Adjusting the mowing height

WARNING:

• Never put your hand or leg under the mower unit

when adjusting the mowing height.

• Always make sure that the lever fits in the groove

properly before operation.

The mowing height can be adjusted in the range of

between 20 mm - 75 mm.

1. Remove the lock key.

Fig.7

2. Pull the mowing height adjusting lever toward

yourself and move it to your desired mowing

height.

Make sure that the protrusion on the mowing height

adjusting lever fits in the groove in the mower.

NOTE:

• The mowing height figures should be used just as

a guideline, as the state of the lawn or ground may

cause lawn height to be slightly different to the set

height figure.

• Try a test mowing of grass in a less conspicuous

place to get your desired height.

Battery protection system

Lithium-ion batteries are equipped with a protection

system. This system automatically cuts off power to the

tool to extend battery life.

The tool will automatically stop during operation if the

tool and/or battery are placed under one of the following

conditions:

• Overloaded:

The tool is operated in a manner that causes

it to draw an abnormally high current.

In this situation, release the trigger switch on

the tool and stop the application that caused

the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the

trigger switch again to restart.

If the tool does not start, the battery is

overheated. In this situation, let the battery

cool before pulling the trigger switch again.

• Low battery voltage:

The remaining battery capacity is too low and

the tool will not operate. In this situation,

remove and recharge the battery.

Battery remaining capacity indicator

(only for models with Battery BL3622A)

Battery BL3622A is equipped with the battery remaining

capacity indicator.

•

When only the lowermost indicator lamp (next to the

“E”) blinks, or when none of the indicator lamps light,

the battery capacity has run out, so the tool does not

operate. In these cases, charge the battery or

replace the empty battery with a fully charged one.

• When two or more indicator lamps do not light

even after charging is complete, the battery has

reached the end of its service life.

•

When the upper two and lower two indicator lamps

light alternately, the battery may have malfunctioned.

Contact your local Makita authorized service center.

NOTE:

•

The indicated capacity may be lower than the actual

level during use or immediately after using the tool.

• Depending on the conditions of use and the

ambient temperature, the indication may differ

slightly from the actual capacity.
