Periodically check the grass basket for mowed grass. 

Empty the grass before it becomes full. Before every 

periodical check, be sure to stop the mower then 

remove the lock key and the battery cartridge.

Using the mower with the grass basket 

full prevents smooth blade rotation and places 

an extra load on the motor, which may cause 

breakdown.

Mowing a long-grass lawn

Do not try to cut long grass all at once. Instead, mow 

the lawn in steps. Leave a day or two between mowings 

until the lawn becomes evenly short.

NOTE:

 Mowing long grass to a short length all at 

once may cause the grass to die. The cut grass may 

also block up inside of the mower body.
