This document is an operations manual for the Swift 40V Lithium-Ion Cordless Lawn Mower, Model EB132CP.
The Swift EB132CP is a 40V lithium-ion cordless lawn mower designed for mowing lawns. It operates on battery power, offering cordless convenience. The unit features a safety key mechanism that interrupts power to the motor when removed, enhancing safety during maintenance or when the unit is unattended. It is designed to eject mowed grass directly downwards when used without the grass catcher. The cutting height is adjustable, allowing users to select the desired lawn length. The mower is equipped with a grass catcher for collecting clippings, which can be easily attached and removed.
Preparation: Before initial operation, users must unpack the tool, check for missing or damaged parts, and fully charge the batteries using the provided charger (EBC05). The manual emphasizes familiarizing oneself with the unit's functions and controls, inspecting for wear or damage, and ensuring all guards are in place. It warns against using the lawnmower with damaged or missing components. Users should wear sturdy footwear and long trousers and remove stones, sticks, wires, bones, and other foreign objects from the terrain to prevent injury.
Safety Key: The mower incorporates a safety key located under the battery cover. Removing this key interrupts the power supply to the motor. The key should be removed when the unit is unattended, before checking, cleaning, or performing other work, before removing blockages, if a foreign object is hit, or if the unit vibrates excessively.
Handlebar Assembly: The handlebar is assembled by placing the lower handle into slots, aligning holes, and fastening screws. The upper handle is then placed on the lower handle, and a threaded bolt is inserted through the holes before fastening with screws and knobs. Caution is advised to prevent cable damage when collapsing or unfolding the handlebar.
Cutting Height Adjustment: The cutting height can be adjusted from 0.79" to 2.36". This is done by pulling the handle outwards slightly, setting the desired height, and then releasing the lever.
Grass Catcher Assembly and Attachment: The grass catcher consists of two lower parts that click together. The upper part is then pressed until it clicks. To attach the catcher to the mower, the discharge flap is lifted, the mulching plug is removed, and the grass catcher bag is hooked into the lawnmower before folding the discharge flap down.
Battery Insertion/Replacement: Ensure the battery is fully charged before insertion. The battery cover is opened, and the charged battery is pressed into the power tool until it clicks into place. The battery cover is then closed. To remove the battery, press the release button and pull the battery out.
Battery State of Charge Indicator: A button allows users to check the battery's state of charge via LED indicators (≤100%, ≤75%, ≤50%, ≤25%). The indicator lights go out after 3 seconds. A red light indicates the battery needs recharging. If no light appears after pressing the button, the battery may be faulty.
Switching On/Off: To switch on, press and hold the switch interlock (1) and pull back the On/Off switch towards the handle (2). To switch off, release the handle (2).
Working Without the Grass Catcher: When the grass catcher is not used, the mowed grass is ejected directly downwards.
Charging the Battery: The charger (EBC05) is plugged into an AC outlet (100-250V). The battery is inserted into the charger slots until it locks. A flashing green LED indicates charging, while a steady green light signifies a full charge. Lithium-ion batteries have no memory effect, so partial charges do not damage the battery.
Lawn Care Tips: Frequent mowing promotes strong roots and a firm sward. The normal lawn height is 4-5 cm, and only one-third of the total height should be mown at a time. Mowing across slopes, not up and down, is recommended, with caution when changing direction. Avoid mowing wet grass or on steep slopes.
General Maintenance: The manual stresses the importance of regular maintenance. After use, the unit should be switched off, the safety key and battery removed, and the mower stored in a safe location out of reach of children. All nuts, bolts, and screws should be kept tight to ensure safe working condition. Ventilation slots must be kept clean.
Grass Catcher Maintenance: The grass catcher should be checked frequently for wear or damage. It can be cleaned with a hose for thorough cleaning. The area under the level indicator on the inside of the grass catcher should be regularly cleaned with a hand brush to ensure correct function.
Cutter Blade Maintenance: The cutter bar should be checked frequently for wear or damage. Only cutter bars intended for this lawnmower should be used. Replacing or regrinding the cutter blade should be performed by a specialist garage using special tools. Before any maintenance or cleaning work, the battery must be removed.
Cleaning: The lawn mower should be cleaned directly after mowing, if possible. Water or liquid detergents should not be used. The battery must be removed before cleaning. Grass residues should be carefully removed from the cutting area, and stuck clipping deposits should be removed with a stick. Ventilation slits should be kept clean and dust-free.
Storage: Before storing, the safety key and battery should be removed. The unit should be stored in a dry and frost-free place (50-77 °F). The battery and unit should be stored separately. The battery should be charged before winter storage. The unit's plastic components should be kept away from brake fluids, petrol, petroleum products, penetrating oil, etc., as these chemical substances can damage or destroy the plastic.
Folding the Lawn Mower: The handle bar can be folded down to facilitate storage and transport. This is achieved by loosening the screws of the triangle knob on the upper handle and moving the handle downwards.
Repair: Any repairs should be carried out by an authorized customer service center only. Spare parts must conform to manufacturer requirements, using only original or authorized replacement parts.
Disposal Information: Raw materials should be recycled. The device, accessories, and packaging should be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. Plastic parts are identified for recycling by material type. For EU countries, electric power tools should not be disposed of with household waste but collected according to European Directive 2012/19/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
Guarantee/Warranty: The product comes with a 24-month manufacturer's warranty for the lawnmower and a 12-month warranty for the battery, effective from the purchase date. The guarantee covers defects attributed to material/production faults or non-performance of warranted characteristics. Claims require the original sales receipt. Repairs under warranty must be performed by authorized workshops or service centers. The warranty is invalid for defects caused by misuse, abuse, neglect, commercial use, unauthorized repairs, external effects, foreign objects, substances, or accidents.
