IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The batteries
could explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
Keep all metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects away from the battery
and battery terminals that can make a connection from
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause serious burns or a fire.
Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the
battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause burns.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
Do not charge battery in an area of extreme heat or cold.
Batteries ill charge best at temperatures from 50˚F to
100˚F.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Do not modify or attempt to repair the appliance or the
battery pack (as applicable) except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
Do not expose the battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265°F may cause explosion.
Do not store lawnmower in locations where the temperature
is less than 22°F or more than 120°F. If the lan moer is
stored at temperatures below 50F or above 100F, remove
the batteries and store separately according to the tem-
perature range recommended in the battery manual. Do
not store mower or batteries outside or in vehicles.
Do not use lawnmower in locations where the temperature
is less than 15°F or more than 104°F.
Only use RYOBI Electric Riding Lawn Mower 80 volt and
40V lithium batteries.
Use this product only with batteries and chargers listed in
tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supple-
ments 998000922 for 80V and 988000-842 for 40V.
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR TOWING
Use common sense when towing. Too heavy of a load
while on a slope is dangerous. Tires can lose traction with
the ground and cause you to lose control of your mower.
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel
weights or counterweights.
Do not attach towed equipment except at the approved
hitch point.
Total towed weight must not exceed the weight that you
can safely control with the mower.
Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
Stopping distance increases with speed and weight of
load being towed. Travel slowly and allow extra time and
distance to stop.
Do not turn sharply when towing. Use additional caution
when turning or operating under adverse surface condi-
tions. Use care when reversing.
Do not attempt to pull or dislodge stationary objects with
the tow hitch. The machine may pivot about the rear drive
wheels and lift upwards, resulting in serious personal
injury or death.
Do not use a chain, cable, or rope to pull accessories not
intended for towing. Only tow accessories that include a
tow attachment.
