SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS LAWN MOWER

DANGER: This machine was built to be operated according to the rules for safe

operation included in this manual. As with any type of power equipment, carelessness

or error on the part of the operator can result in serious injury. This machine is capable

of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe all safety

instructions could result in serious injury or death.

WARNING: When using electric lawn mowers, basic safety precautions should

always be followed to reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, and personal injury. These

basic precautions include the following:

CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children.

Children are often attracted to the mower and mowing activity. They do not understand

the dangers. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

◾Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible

adult other than the operator.

◾Be alert and turn the mower off if a child enters the area.

◾Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or

other objects that may obscure your vision of a child who may run into the mower.

◾Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a power mower. Children 14

years old and over should read and understand the operation instructions and

safety rules in this manual and should be trained and supervised by a parent. Only

responsible individuals who are familiar with these rules of safe operation should

be allowed to use this machine.

OPERATION

GENERAL OPERATION:

◾Read this operator’s manual carefully in its entirety before attempting to assemble

this machine. Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and in

the manuals before operation. Be completely familiar with the controls and proper

use of this machine before operating it. Keep this manual in a safe place for future

and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS LAWN MOWER — LM2160SP/LM2160SP-FC 7

◾Stay Alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate lawn

mower when you are tired.

◾Do not operate the machine while under the inﬂuence of alcohol or drugs.

◾Keep Children Away – All visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.

◾Keep hands and feet away from cutting area.

◾Don’t use in rain.

◾Use the right appliance – Do not use the lawn mower for any job except that for

which it is intended. Your lawn mower has been designed to perform only one job:

to mow grass.

◾Don’t overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

◾Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe injuries to persons. The

lawn should always be carefully examined and cleared of all objects prior to each

mowing.

◾Before and while moving backwards with the mower, look behind and down for

small children and other people.

◾Don’t force the lawn mower – it will do the job better and more safely at the rate

for which it was designed.

◾Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks,

bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against walls or

obstructions, which may cause discharged material to ricochet back toward the

operator.

◾To help avoid blade contact or an injury from thrown objects, stay in the operator

zone behind the handles and keep children, bystanders, helpers and pets at least

100 feet (30m) from the mower while it is in operation. Stop the machine if anyone

enters the area.

◾Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation and while

performing an adjustment or repair to protect your eyes. Thrown objects that

ricochet can cause serious injury to the eyes. Always use a face or dust mask if the

operation is dusty.

◾Dress properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught

in moving parts. Use of rubber gloves and footwear is recommended when

working outdoors. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-ﬁtting pants

and shirts. Shirts and pants that cover the arms and legs and steel-toed shoes

are recommended. Never operate this machine in bare feet, sandals, slippery or

lightweight (e.g., canvas) shoes.

56-VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS LAWN MOWER — LM2160SP/LM2160SP-FC8

◾Never pull the mower back toward you while you are walking. If you must back the

mower away from a wall or obstruction, ﬁrst look down and behind you to avoid

tripping, and then follow these steps:

◾Step back from mower to fully extend your arms.

◾Be sure you are well balanced with sure footing.

◾Pull the mower back slowly, no more than half way toward you.

◾Repeat these steps as needed.

◾Keep the area of operation clear of all bystanders, particularly small children. Stop

the machine and attachment(s) if anyone enters the area.

◾The motor/blade control handle is a safety device. Never attempt to bypass its

operation. Doing so makes the safety device inoperative and may result in personal

injury through contact with the rotating blade. The motor/blade control handle must

operate easily in both directions and automatically return to the disengaged position

when released.

◾Avoid dangerous environments – Don’t use lawn mowers in damp or wet locations

so as to avoid slipping and falling during operation.

◾Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious personal injury.

If you feel you are losing your footing, release the motor/blade control handle

immediately and the blade will stop rotating within three seconds.

◾Mow only in daylight or good artiﬁcial light. Walk, never run while operating.

◾Stop the blade when crossing gravel drives, walks or roads.

◾If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the motor,

remove the battery and check for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of

trouble.

◾Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

◾Before cleaning the machine, unclogging the chute or removing or replacing the

grass bag, mulching insert, or side discharge chute, turn the motor off and wait

until the blade comes to a complete stop, then remove the battery pack. The

cutting blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the motor is shut off.

Never place any part of the body in the blade area until you are sure the blade has

stopped rotating.

◾Never operate the mower without the proper trailing shield, discharge door, grass

bag, mulching insert, side discharge chute, motor/blade control handle or other

safety protective devices in place and working. Never operate the mower with

damaged safety devices. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.

◾If situations occur that are not covered in this manual, use care and good

judgment. Contact EGO Customer Service for assistance.

◾Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before

connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance. Carrying the

appliance with your ﬁnger on the switch or energizing appliance that have the

switch on invites accidents.

◾Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing appliance. Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

◾Recharge only with the charger speciﬁed by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of ﬁre when used with

another battery pack.

◾Use appliances only with speciﬁcally designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury and ﬁre.

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a ﬁre.

◾Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, ﬂush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally

seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.

Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall accidents, which can result in severe

injury. Operation on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not

mow it. For your safety, use the slope gauge in this manual to measure slopes before

operating this unit on a sloped or hilly area. If the slope is greater than 15 degrees, do

not mow it.

Before cleaning the machine, unclogging the chute or removing or replacing the grass

bag, mulching insert, or side discharge chute, turn the motor off and wait until the

blade comes to a complete stop, then remove the battery pack. The cutting blade

continues to rotate for a few seconds after the motor is shut off. Never place any part of

the body in the blade area until you are sure the blade has stopped rotating it.

Do not operate machine under any condition where stability is in question. Tires could

slide even if the wheels are stopped.

Use extra care while operating machine with a grass catcher. they can affect the

stability of the machine.

Do:

◾Mow across the face of slopes; never mow up and down. Exercise extreme caution

when changing direction on slopes.

◾Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps which can cause you to slip

or trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Do not:

◾Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments; you could lose your footing

or balance.

◾Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees, as shown on the slope gauge.

◾Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause slipping.
