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. You can slow your speed to reduce the load; otherwise the protection circuit will shut off the mower automatically. release the bail handle, wait for a few seconds and try again.

BaTTerY HIGH TeMperaTUre prOTecTION the battery pack will generate heat during operation. in hot weather the heat dissipates more slowly. if the battery temperature exceeds 158°F (70°C) during operation, the protection circuit will immediately shut 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 high 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, and remove the safety key. 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. if there is growth, the lawn should be cut in the fall.

sLOpe GaUGe (Fig. 20)

WARNING: Do not mow a slope that has an angle of greater than 15° (a rise of approximately 2 1/2’ (0.75m) every

10’ (3m). mow across the face of a slope, and never up and down.

use Fig. 20 as a guide in order to identify slopes that cannot be mowed safety.

MULcHING TIps

WARNING: inspect the area where the mower is to be used, and remove all stones, sticks, wire and other debris that might be thrown by the rotating blade.

 release the switch to turn the mower off when crossing any graveled area; stones can be thrown by the blade.

 Set the mower to the highest cutting height when mowing on uneven ground or in tall weeds.

 For effective mulching, do not cut wet grass, because it tends to stick to the underside of the deck, preventing proper mulching of grass clippings. the best time to mow grass is in the late afternoon when the grass is dry and the newly cut area will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

 For best mulching performance, set the cutting height to remove approximately one third of the grass blade length, ideally no more than 1 1/2” at one time. if the grass is overgrown, it may be necessary to increase the cut height to make it easier to mow and to prevent overloading the motor. Slow your cutting pace in tall or thick grass conditions.

For mulching extremely thick or tall grass, it is advisable to first cut at a high cut-height setting, and then re-cut to the final cut height. Otherwise, make narrower cuts and mow slowly. alWaYS maKe Sure tHe BlaDe iS SHarp.

WARNING: always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves or wrapping the cutting edges with rags or other materials when performing any maintenance on the mower blade. always remove the safety key and battery pack when servicing or transporting the mower.

WARNING: use proper eye protection while removing, sharpening, and installing blade.

WARNING: a worn, cracked, or damaged blade can break, and piece of the damaged blade can become dangerous projectiles. thrown objects can cause serious injury. inspect the blade regularly, and do not operate the mower with a worn or damaged blade.

NOTICE: Keep the blade sharp for best mower performance. a dull blade does not cut grass cleanly or mulch properly.

a dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. a worn or damaged blade can break, causing blade pieces to be thrown from the mower.

if the blades are found to be bent, take the lawn mower to an authorized egO service center for inspection.

sHarpING FreQUeNcY

Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is usually sufficient under normal circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull quickly; if your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be required.

25 wHeN sHarpeNING THe BLade:

1. make sure that the blade remains balanced.

2. Sharpen the blade at the original cutting angle.

3. Sharpen the cutting edges on both ends of the blade, removing an equal amount of material from each end.

TO sHarpeN BLade IN a VIse:

1. remove the bade from the mower (please see remOVing tHe BlaDe.)

2. Secure the blade in a vise (Fig. 25.)

3. Wear proper eye protection and gloves and be careful not to cut yourself.

4. Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth file or sharpening stone, maintaining the original cutting edge angle.

5. to check the blade balance: clamp a nail or a screw driver with a round shank in the horizontal position. position the blade so that the nail or round shank of the screwdriver supports the blade through its center hole. Balance the blade horizontally. if either end of the blade rotates downward, remove some metal from the heavy or lower end until the blade is balanced. it is balanced when neither end drops (Fig. 26).

MOWER OVERLOAD PROTECTION

To prevent 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 motor will stop and the power indicator on the mower will flash orange. Remove the battery pack from the mower. Check to see if grass has collected beneath the deck and clear it if necessary, then install the battery and restart the mower.

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 heat damage. The power indicator on the mower will shine orange and the LED on the battery will flash 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 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 operation 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.

◾

To maintain 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.

SLOPE GAUGE (Fig. 21)

WARNING: Do not mow a slope that has an angle of greater than 15° (a rise of approximately 2 1/2’ (0.75m) every

10’ (3m)). Mow across the face of a slope and never up and down.

Use Fig. 21 as a guide in order to identify slopes that cannot be mowed safety.

MULCHING TIPS

WARNING: Inspect the area where the mower is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wire and other debris that might be thrown by the rotating blade.

◾ ◾

Release the switch to turn off the mower blade rotation when crossing any graveled areas; stones can be thrown

◾ by a rotating blade.

◾

Set the mower to the highest cutting height when mowing on uneven ground or in tall growth.

22


◾ ◾

For effective mulching, do not cut wet grass; it tends to stick to the underside of the deck, preventing the proper mulching of grass clippings. The best time to mow grass is in the late afternoon, when the grass is dry and the newly cut area will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

◾ ◾

For the best mulching performance, set the cutting height to remove approximately one third of the grass blade length, ideally no more than 1 1/2” at one time. If the grass is overgrown, it may be necessary to increase the cut height to make it easier to mow and to prevent overloading the motor. Slow your cutting pace in tall or thick grass conditions. For mulching extremely thick or tall grass, it is advisable to first cut at a high cut-height setting, and then re-cut to the final cut height. Otherwise, make narrower cuts and mow slowly. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE

BLADE IS SHARP.


23

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the battery pack from the mower before cleaning or performing any maintenance.

WARNING: When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualified service technician.

CLEANING THE MOWER

WARNING: Always remove the battery pack when servicing or transporting the mower.

The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use, as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and other debris will accumulate. This accumulation is undesirable, as it will promote rust and corrosion.

WARNING: A worn, cracked, or damaged blade can break and pieces of the damaged blade can become dangerous projectiles. Thrown objects can cause serious injury. Inspect the blade regularly and do not operate the mower with a worn or damaged blade.

NOTICE: Keep the blade sharp for best mower performance. A dull blade does not cut grass cleanly or mulch properly.

A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. A worn or damaged blade can break, causing blade pieces to be thrown from the mower.

If the blades are found to be bent, take the lawn mower to an authorized EGO service center for inspection.

SHARPING FREQUENCY

Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is usually sufficient under normal circumstances. Sand causes the blade to dull quickly; if your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be required.

WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE:

◾ ◾

◾

Make sure that the blade remains balanced.

◾

Sharpen the blade at the original cutting angle.

◾ ◾

Sharpen the cutting edges on both ends of the blade, removing an equal amount of material from each end.

30

TO SHARPEN BLADE IN A VISE:

1. Remove the blade from the mower (please see REMOVING

THE BLADE.)

2. Secure the blade in a vise (Fig. 30.)

3. Wear proper eye protection and gloves and be careful not to cut yourself.

4. Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth file or sharpening stone, maintaining the original cutting edge angle.

5. To check the blade balance: clamp a nail or a screw driver with a round shank in the horizontal position. Position the blade so that the nail or round shank of the screwdriver supports the blade through its center hole. Balance the blade horizontally. If either end of the blade rotates downward, remove some metal from the heavy or lower end until the blade is balanced. It is balanced when neither end drops (Fig. 31).

31

6. Replace the blade on the mower and tighten it securely (please see INSTALLING THE BLADE).

WARNING: An unbalanced blade will cause excessive vibration when rotating at high speeds. It may cause damage to the mower and could break, causing personal injury.

28


LUBRICATION

Lubricate with light oil as directed below at least once each season.

◾ ◾

Periodically lubricate the spring and pivot pin in the quick-adjust lever, the torsion spring and pivot of the rear-discharge door with light oil to prevent rust (Fig.

32a & 32b).

◾ ◾

Place the mower into the locked storage position:
