NEUTON CE 6.2 Battery-Powered Mower - Safety & Operating Instructions 25
Starting the Motor and Engaging the Blade
• STARTING, STOPPING, AND RESTARTING AN ELECTRIC MOTOR REPEATEDLY WITHIN A FEW SECONDS
CAN GENERATE A GREAT DEAL OF HEAT AND DAMAGE THE MOTOR. TO PROTECT THE LIFE OF YOUR
NEUTON MOWER, ALWAYS WAIT AT LEAST FIVE (5) SECONDS AFTER STOPPING BEFORE RESTARTING
THE MOWER.
•
THE CUTTING BLADE ALWAYS TURNS WHEN THE MOTOR IS RUNNING; THERE IS NO CLUTCH TO ALLOW
THE BLADE TO STOP ROTATING WHILE THE MOTOR IS RUNNING.
1. Perform the Pre-Start Checks listed previously.
2. Insert the Safety Key into the Key Slot (Figure 21). You
can insert the Safety Key either way. The green Status
Indicator Light on the Lower Crossbar should come on.
Starting the Mower
1. Slide the orange Start Knob to your left (Figure 22).
2. Squeeze and hold the orange Control Bar (Figure 23).
The orange Start Knob fits snugly into the Slot on top of
the Handlebar.
3. Continue to hold the Control Bar against the Handlebar for as long as you want the Motor to run.
If the Mower does not start, first check for simple solutions:
•
Make sure the Battery is in, the Safety Key is in, and the Status Indicator Light is green.
• Make sure the Power/Mode Switch is in the Mower position.
• Make sure the white Circuit Breaker Button on the Safety Key is depressed.
•
Did you follow the two (2)-step Start sequence: slide the orange Start Knob to the left,
then squeeze and hold the Control Bar?
NOTE: If the Mower still does not start, follow the steps in “Chapter 8: Troubleshooting Tips”.
THE ORANGE CONTROL BAR IS A SAFETY DEVICE; DO NOT TAMPER WITH IT.
