6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your mower.

• Cleaning:

  After each use, remove the battery and clean the mower deck, blade, and grass bag. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use high-pressure water or immerse the mower in water.
• Blade Inspection:

  Regularly inspect the blade for sharpness and damage. A dull blade can tear grass, leading to an unhealthy lawn. Replace or sharpen the blade as needed. Always wear heavy gloves when handling the blade.

• Battery Care and Storage:

  Store batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For long-term storage, charge batteries to 40-60% capacity. Do not store fully discharged batteries.

• Motor:

  The mower is equipped with a brushless motor, which requires minimal maintenance.
