10. Battery tool use and care
- Recharge only with the charger specied by
the manufacturer. Acharger that is suitable for
onetypeofbatterycartridgemaycreateariskof
rewhenusedwithanotherbatterycartridge.
- Use power tools only with specically desig-
nated battery cartridges.Useofanyotherbat-
terycartridgesmaycreateariskofinjuryandre.
- When battery cartridge 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 bat-
teryterminalstogethermaycauseburnsorare.
- Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.Liquid
ejectedfromthebatterymaycauseirritationorburns.
- Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in a re.

Tips for maintaining maximum
battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice
less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-
tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery
service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-
perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let
a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use
it for a long period (more than six months).

Tool / battery protection system
Thetoolisequippedwithatool/batteryprotectionsys-
tem.Thissystemautomaticallycutsoffpowertothe
motortoextendtoolandbatterylife.Thetoolwillauto-
maticallystopduringoperationifthetoolorbatteryis
placed under one of the following conditions:
Overload protection
Whenthebatteryisoperatedinamannerthatcauses
ittodrawanabnormallyhighcurrent,thetoolautomati-
callystopsandthemainpowerlampblinksingreen.In
this situation, turn the tool off and stop the application
that caused the tool to become overloaded. Then turn
the tool on to restart.
Overheat protection
Whenthetoolorbatteryisoverheated,thetoolstops
automaticallyandthemainpowerlamplightsupinred.
Inthiscase,letthetoolandbatterycoolbeforeturning
the tool on again.
Overdischarge protection
Whenthebatterycapacityisnotenough,thetoolstops
automaticallyandthemainpowerlampblinksinred.In

OPERATION
Mowing
WARNING: Before mowing, clear away sticks
and stones from mowing area. Furthermore, clear
away any weeds from mowing area in advance.
WARNING: Always wear the safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields when operating
the mower.
CAUTION: If the cut grass or foreign object
blocks up inside of the mower body, be sure to
remove the lock key and battery cartridge and
wear gloves before removing the grass or foreign
object.
NOTICE: Use this machine for mowing lawn only.
Do not mow weeds with this machine.

Emptythegrassbeforeitbecomesfull.Beforeevery
periodical check, be sure to stop the mower then
removethelockkeyandthebatterycartridge.
NOTE: Using the mower with the grass basket full
prevents smooth blade rotation and places an extra
loadonthemotor,whichmaycausebreakdown.
Mowing a long-grass lawn
Donottrytocutlonggrassallatonce.Instead,mow
thelawninsteps.Leaveadayortwobetweenmowings
untilthelawnbecomesevenlyshort.

NOTE: Mowing long grass to a short length all at
oncemaycausethegrasstodie.Thecutgrassmay
alsoblockupinsideofthemowerbody.
Emptying the grass basket
WARNING: To reduce a risk of accident, reg-
ularly check the grass basket for any damage or
weakened strength. Replace the grass basket if
necessary.

