ROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
The Motor fails to
start with the Safety
Key inserted, and
the Control Bar
depressed.
⇒ Check to make sure that you properly inserted the Safety Key and the green
Status Indicator Light is ON.
⇒ Check to see if the white Button on the Safety Key has popped up; if it has, then
depress the Button to reset it.
⇒ Check that you installed the Battery correctly and that the Battery is fully charged.
The green Status Indicator Light should be ON. If not, replace with a fully charged
Battery or recharge the Battery.
⇒ Check to make sure the Power/Mode Switch is in the correct position.
⇒ Make sure you follow the correct starting sequence of sliding the orange Start
Knob to the left and squeezing the orange Control Bar.
⇒ Possibly the Blade is obstructed. Remove the Safety Key and Battery, turn the
Mower over, and check the Blade.
The Mower stops
while mowing (for
reasons other than
releasing the
Control Bar).
⇒ The Battery has completely depleted its charge. Recharge the Battery fully or
replace it with a fully charged Battery.
⇒ The Mower was probably overloaded. If the Status Indicator Light is out, the
Circuit Breaker inside the Safety Key has tripped to protect the Motor. Reset
Breaker by pushing in the white Button in the Safety Key and restart the Mower.
⇒ The grass may be too high for the cutting height. Raise the cutting height or
narrow your cutting swath and try again.
⇒ The Blade, Mower Deck, or Side Discharge Chute probably clogged with debris.
Remove the Safety Key and Battery, turn the Mower over, and clean if necessary.
⇒ The white Circuit Breaker Button in the Safety Key may not be pushed in fully.
Reset it and try again.
⇒ If the Mower bogs down or stalls in heavy grass, raise the cutting height, walk
more slowly, or cut a narrower swath. If the grass is wet, let it dry before mowing.
Excessive vibration
or noise.
⇒ The Blade may be loose. Remove the Safety Key and the Battery; turn the Mower
over and check that the Blade is securely attached.
⇒ The Blade may be unbalanced, bent, or damaged. Remove the Safety Key and
Battery, turn the Mower over, remove the Blade, and check its condition. Replace
with a new Blade if necessary.
