Use and Care Guide

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS LAWN MOWER — LM2140SP/LM2140SP-FC8
◾
Use the right appliance – Do not use the lawn mower for any job except that for
which it is intended. Your lawn mower has been designed to perform only one job:
to mow grass.
◾
Don’t overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
◾
Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe injuries to persons. The
lawn should always be carefully examined and cleared of all objects prior to each
mowing.
◾
Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, particularly small children, and
pets.
◾
Before and while moving backwards with the mower, look behind and down for
small children and other people.
◾
Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.
◾
This machine is a precise piece of power equipment, not a plaything. Therefore,
exercise extreme caution at all times. Your unit has been designed to perform one
job: to mow grass. Do not use it for any other purpose.
◾
Don’t force the lawn mower – it will do the job better and more safely at the rate
for which it was designed.
◾
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used. Remove all stones,
sticks, wire, toys and other foreign objects that could be tripped over or picked up
and thrown by the blade. Thrown objects can cause serious personal injury.
◾
Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks,
bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against walls or
obstructions, which may cause discharged material to ricochet back toward the
operator.
◾
To help avoid blade contact or an injury from thrown objects, stay in the operator
zone behind the handles and keep children, bystanders, helpers and pets at least
100 feet (30m) from the mower while it is in operation. Stop the machine if anyone
enters the area.
◾
Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation and while
performing an adjustment or repair to protect your eyes. Thrown objects that
ricochet can cause serious injury to the eyes. Always use a face or dust mask if the
operation is dusty.