11. Vedno trdno držite ročaj.
12. Pri hoji po pobočjih bodite vedno previdni.
13. Hodite, ne tecite.
14. Kadar dvigujete ali držite kosilnico, ne prije-
majte izpostavljenih rezil ali rezalnih robov.
15. Fizično stanje – ne uporabljajte kosilnice,
kadar ste pod vplivom drog, alkohola ali
kakršnih koli zdravil.
16. Ne približujte rok in nog vrtečim se rezilom.
Previdno: rezila se po izklopu kosilnice prosto
premikajo.
17. Uporabljajte samo originalna proizvajalčeva
rezila, opredeljena v tem priročniku.
18.
Pred uporabo skrbno preverite rezila ali vijake rezil
glede obrabe, razpok ali poškodb. Takoj zamenjajte
počena ali poškodovana rezila ali vijake rezil.
19. Pred košnjo se prepričajte, da v območju koš-
nje ni drugih oseb. Če kdor koli vstopi v obmo-
čje, ustavite kosilnico.
20. Pred košnjo iz delovnega območja odstranite
tujke, kot so kamni, žice, steklenice, kosti in
velike palice, da preprečite telesne poškodbe
ali poškodbe kosilnice.
21. Če opazite kaj neobičajnega, takoj prenehajte
uporabljati kosilnico. Izklopite kosilnico in
odstranite ključ. Nato preglejte kosilnico.
22. Če ima kosilnica funkcijo nastavitve višine za
rezanje, nikoli ne poskušajte prilagajati višine
za rezanje, ko je kosilnica vklopljena.
23. Preden prečkate dovoze, pločnike, ceste in
katere koli peščene površine, sprostite preklo-
pno ročico in počakajte, da se rezilo ustavi.
Ključ za zaklep odstranite tudi če pustite kosil-
nico, sežete, da bi pobrali ali odstranili nekaj s
poti, ali iz katerega koli drugega razloga, ki bi
vam lahko preusmeril pozornost.
24. Predmeti, ob katere zadene rezilo, lahko pov-
zročijo hude telesne poškodbe oseb. Pred
vsako košnjo je treba trato vedno skrbno pre-
gledati in z nje odstraniti vse predmete.
25. Če kosilnica zadene ob tujek, upoštevajte
naslednja navodila:
– Ustavite kosilnico, sprostite preklopno ročico
in počakajte, da se rezilo popolnoma ustavi.
– Odstranite ključ za zaklep in akumulatorsko baterijo.
– Natančno preglejte kosilnico in preverite
morebitne poškodbe.
– Če je rezilo kakor koli poškodovano, ga
zamenjajte. Pred ponovnim zagonom in nadalj-
njo uporabo kosilnice popravite vse poškodbe.
26. Redno pregledujte koš za travo glede obra-
bljenosti ali okvar. Pri shranjevanju se vedno
prepričajte, da je koš za travo prazen. Zaradi
varnosti obrabljeni koš za travo zamenjajte z
novim tovarniškim košem.
27. Bodite izjemno previdni, ko premikate kosil-
nico vzvratno ali jo vlečete proti sebi.
28. Ustavite rezilo/-a, če morate kosilnico nagniti,
kadar se pomikate po netravnatih površinah in
kadar kosilnico prenašate do območja, ki ga
želite pokositi, ali z njega.
29. Ne uporabljajte kosilnice z okvarjenimi varo-
vali ali ščitniki ali brez varnostnih naprav, npr.
deektorjev, in/ali nameščenega koša za travo.
30. Zaženite kosilnico v skladu z navodili in bodite
pozorni, da so vaše noge in roke dovolj odda-
ljene od rezil/-a.
31. Med zagonom motorja ne nagibajte kosilnice,
razen če je treba. V tem primeru kosilnice ne
nagibajte več, kot je treba, in dvignite samo
tisti del, ki je obrnjen stran od upravljavca.
32. Ne zaganjajte kosilnice, kadar stojite pred
odprtino za izmet.
33. Ne segajte z rokami ali nogami pod vrteče se
dele ali v njihovo bližino. Vedno bodite odmak-
njeni od odprtine za izmet.
34. Med prevozom kosilnica ne sme biti vključena.
35. Ustavite kosilnico in odstranite napravo za
onesposabljanje. Prepričajte se, da so se vsi
premični deli popolnoma ustavili:
– kadar pustite kosilnico nenadzorovano,
– preden odpravite ovire ali očistite korito,
– pred pregledom, čiščenjem ali delom na kosilnici,
– po trku s tujkom. Preden ponovno zaženete
in uporabite kosilnico, jo preglejte glede
poškodb in izvedite popravila.
36. Če začne kosilnica neobičajno vibrirati (takoj
preglejte):
– preglejte glede poškodb,
– zamenjajte ali popravite vse poškodovane dele,
– preverite in pritrdite vse razrahljane dele.
37. Med nastavljanjem kosilnice bodite previdni,
da preprečite ujetje prstov med premikajoča se
rezila in ksne dele stroja.
38. Kosite prečno po pobočju, nikoli gor in dol.
Kadar na pobočjih menjujete smer, bodite izje-
mno previdni. Ne kosite pri izredno nagnjenih
pobočjih.
39. Pogosto preverite, ali je vijak za pritrditev
rezila ustrezno zategnjen.
