NEUTON EM 5.1 Cordless Electric Mower Safety & Operating Instructions

Storing Your NEUTON Mower

Whether you store the Mower for a short or long period of time, always remember these important
guidelines:

Always store the Mower with a full battery charge and follow the recharging instructions in
“Chapter 5: Charging and Caring for the Battery.”

Always store the Mower in an environment where the temperature is between –4°F (–20°C)
and +104°F (+40°C). Make sure the storage temperatures will never be outside these limits. For
long-term storage, store your battery in an environment where the temperature is lower, since
the battery self-discharges slower at low temperatures.

Store the Mower in a dry environment. Water will damage the Mower and battery.

Do not store the Mower near chemicals, such as fertilizers. These products are often highly
corrosive and may cause permanent damage to your Mower.

Do not store the battery in proximity to organic or other solvents.

Always keep the safety key in a safe place and away from children.

You can safely keep the battery in the Mower when storing them for the long-term.

If you must store the battery outside the Mower, follow these rules:

If the battery will be used again, give it a full charge before removing it from the Mower.

Do not store the battery close to a source of heat, sparks or open flames.

The surrounding temperature range must be between –4°F (–20°C) and +104°F (+40°C).

Do not expose the battery to abnormal shaking or shocks.

Store the battery away from children and animals.

Do not press, bend, or use force on the terminals.

Do not apply heat (such as a soldering iron) to the terminals.

Store the battery in as dry an environment as possible. Do not store it on a floor that may be
damp or subject to accidental flooding.

Regularly observe the external appearance of the battery and keep it clean and dry. Never use a
battery that shows cracks, changes shape, leaks, or otherwise is obviously damaged.

During long-term storage of batteries that are intended for reuse, periodically recharge the
battery, as recommended in “Chapter 5: Charging and Caring for the Battery.”
