Then, there are the electrically-powered mowers that use high-capacity motors to drive the blades to cut the grass. Self-propelled mowers are battery-powered mowbots that drive themselves around the field. Place the lawn mower back on to its wheels and reattach the grass collection bag. A complete discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature aging of the battery cells.Protection from environmental influences 1.

To do so, you need to check the energy supply type, blade quality, how the mower handles grass clippings, and the blade height adjustment features. Users have 5 manual cutting positions, which is less than in the previous Greenworks mower. However, the difference is redeemed by exclusive SMARTCUT Technology that automatically adjusts height for power or runtime based on the thickness of your grass. So, in fact, you can forget about manual adjustment at all. The max height is 3 3/8 inches, and the minimum height is 1 3/4 inches.

Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing even if this overheating is not apparent externally. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 59°F (15°C) and charged to at least 40%. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Normally, most lawn mowers feature a master lever (or related height-adjusting mechanism) that allows the user to adjust the height according to which the grass is to be cut . Charge only iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery packs with its compatible iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery charger. Other types of batteries may cause personal injury and damage.

Another section says not to charge the battery in a place where the ambient temperature exceeds 104 degrees F. Either way, you get the message – don’t charge or store the battery in a location that’s going to hit triple digits in summer, such as a garage or storage shed. Average run time was about 40 minutes, depending on grass height, coarseness, and dryness. That was plenty of time to mow an entire ¾ acre lawn without running out of juice. The battery compartment is spring-activated, which makes it easy to install and remove the battery.

Before switching on the mower, make sure that it is not in contact with any foreign objects. Keep your hands and feet a safe distance away from the rotating mower blade and the ejector opening. Failure to comply with these warnings can result in severe personal injury. Place the battery pack into the charger by sliding the pack as shown to lock it into position.

The ease of use of the electric lawn mower is only best tested with ease of detachment of some of its features and the lock on and off buttons. The 12-amp motor on this lawn mower handles most lawns with surprising maneuverability. At 28 pounds, it’s the lightest mower on our list and can mow tight spaces with agility. This lawn mower gets high marks for its ease of use and storage, thanks to the detachable design.
