Troubleshooting Table
PROBLEM
The Motor fails to start with the Safety Key inserted, and the Control Bar depressed.
The Mower stops while mowing (for reasons other than releasing the Control Bar).
Excessive vibration or noise.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
⇒Check to make sure that you properly inserted the Safety Key and the green Status Indicator Light is ON.
⇒Check to see if the white Button on the Safety Key has popped up; if it has, then depress the Button to reset it.
⇒Check that you installed the Battery correctly and that the Battery is fully charged. The green Status Indicator Light should be ON. If not, replace with a fully charged Battery or recharge the Battery.
⇒Check to make sure the Power/Mode Switch is in the correct position.
⇒Make sure you follow the correct starting sequence of sliding the orange Start Knob to the left and squeezing the orange Control Bar.
⇒Possibly the Blade is obstructed. Remove the Safety Key and Battery, turn the Mower over, and check the Blade.
⇒The Battery has completely depleted its charge. Recharge the Battery fully or replace it with a fully charged Battery.
⇒The Mower was probably overloaded. If the Status Indicator Light is out, the Circuit Breaker inside the Safety Key has tripped to protect the Motor. Reset Breaker by pushing in the white Button in the Safety Key and restart the Mower.
⇒The grass may be too high for the cutting height. Raise the cutting height or narrow your cutting swath and try again.
⇒The Blade, Mower Deck, or Side Discharge Chute probably clogged with debris. Remove the Safety Key and Battery, turn the Mower over, and clean if necessary.
⇒The white Circuit Breaker Button in the Safety Key may not be pushed in fully. Reset it and try again.
⇒If the Mower bogs down or stalls in heavy grass, raise the cutting height, walk more slowly, or cut a narrower swath. If the grass is wet, let it dry before mowing.
⇒The Blade may be loose. Remove the Safety Key and the Battery; turn the Mower over and check that the Blade is securely attached.
⇒The Blade may be unbalanced, bent, or damaged. Remove the Safety Key and Battery, turn the Mower over, remove the Blade, and check its condition. Replace with a new Blade if necessary.
