It is designed to mow often, maintaining a healthier and better looking lawn than ever before. Depending on the size of your lawn, Mission

NANO may be programmed to operate at any time or frequency. It is not intended for digging, sweeping or snow cleaning. Maintenance Your Mission

NANO works hard and needs to be cleaned and checked from time to time. Some parts will require replacement as they become worn. Never use your Mission

NANO with defective main switch. Switch off the machine before carrying out any service or maintenance. Here's how to take care of your Mission

Usually your Mission

NANO's blades need to be reversed each month and replaced each 2 months. When replacing the blades, make sure to replace all of them at the same time. You can replace them with one of the spare blade kits and extra blade screws supplied with your Mission

NANO. Before attempting to replace your Mission

NANO’s blades, turn the power off and put on protective gloves and follow these steps:

1. Gently flip the Mission

2. Remove the battery cover and remove the

3. Take the screws off the blades with a

4. Firmly screw on the new blades.

5. Refit the battery and the battery cover.

Important: After screwing the blade to the blade disc, make sure the blade is able to spin freely. A. Replace the blades The Mission

NANO does not cut grass like other mowers. Its cutting blades are razor sharp on 4 edges and rotate in both directions for maximum cutting capacity. Each blade of your Mission

NANO has 4 cutting edges. The blade turning disc will make forward and reverse rotation at random to use 4 cutting edges and minimize the frequency of replacing the blades. Each cutting blade will last up to 3 months when it is programmed to mow every day. Always check to see if the blades are chipped or damaged and replace them if they are. When the cutting blades are dull and worn out, they should be replaced with the spare blades provided with your Mission

NANO . Spare blades are also available at your nearest Kress retailer.

WARNING: Before cleaning, adjusting, or replacing the blades, turn your

NANO OFF and put on protective gloves.

WARNING: When fitting new blades, make sure you replace ALL the blades. Always use new

screws when fitting blades. This is important to ensure blade retention and balance the blade turning disc. Failure to use new screws could cause serious injury. Keep it Sharp

WARNING: Before cleaning, turn your

NANO OFF. Put on protective gloves before cleaning the blade turning disc and do not rinse or flush with water. Keep it Clean

NANO will live a much happier and longer life if it is cleaned regularly. Since your Mission

NANO is an electric machine, you will need to take care when cleaning. DO NOT use a hose, high pressure washers or otherwise pour running water on your Mission

NANO. It is best to use a spray bottle filled with water. When cleaning the machine body, use a soft brush or clean cloth and avoid using solvents or polishes. Lastly, remove all build up of grass clippings and debris. Clean the contact pins located on the charging base and the charging strips located on the Mission

NANO using a cloth. Remove any built up grass clippings or debris around the contact pins and charge strips periodically to ensure the Mission

NANO successfully charges each time. Again, it is important that you power the Mission

NANO OFF and wear protective gloves before touching the blade turning disc. First, flip your Mission

NANO upside down to expose its underside. Here you will see the blade disc, the chassis, and the front wheel and driving wheels. Clean everything thoroughly with a soft brush or moist rag.

WARNING: NEVER clean the underside of

NANO with running water. Component damage can occur. Rotate the blade disc to ensure it rotates freely. Check the blades spin freely around the fixing screws. Remove any obstructions. IMPORTANT: Remove any lodged debris so that it does not cause a crack in the blade disc. Even the tiniest crack can decrease your Mission

NANO's mowing output. A. Cleaning the Body C. Clean the contact pins and the charging strips B. Cleaning the underside The heart of the Mission
