      Diana SandersJul 25, 2025
      Your Makita Lawn Mower might not start because two battery cartridges are not installed—install the charged battery cartridges. Alternatively, the battery might be under voltage, in which case you should recharge it or replace it if recharging doesn't work. Also, ensure the lock key is inserted.
