SOFT-START
This LI-ION mower is equipped with a soft- start
feature. When initially starting up, the mower will take
approx. 3 seconds to get up to full speed. If the
mower does not initially start: Remove the battery
and check under the mower deck to ensure there is
nothing obstructing the blade and that the blade can
spin freely by hand. Even a small amount of grass on
start up will prevent the soft-startfrom turning the
mower on.

of the safety lock-out button or bail lever.
WARNING: The operation of any mower can result in
foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can
cause severe eye damage. Always wear safety
glasses while operating the mower and while
performing any adjustments or repairs.
WARNING: Ensure that other people and pets
remain at least 100 feet (30 m) away when the mow-
er is in use.

debris that might be thrown by the rotating blades.

between 2 in. to 3 1/4 in. during the hot months.
The mower can be set to 6 cutting heights between
1.5" (38mm) and 3.75" (95mm). Choose the proper
