WARNING:

When the motor has been switched off, the blade will continue to run for several seconds. Do not touch the underside of the mower until the cutter has come to a complete standstill!

Operating the lawnmower

Operation on a slope:

Slopes increase the risk of slip-and-fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. Always be sure of your footing on slopes. Operation on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.

Do:

- Mow across the face of slopes, never mow up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.

- Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects or bumps which could cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Do not:

  • Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you could lose your footing or balance.
  • Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
  • Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause you to slip.

Mower overload protection

To prevent overload conditions, do not try to cut 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. Switch the mower off and check to see if grass has collected beneath the deck and clear it if necessary, then restart the mower.

Battery high temperature protection

The battery pack will generate heat during operation. The heat dissipates slower in hot weather. If the battery temperature exceeds more than 70^ C during operation, the protection circuit will immediately turn off the mower to protect the battery pack from damage. Release the bail handle, wait until the battery pack cools down and then restart the mower.

Function of full indicator (Fig. Q)

If the grass bag is empty or it is not filled with grass, the grass full indicator will be open. If the grass bag is filled with grass the grass full indicator will be closed.

Emptying the grass bag

As soon as the grass bag indicator closes while you are mowing this means that it is time to empty the grass bag.

NOTE: Before taking off the grass bag, switch off the engine and wait until the blade has come to a complete stop.

To take off the grass bag, use one hand to lift up safety flap and the other to grab onto the carry handle. The safety flap automatically falls down after removing the grass bag and closes off the rear chute opening.

Empty out the grass bag then refit to machine.

NOTE: If any grass residue is caught in the discharge chute, clean it using a brush. Do not remove grass debris in the mower casing or on the blade by hand or with your feet. Instead use suitable tools such as a brush or broom. To ensure that the cut grass can be collected into grass bag, the discharge opening and inside the mower casing must be cleared of any blockages.

Yard Force LM C34A - Emptying the grass bag - 1

WARNING: Replace or re-sharpen the mowing blade at the end of the mowing season. Always have the mowing blade re-sharpened or replaced by a recommended Yard Force service centre.

Unbalanced blades will cause the lawn mower to vibrate violently which can increase the risk of accidents occurring.

Battery maintenance:

Use the following procedures to achieve the best battery life:
1. Protect the battery against moisture and water.
2. Store the battery only within temperature range of 5 °C to 45 °C. Do not leave the battery in direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
3. Clean the battery regularly with a soft, clean and dry brush.
4. If you do not use the product for a long time, remember to charge and discharge the battery pack once every 6 months.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Storage and transport

Storage

After cleaning the unit thoroughly, store mower in a dry room and allow the motor to cool down.

To reduce storage space the lawnmower can be folded. (Fig. S)
1. Loose the quick release lock system on handles.
2. Fold the handles.
3. Store.

NOTE: Remove the safety key and battery packs. Ensure cables are not trapped when folding/unfolding the handle. If stored vertically make sure the mower is positioned in a corner so that the blade is facing inwards against a wall and the machine is secure to prevent it falling over.

Transport
