PREPARING THE LAWN MOWER

The following steps should be taken to prepare your lawn mower for
storage:

Lubricate mower thoroughly as described in the lubrication
instructions.

Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor

cover (do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with a dry cloth.

If debris is allowed to build up on the underside of the unit, tilt the
mower and scrape it clean with a suitable tool (make certain the
key is removed).

Store mower fully charged. Charging the unit every two months
during storage will provide additional insurance that the batteries
will not suffer any capacity loss.

IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend the mower be charged
once every two months during storage.

Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next to corrosive
materials, such as fertilizer.

Wipe the cord to remove any stains or foreign substance such as
oil.

Coat mower’s cutting blade with chassis grease to prevent
rusting.

Do not store unit below -20 degrees Celsius (-4 degrees F).

These batteries will not leak and can be stored on their sides.
