CUB CADET LITHIUM-ION MOWER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long will the mower last per charge?

The time a mower can operate on a full charge can vary depending on a variety

of conditions including the size of the battery, size of the cutting deck, grass

length and moisture levels, yard terrain and the use of attachments such as a

bagger and mulch kit.

The CC 30 e Lithium-ion electric riding lawn mower has a 1500 watt-hour, 30

amp-hour, 56-volt max battery, which provides energy to mow your lawn for up to

1 hour, or up to 1 acre per charge.

The LT42 e Lithium-ion electric riding lawn mower has a 3000 watt-hour, 60

amp-hour, 56-volt max battery, which provides energy to mow your lawn for up to

1.5 hours, or up to 2 acre per charge.

All Cub Cadet Lithium-ion electric lawn mowers come with an anytime fast

charger that allows you to partially charge the rider if additional mowing is

required and fully recharge both riders in approximately 4 hours.

How long does it take for the battery to recharge?

Unlike other battery riding lawn mowers that require overnight charging, Cub

Cadet’s Lithium-ion electric riding lawn mowers come with an anytime fast

charger that allows you to partially charge the battery rider if additional mowing is

required. The anytime fast charger recharges 25% of the battery every hour with

a full recharge in approximately 4 hours. The electrical current charging the

battery will stop after 5 minutes of reaching a full charge. This helps prevent

overcharging the battery. However, the charger will stay on while connected to

the wall outlet. Leaving your rider plugged in for longer than 4 hours will not

damage the battery.

Can I charge the battery from a regular outlet?

Yes, Cub Cadet’s Lithium-ion electric riding lawn mowers can be charged using a

standard electrical outlet. The charger uses an electrical input of 720W, 6A at

120V. You should never connect the charger to an AC voltage that differs from

100-240V.

What is the difference between lead acid and Lithium-ion batteries?

There are several benefits that Lithium-ion batteries have over lead acid

batteries. In addition to being smaller and lighter, Lithium-ion batteries last longer

than their lead acid counterparts. Lithium-ion batteries can also be fast charged

to their full capacity. If you are not charging to full capacity, Lithium-ion batteries

do not have a charge memory and partial charges do not damage the battery.

How much will it cost me to charge the battery?

The Cub Cadet Lithium-ion electric riding lawn mowers use a nominal amount of

power to charge. Though the cost of electricity can vary regionally, on average, a

single charge will cost less than $0.50 (see below).

Current average electricity rate (Spring 2019): $0.1319
