Transporting the
Lithium-Ion Batteries
The US Department of Transportation and
international transportation authorities require that
lithium-ion batteries be transported using special
packaging and only be transported by carriers certified
to haul them. In the US, you are allowed to transport
a battery when it is installed on the machine as
battery powered equipment, with some regulatory
requirements. Contact the US Department of
Transportation or the appropriate government body in
your country for detailed regulations on transportation
of your batteries or the machine with the batteries
equipped.
For detailed information on shipping a battery, contact
your Authorized Service Dealer.
Charging the Batteries
DANGER
Contact with water while charging the
machine could cause electric shock, causing
injury or death.
• Do not handle the plug or the charger with
wet hands or while standing in water.
• Do not charge the batteries in the rain or in
wet conditions.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this charger has a
3-prong grounded plug (type B). If the plug does not
fit into the wall receptacle, other grounded plug types
are available; contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
Do not change the charger or the power-supply-cord
plug in any way.
Important:
Check the power supply cord
periodically for holes or cracks in the insulation.
Do not use a damaged cord. Do not run the cord
through standing water or wet grass.
Recommended temperature range for charging:
0° to 55°C (32° to 131°F)
Important:
Charge the batteries only in
temperatures that are within the recommended
range.
Note:
The charger will not function in temperatures
exceeding the minimum or maximum temperatures.
1.
Park the machine in the designated location for
charging.
2.
Shut off the machine and remove the key.
3.
Ensure that the battery-disconnect switch is in
the O
position.

4.
Plug the charger cord into the machine.
5.
Plug the other end of the charger cord into a
grounded electrical outlet.
6.
Observe the InfoCenter to ensure that the
batteries are charging.
Note:
The InfoCenter shows the battery charge
percentage and amperage. Batteries with a
lower voltage charge first; once they reach
the voltage of the other batteries, all batteries
charge simultaneously. The fan may turn on
while the machine is charging.
When charging is complete, the InfoCenter
shuts off.
