Attach/Detach Battery Packs
(Fig.9)
WARNING
Battery tools are always
in operating condition.
Therefore, remove both battery packs when
assembling parts, making adjustments,
cleaning, when the tool is not in use, or
when carrying it at your side.
Removing the
battery packs will prevent accidental starting
that could cause serious personal injury.
a. The battery-pack cover is hinged. Raise the
battery-pack cover by lifting the front of the
cover.
b. Align the grooves in each battery pack with
the raised ribs in each of the mower’s battery
compartment. Then insert the battery pack into its corresponding compartment.
c. Push the battery pack until you hear a “click”. It indicates that the battery pack is securely
attached.
NOTICE:
Both battery packs must be inserted. The mower will not function if only one battery
pack is inserted.
d. To detach the battery packs, depress the battery-release button to release the rst battery
pack, and then lift it out of the compartment. Repeat the same procedure with the second
battery pack.
e. Close the battery pack cover.
NOTICE:
Make sure that the latch on the battery pack snaps into place and that the battery
pack is secured to the mower before starting operation.
Start/Stop the Mower
WARNING
Always wear safety glasses while operating the mower or while

from the mower when it is in use.

The blade will continue to rotate for a few seconds after the mower is
turned off. Allow the motor/blade to stop rotating before starting it
again. Do not rapidly turn the mower off and on.
