutting-height adjustment lever.
Adjust the cutting height up and down.
WARNING! Stop, release operating bail and
wait until the motor stops before adjusting
height. The blades continue to rotate after the
machine is switched off, a rotating blade can
cause injury. Do not touch rotating blades.
Opening the Led headlight (See Fig. I)
Press the switch button for Led headlight.
Removing/emptying grass collection bag
(See Fig. J1, J2)
WARNING! Always check the safety ap
close the discharge outlet before using.
Never lift the safety ap when the lawn mower is
being used without tted grass collection bag.
AFTER OPERATION:
Storage (See Fig. K1, K2)
Stop the mower and remove the batteries. Clean
the exterior of the machine thoroughly using a
soft brush and cloth. Do not use water, solvents
or polishes. Remove all grass and debris,
especially from the ventilation slots.
Turn the machine on its side and clean the blade
area. If grass cuttings are compacted in the blade
area, remove with a wooden or plastic implement.
Store the machine in a dry place. Do not place
other objects on top of the machine.
To aid storage, Press and hold quick-release

19
EN
button and fold the handle bar.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Stop the mower and remove
the batteries before removing the grass
collection bag.
NOTE: To ensure long and reliable service,
perform the following maintenance procedures
regularly. Check for obvious defects such as
a loose, dislodged or a damaged blade, loose
ttings, and worn or damaged components.
Check that the covers and guards are all
undamaged and are correctly attached to mower.
Carry out any necessary maintenance or repairs
before operating mower. If the mower should
happen to fail despite regular maintenance,
please call our customer helpline for advice.
BLADE SHARPENING
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER
PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES
NOT CUT GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH
PROPERLY.
WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE
REMOVING, SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING
BLADE. ENSURE THAT BATTERIES ARE
REMOVED.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing
season is usually sufcient under normal
circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull
quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent
sharpening may be required.
REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE
IMMEDIATELY.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE (See
Fig. L)

BLADE BALANCING (See Fig. M)
Check balance of blade by placing center hole in
blade M-1 over a screwdriver shankM-2, clamped
horizontally in a vise M-3. If either end of the
blade rotates downward, le that end. Blade is
properly balanced when neither end drops.

mowing or 2 years, which ever is the sooner-
regardless of condition.
Follow these procedures to remove and replace
the Blade. You will need garden gloves (not
provided) and a spanner wrench (not provided)
