■ To prevent scalping the lawn when encountering high
spots, the cutting deck wheels should be positioned
approximately 1.25 cm off the ground when the mower
is at the lowest cutting height. When shipped, the
cutting deck wheels are set to the 3.8 cm position.
■ When the level of battery charge reaches the red
zone on the battery charge indicator, the blades
automatically stop. Immediately return to the charging
location, and recharge the mower. Continuing to mow
when the battery charge level is in the red zone causes
the mower to be stranded away from the charging area.
NOTE: If the mower is stranded away from the charger,
place the drive levers to neutral position and push the
mower back to the charging location.
■ If your lawn appears unevenly cut after using the
mower, make sure tires are properly infl ated to the
recommended air pressure when mowing. If uneven
cutting issues persist, contact an authorised service
centre.
