CHARGING THE BATTERY (HRX217HMA ONLY)
The lawn mower does not have an internal charging system. A plug-in
charger is provided to recharge the battery. Use the plug-in charger
after prolonged storage or anytime you notice a decrease in starter
motor speed.
To assure maximum reliability, the battery should be recharged (boost
charged) before prolonged storage and charged again at the beginning
of the mowing season. Charge the battery in a dry, well-ventilated area
where the temperature is moderate.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
1. Remove the battery cover by depressing the tabs located on the
sides and releasing the tab on top of the battery cover.
2. Disconnect the battery connector by depressing the connector tab
and pulling the battery connector from the harness connector,
which is located inside the battery case, above the battery.
WARNING
A battery can explode if you do not follow the
correct procedure, seriously injuring anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking
materials away from the battery.
