Use and Care Manual

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS MOWER — LM2000-S/LM2000-S-FC 29
MOWER OVERLOAD PROTECTION
To prevent damage due to overload conditions, do not try to remove too much grass at
one time. Slow down your cutting pace or raise the cut height.
Your mower has built-in overload circuit protection. When the mower is overloaded, the
power indicator on the mower will blink orange. The mower can endure a short time of
overload before turning itself off. You can slow your speed to reduce the load; otherwise
the protection circuit will automatically turn off the mower. Release the bail handle, wait
for a few seconds and try again.
BATTERY HIGH TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
The battery pack will generate heat during operation. The heat dissipates more slowly
in hot weather. If the battery temperature exceeds 158°F (70°C) during operation, the
protection circuit will immediately turn off the mower to protect the battery pack from
damage. The power indicator on the mower will shine orange.
Release the bail handle, wait until the battery pack cools down to approximately 152°F
(67°C), then restart the mower.
MOWING TIPS
NOTICE:
A sharp blade will greatly enhance the performance of the mower, especially
when cutting tall grass. Make sure to check the sharpness of the blade before mowing.
◾
Verify that the lawn is free of stones, sticks, wires, and other objects which could
damage the lawn mower or motor. Such objects could be accidentally thrown
by the mower in any direction, and could cause serious personal injury to the
operator and to others.
WARNING:
If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor, remove the safety key
and remove the battery. Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage, and repair the
damage before restarting and operating the mower. Excessive vibration of the mower during
operating is an indication of damage. The unit should be promptly inspected and repaired.
◾
For best results, do not mow in circles. Travel back and forth across the lawn.
◾
When cutting thick grass, reduce your walking speed in order to allow for a more
effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings.
◾
For a healthy lawn, cut off only one-third or less of the total length of the grass.
The average lawn should be approximately 1-1/2 to 2 inches long during cool
months, and between 2 to 3-1/4 inches long during hot months.
