unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265°F may cause explosion.
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.
Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, property stakes, or other
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and
fall accident.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material
toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also,
avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction,
which may cause the material to ricochet back toward
the operator.
Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident. Walk,
never run.
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may block your view.
Do not pull the mower backward unless absolutely
necessary. If you must back the mower away from a
wall or obstruction, first look down and behind to avoid
tripping or pulling the mower over your feet.
Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or obstruction.
Material may ricochet back toward the operator. Stop
the blade when crossing gravel surfaces.
Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause

carefully examined and cleared of all objects prior to
each mowing.
If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these
steps:

lever, wait until the blade comes to a complete stop,
and then remove start key.

any damage before restarting and continuing to oper-
ate the mower.
Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a complete
stop, and remove start key before unclogging the chute.
The cutting blade continues to rotate for a few seconds
after the motor is shut off. Never place any part of the
body in the blade area until you are sure the blade has
stopped rotating.
If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the
motor and check immediately for the cause. Replace
the blade if it is unevenly worn or damaged in any way.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
