Battery Usage Precautions

•Please use according to the specification.

•Please note that wrong usage may lead to electric shocks, smoke emissions, glowing lights and damage.

•When using the battery, the input voltage/temperature range must conform to specifications, otherwise it can cause damage.

•Do not place in environments with high temperatures, humidity, dust or corrosive elements.

•Do not cover-up the battery while charging it. Otherwise, it can cause damage/deformation/scalding, etc.

•When the battery is fully-charged, please remove it from the charger and remove the charger plug from the power socket.

•Under the stipulated storage conditions, if the storage time is greater than 6 months, it will need to be charged at least 2 hours, otherwise, it may

shorten the service life.

Battery Safety

•Activation: Activate every three months, Activate with charger and machine (charge-discharge-charge).

•Storage and transportation: If the battery pack is stored for more than three months, Battery packs should be stored at low temperatures, in a dry

place. The transportation process should avoid any violent vibrations, impacts, exposure to sun and rain, etc.

•When the battery is not in use, please remove it from the device.

•Keep the battery clean and dry.

•The two-cell battery can perform better when used at room temperature.

•If there is stain on the surface of the battery, wipe it with a dry, clean cloth.

•After a long storage period, the battery needs to be activated several times to ensure maximum efficiency.

•When dealing with a secondary battery, please separate it from other electrochemical systems products.

•Waste battery should be disposed of by the relevant disposing unit.

•The improper use of a lithium ion battery can cause battery damage and even endanger personal safety. Please read carefully, use correctly and

take precautions.

•Electrical performance abuse:

•Charge and use according to specifications.

•Use Lithium - ion specific charger.

•Ensure that the polarities are correct when charging. The battery cannot be charged in reversed polarities.

Checking the Engine Oil Level and Filling with Engine Oil

CAUTION! The following procedures and adjustments must be performed before the engine is

started. •Do not attempt to make any of these adjustments while the engine is running. • To

prevent engine damage, the engine is shipped without oil or petrol. The engine must be filled with the correct

grade of oil and petrol before starting the engine. • Running the engine with a low oil level will cause engine

damage. It is recommended that high detergent, premium quality 4-stroke engine oil used. Using non-detergent

oil can shorten the engine’s service life and using 2-stroke oil will damage the engine. • Always use high quality

detergent oil classified SAE30 oil (or equivalent e. g SAE 10W/30, often termed as 4 Stroke lawn mower oil). •

Operation

WARNING! • The blade begins to rotate as soon as the engine has been started. • Do not

operate the machine in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas as the exhaust gas contains toxic

substances. • Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from all moving parts of the machine. • The exhaust and

other parts of the machine will become hot during use. • Make sure that the blade is securely fastened before

starting the engine. • To start the engine, make sure that the spark plug boot is located on the plug and the

machine is filled with sufficient oil and petrol.

Please note: Before using the mower, you must apply air filter oil to the foam air filter element. This

prevents dust ingress into the motor, thus preventing potential engine damage or failure. This should

also be done after cleaning the air filter.
