 If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these
steps:
• Stop the lawn mower and release the switch control lever.
• Disconnect the power cord.
• Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage.
• Repair any damage before restarting and continuing
to operate the mower.
 Stop the motor, remove the switch key, and wait until
the blade comes to a complete stop before removing the
grass catcher or unclogging the chute. The cutting blade
continues to rotate for a few seconds after the motor is
shut off. Never place any part of the body in the blade
area until you are sure the blade has stopped rotating.
 If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the
motor and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble.
 Service on the product must be performed by qualified
repair personnel only. Service or maintenance performed
by unqualified personnel could result in injury to the user
or damage to the product.

identical replacement parts when servicing the
product. Use of unauthorized parts may create a risk of
serious injury to the user, or damage to the product.
 Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire or heat.
This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly injury.
 Do not open or mutilate battery (ies). Released electrolyte
is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin.

immediately with water. Seek medical attention.
SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER
 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
 Use of an attachment not
battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious personal
injury.
 Do not service mower with switch key or charger in-
stalled.
 Do not use the charger when the ambient temperature is
above 40°C or below 0°C.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
recommended or sold by the
 Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug,
which could cause shorting and electric shock. If
damaged, have the charger replaced by an authorized
serviceman.
 Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take
it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check to
determine if the charger is in good working order.
 Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
 Disconnect charger from the power supply when not in
use to prevent damage to the charger during a power
surge.
 Risk of electric shock. Do not touch uninsulated portion
of output connector or uninsulated battery terminal.
 Do not expose charger to wet or damp conditions. Water
entering charger will increase the risk of electric shock.
 Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or
moving parts or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which could
cause injury, and damage to the cord, which could result
in electric shock.
 Keep cord and charger away from heat to prevent damage
to housing or internal parts.
 Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,
etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.
 An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result
in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must
be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of
charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet)
Cord Size (AWG)
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
