7. Overload-/Overheat protection

Overload protection The lawn mower is equipped with a overload protection, which will stop the motor if it is overloaded. Avoid going too fast over long grass or set the height adjustment to a higher position. If the motor switches off, remove the battery, remove grass from under the deck, from the rear discharge hole and empty the grass collector. Battery overheat protection The battery generates heat during use. If the temperature exceeds 70

C, to protection circuit will immediately turn off the mower to protect the battery from damage. If this happens, let the battery cool down and restart the lawn mower.

Inspection of the blade

• Tilt the mower to the side.

• Inspect blade for damage, cracks or excessive rust or corrosion.

• Check that the blade bolt is tightened. Note: A dull blade can be sharpened! But a blade that is worn, bent, cracked or otherwise damaged must be replaced. Removing the blade: See Fig. 10 If you remove the blade to sharpen or replace it, you must use a torque wrench and some heavy gloves to protect your hands.

1. Loosen the blade bolt with the included tool. Use a

piece of wood to prevent the blade from turning around.

2. Remove the bolt and blade

5. Tighten the blade bolt with 50 Nm with the included

tool. Use a piece of wood to prevent the blade from turning around.14

Warning: A blade must be sharpened so it is in

100 % balance, otherwise it may cause vibrations that could damage the engine. Damage to engine due to faulty sharpening is not covered by warranty. We therefore recommend letting a service center sharpen the blade.

9. Storage and maintenance

Maintain your lawnmower: Check all bolts, screws, nuts and deck. Dismount the blade and the belt plastic cover for regular cleaning. Always make sure that the blade is sharp. Keep the motor unit free from grass and dirt. It’s a good idea to take your lawn mower to an annual service check with your authorized service dealer. See your nearest service center at www.texas.dk. Storage: After use the lawnmower kept in a dry and clean room. Clean the machine after every use. Grass and dirt must be removed from the underside of the deck. Remove the safety key before cleaning and storage. The lawn mower can be stored horizontally or vertically to reduce storage space. See Fig. 11. Ensure cables are not trapped when folding handle.
