Charging with the Battery Removed from the Mower
1. Remove the battery from the Mower.
2. Connect the charger plug to the charger
receptacle on the battery (Figure 23).
3. Plug the charger into a wall outlet. The red light on
the battery lights up.
Note:
The red light on the battery only indicates that the
charger is plugged in and the battery is charging — the
charger and the light will not automatically turn off or
change color when charging is complete.
As with charging in the Mower, a full charge takes at least
12 hours and can take up to 24 hours. For the first five
hours, the charger will be warm to the touch. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
The fuse on the charger is replaceable.
Important: Always keep the battery in a dry place.
Disconnecting the Charger
Remember to disconnect the battery from the charger using this sequence:
1. Pull the charger’s plug out of the wall outlet.
2. Disconnect the charger from the battery or the key slot on the Mower.
Recharging After Each Use of the Mower
Always fully recharge the battery immediately after each use, no matter how short a time it was used.
Fully recharge even if the indicator light on the Mower is still green. This is important in order to
maintain maximum Mower performance and extend the useful life of the battery. If you are using
the Mower and the green indicator light goes out, suggesting low battery charge, then you should
stop using the Mower and either replace or recharge the battery.
Unlike “smart batteries” found in devices such as cell phones, the NEUTON Mower’s battery
should NOT be run until it is completely drained. Running the battery until it is fully depleted will
reduce the long-term performance of the battery.
Leaving the battery on the charger for an extended period of time (up to six months) will not
damage the battery. It is impossible to overcharge the Mower’s battery.
WARNING! Always disconnect the charger from the electrical (wall) outlet first,
and then disconnect the round charger plug from the mower’s key slot or the
battery. If the round charger plug is removed first, the exposed connector can
be accidentally short-circuited by foreign material, which might cause a fire.
