Charging the starter battery (optional)

charged by the lawnmower.
In certain cases, however, the battery will need to be
charged by the user:

 If discharged, before the winter season, or if left
unused for long periods (> 6 months)
Charging procedure:
1. Take the battery charger out of the battery box.
2. Disconnect the battery cable from the motor cable
( 28).
3. Connect the battery cable with the charger cable
( 29).
4. Connect the charger to the mains supply.
The mains voltage must match the operating
voltage of the charger.
The required charging time is about 36 hours.
Use only the original battery charger supplied.
Caution!
▪ Charge the starter battery only in dry, well-
ventilated rooms.
▪ Do not start up the lawnmower while the battery
is charging.
