4.1 Starting and Stopping the Mower

The E2RM46 is self-propelled, reducing effort during operation.

• To engage the self-propelled function, press the drive lever (usually a second bail lever) towards the handle while the motor is running.

4.3 Mulching and Side Discharge

Your mower offers versatile grass disposal options:

• Mulching: For mulching, ensure the grass catcher is removed and the mulching plug (if included) is inserted into the rear discharge opening. The mower will finely cut grass clippings and return them to the lawn as natural fertilizer.
• Side Discharge: For side discharge, remove the grass catcher and mulching plug. Attach the side discharge chute to the side opening of the mower deck. This option is useful for taller grass or when you don't want to collect clippings.
• Rear Collection: For collecting grass, ensure the grass catcher is properly installed and the side discharge chute and mulching plug are removed.

4.4 Mowing Techniques

• Mow in overlapping rows to ensure even coverage.
• Avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass blade length at a time.
• For best results, mow when the grass is dry.
• Battery runtime is approximately 40 minutes, depending on grass conditions and cutting height. Plan your mowing sessions accordingly.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your FUXTEC E2RM46 lawn mower. Always remove batteries before performing any maintenance.

5.1 Cleaning the Mower

• After each use, clean the mower deck, grass catcher, and wheels.
• Use a brush or cloth to remove grass clippings and debris. Do not use water jets or high-pressure cleaners directly on the motor or battery compartment.
• Ensure all vents are clear of obstructions.

5.2 Blade Inspection and Replacement

• Regularly inspect the blade for sharpness and damage. A dull or damaged blade can lead to poor cutting performance and excessive vibration.
• To replace the blade, wear heavy-duty gloves. Secure the blade with a block of wood and use a wrench to loosen the blade bolt.
• Install the new blade, ensuring it is correctly oriented, and tighten the blade bolt securely.

5.3 Battery Care and Storage
