•Always keep the mower battery away from wa- ter, sources of heat (ovens, radiators, open fires, etc.) and hazardous chemicals.
•Always use the accompanying genuine Stiga charger. Never use the charger for any other product.
•Never use the charger if it is damaged in any way. A damaged lead or charger should immediately be replaced at an authorised service workshop
•Take care of the leads. Never carry the charger by the lead. When charging is complete pull out the plug not the lead. If an extension cable is used, use a robust sort suitable for outdoor use, even if the battery is never charged outdoors.
•The charger always feels warm to touch, during the first hours of charging.
CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS
The battery must always be charged directly after finishing mowing and as soon as it has cooled down (after about 30 minutes).
1.Charge the battery outside of the mower in a dry and cool place.
2.First connect the round plug from the charger to the battery (fig. 4).
3.Then connect the charger to a wall socket (~220/230V).
4.Charge for 1 - 2 days, depending on how long the machine has been used. Whilst the battery is charging, the red charging lamp on the bat- tery is continuously lit, for as long as the bat- tery charger is connected
5.Finish charging by firstly pulling out the plug from the wall socket.
If the charger is first removed from the battery, the plug leads can short- circuit if they come into contact with conductive material.
CHARGING BEFORE WINTER STORAGE
The battery should always be stored ful- ly charged.
1.Take the battery out of the mower.
2.Carefully wipe off the battery.
