Preparing for Off-Season Storage

WARNING

Improperly storing the mower and its battery may result in an increased risk of fire and/or electric shock; this may cause personal injury and/or property damage.

  • Disconnect and remove the battery from the mower before storing the mower and/or its battery inside your home.

  • Follow the instructions for properly storing the mower.

IMPORTANT

Store the mower in a cool (0C to 23C/32F to 73F), dry location (< 65% relative humidity) that is free of excessive dust and corrosive chemicals or gasses.

The temperature that the battery is stored at will affect its long-term life. Storage for long periods of time at extreme temperatures will reduce the battery life.

IMPORTANT

Store the mower, power supply, and charging station out of the reach of children, away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals and de-icing salts, and away from extended exposure to snow and ice. Store the mower, power supply, and charging station in a cool, dry place when the mower will not be used for more than a month.

  1. Fully charge the mower.
  2. Press the stop button on the mower.
  3. Remove the mower from the charging station.
  4. Turn the power switch to the Off position.
  5. Disconnect and remove the battery from the mower.
  6. Clean the mower housing using a cloth or soft brush and remove grass clippings, dirt, and grime from external parts of the shroud and from the top of the mower housing.
  7. To prepare the mower for the next season, check the condition of the blades; if necessary, replace the blades.
  8. Before storing the charging station indoors, disconnect the power supply and low-voltage cable from the charging station.
