MAINTENANCE

• When servicing the mower, use only identical replacement parts that are

available from the manufacturer. In order to obtain replacement parts, call

the toll-free helpline, at 1-800-317-7833. The use of parts that do not meet

the original equipment specications may lead to improper performance,

and may compromise safety.

• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the blade and all moving

parts have come to a complete stop. Remove the battery when making any

adjustments or when any of the four wheels must be lifted off the ground.

• Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

• Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and grease.

• In order to reduce the risk of re, keep the motor free of grass, leaves, and

debris build-up.

• Check the blade and motor mounting bolts for proper tightness frequently.

Visually inspect blade for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, or worn).

• For best and safest performance, maintain the mower with care. Keep the

mower blade sharp and clean. Mower blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap

the blades or wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing.

• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be sure that the equipment

is in safe working condition.

• Never tamper with safety devices. Check them regularly for proper

operation.

• After striking a foreign object, stop the motor. Thoroughly inspect the mower

for any damage. Repair any damage before operating the mower.

• The grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail shield are subject

to wear and damage, which could expose moving parts or allow objects to

be thrown. As a safety precaution, check these components frequently, and

immediately replace any parts that show signs of wear, or that are cracked

or broken. Use original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) parts only, as

listed in this manual.

• When it is not in use, store the mower indoors in a dry area, and out of the

reach of children.

WARNING

Always remove battery when servicing or transporting the mower.
