and right height adjustment must be repositioned on the side of the mower
housing. 1. Changing the cutting height is
quick, easy and requires no tools. Simply pull out the spring-loaded height
adjustment knob and adjust until the required height is selected. This enables
the roller assembly to slide up or down to place the cutting bar at a
different height level.
2. Release height adjustment knob and check that it is securely seated in the
required cutting height position.
Note: Set the cutting height so that the cutting bar does not touch the ground
if there is any uneven ground.
Note: Make sure that left and right height adjustments are at the same height.
Switching On and Off
To prevent accidental start up, the mower is fitted with a dual action switch.
1. Press and hold the lock-off
button, then pull the start/stop
1
lever towards the handle to

Inserting the Battery into the Mower
1. Open the battery cover and slide the battery into the mower aligning the
ribs so that it clicks into place.
2. Insert the safety key. (If the mower is not going to be used immediately, do not insert the safety key).
3. Close the battery cover.
OPERATION
3. MOWING
The cordless cylinder mower can be used with a Power-X-Change battery or used
in manual mode without a battery.
The use of a cylinder lawn mower can help achieve improved cutting results
specifically on ornamental lawns. Mow your lawn 1 2 times a week. We
recommend that normal home lawns should be mowed when the grass is 60 70 mm
high, ornamental lawns when the grass is 30 – 40 mm high.
Irrespective of the recommended cutting height, the lawn should only be
reduced by one third of the current height each time it is mowed. Before the
onset of the first frost, the lawn should be reduced to its recommended
height.
Only ever mow the lawn when it is as dry as possible in order to achieve
perfect cutting results. To ensure that it can be cut cleanly, the grass
should never be over 100 mm high. The mower has a freewheeling facility for
when it is pulled back.
Lawn Mowing Tips
· Start mowing the edge of the lawn and work along making sure to overlap each
pass by a few centimetres.
Note: The operating time of the PXC battery (the area in square meters that
can be covered with a single battery charge) is largely dependent on the state
of the grass (e.g. Density, moisture, height, cutting height, etc.) and the
mowing speed (walking speed). To adjust the area coverage to your individual
requirements, it is recommended that you mow the lawn more often, with a
higher cutting height and at an appropriate speed.
Frequently turning the equipment on and off while mowing will also reduce the
amount of area that you can cover. If the operating time of the PXC battery
(area coverage) is still unsatisfactory in spite of the above measures, you
can remedy the problem by using PXC battery with a larger capacity (Ah).
Removing the Battery from the Mower
1. Open the battery cover. Press the
battery release tab and remove
1
the battery.
2. Close the battery cover.
2
· For optimum grass collection, always mow in a straight line; do not swing
the lawn mower from side to side.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT MOW WITH POOR VISIBILITY CONDITIONS, IN THE RAIN OR WHEN
GRASS IS WET.
· While using your lawn mower always wear substantial closed, heavy nonslip
footwear and long trousers.
· Make sure the lawn is clear of sticks, stones, wire and debris; they could
be jammed in the blade.
· Before using the lawn mower and after any impact, check for signs of wear or
damage and repair as necessary.
· Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the long handles) is
maintained between the mower reel blades and the user.
· Be especially careful when mowing and changing direction on slopes and
inclines.
· Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the
grass blades from fraying and the lawn from turning yellow.
PXCPM-018
MAINTENANCE
WARNING! ALWAYS ENSURE THE LAWN MOWER BLADE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED, REMOVE
SAFETY KEY, BATTERY AND GRASS CATCHER PRIOR TO ANY MAINTENANCE.
· Do not clean the lawn mower with running water, particularly with high-
pressure water. Ensure that all mounting components (i.e. screws, bolts, nuts
etc.) are always tightened so that the equipment can be safely operated at all
times.
· Keeping your lawn mower in good condition not only ensures a long lifespan
and high performance, but also enables the equipment to thoroughly cut your
grass with minimal effort. For best results, clean the lawn mower with a brush
or rag. Do not use any solvents or water to remove dirt.
· Frequently check the grass catch assembly for signs of wear. · Keep all
nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the lawn mower is in a safe working
condition. · Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deterioration. ·
Replace worn or damaged parts for safety. · Be careful during adjustments of
the lawn mower to prevent entrapment of the fingers between
moving blade and fixed parts of the machine. · The blades on the mower spindle
are subject to more wear and tear than any other component
of the unit. Check the condition of the blades on the mower spindle at regular
intervals and make sure that the mower spindle is tightly fastened. · When not
in use, the mower should be stored in a dry, frost-free location, out of reach
of children. If the housing of the mower requires cleaning, do not use
solvents but a moist soft cloth and brush only.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries
caused by the repair of the lawn mower by an unauthorised person or by
mishandling of the lawn mower. This tool is designed for DIY use – use in
commercial or industrial environments will void the warranty.
Adjusting the Cutting Bar to the Reel Blades
WARNING! ALWAYS USE PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN ADJUSTING THE CUTTING BAR. SHARP
EDGES COULD CAUSE INJURY.
The cutting bar is pre-set at the factory. Readjustment might be required
after prolonged use. The cutting bar should be as close to the reel blades as
possible, when the blades are rotated they should make slight contact making a
whispery sound (like scissors opening and closing), ensure the bar does not
stop the blades from rotating. Only adjust the cutting bar if: · The cutting
results appear rough and uneven and some blades of grass are
not cut (the distance between the cutting bar and mower reel blades is too
large) · The mower is heavy or even impossible to push. · The mower spindle
makes loud noises or does not rotate because it rubs or catches against the
cutting bar. Adjusting:
· Keep hands away from blades. Use a piece of timber to stop the blades from
spinning.
· Turn the socket head screw clockwise – this reduces the distance between the
cutting bar and mower blade.
· Turn the socket head screw counterclockwise – this increases the distance
between the cutting bar and mower blade
1. Tighten one of the two socket head screws enough so that the mower blade
touches the cutting bar.
2. Repeat point 1 with the second socket head screw.
Note: The socket head screws on both sides of the mower must be adjusted
evenly such that the mower reel blades can only just rotate freely. We
recommend a test cut on the lawn to confirm correct adjustment.
Battery protection system The tool is equipped with the battery protection
system, which helps to ensure a long service life. The output power
automatically cuts off during operation when the tool and/or battery are
placed under the following situations: · When the tool is overloaded:
If this occurs, release the start/stop lever safety key and batteries and
remove causes of overload, then reinsert the safety key and batteries, then
press and hold the lock-off button and pull the start stop lever again to
restart. · When the remaining battery capacity becomes low: Recharge the
battery pack. Note: The indicated capacity may be lower than the actual level
during use or
immediately after using the tool.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term
“power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1. Work area safety a. Keep work
area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Battery tool use and care a. 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. b. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire. c. When battery pack is not in
use, keep it away from other metal objects, like
paper 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. d. 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. e. Do not use a
battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or
risk of injury. f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire. 6. Service a. Have your power tool
serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b. Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only
be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service provider.

BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS
Before using the charger or battery read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the charger, battery pack and the product using the battery pack.
Do not lose these safety instructions.
Battery Warnings 1. The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton.
First read the safety instructions and then follow the charging
notes and procedures. 2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge
cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently. 3. Use and store the battery pack
in dry conditions with low humidity between 0-50°C, ideally at 15°C. Avoid
exposing
battery pack and charger to direct sunlight. 4. Do not keep battery pack in
places where temperatures are liable to reach over 50°C, such as in a car,
metal shed or
similar that is in direct sunlight. 5. Do not ignite the battery pack or
expose it to fire. There is a risk of explosion! 6. Do not exhaustively
discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The
most common
cause of exhaustive discharge is long-term storage and continued use of low-
charge batteries. Always store the battery with some charge. Charge the
batteries every 2-3 months to restore charge. Stop working as soon as the
performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection
system triggers. 7. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads
will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing
without this overheating being apparent externally. 8. Avoid damage and
shocks. Do not use batteries which have been dropped from a height of more
than one meter or strong external impact, even if the housing of the battery
pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have
suffered serious damage. 9. If the battery pack suffers overloading and
overheating, the integrated protective cut-off will switch off the equipment.
Do not press the ON/OFF switch on the tool if the protective cut-off has
actuated. This may damage the battery pack. Allow the battery to cool to room
temperature before use. 10. Use only original battery packs. The use of other
batteries may result in injuries, explosion and a fire risk. 11. Protect your
rechargeable battery against moisture, rain and high humidity. Moisture, rain
and high humidity can cause dangerous cell damage. Never charge or use
batteries which have been exposed to moisture, rain or high humidity. 12.
Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing
of the battery pack is damaged, do not use the battery. 13. When battery pack
is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper 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. 14. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If accidental contact occurs, flush with
water and seek medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns. 15. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. 16. Do not expose a
battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130°C may cause explosion. 17. Never service damaged battery
packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer.
18. Do not disassemble Battery. This may result in a risk of electric shock,
electrocution or fire.
Charger Warnings 19. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
battery charger. Ensure to only connect the battery charger
to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating plate. 20. Protect the
battery charger and its cable from damage and sharp edges. Have damaged cables

BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS
Before using the charger or battery read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the charger, battery pack and the product using the battery pack.
Do not lose these safety instructions.
Battery Warnings 1. The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton.
First read the safety instructions and then follow the charging
notes and procedures. 2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge
cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently. 3. Use and store the battery pack
in dry conditions with low humidity between 0-50°C, ideally at 15°C. Avoid
exposing
battery pack and charger to direct sunlight. 4. Do not keep battery pack in
places where temperatures are liable to reach over 50°C, such as in a car,
metal shed or
similar that is in direct sunlight. 5. Do not ignite the battery pack or
expose it to fire. There is a risk of explosion! 6. Do not exhaustively
discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The
most common cause
of exhaustive discharge is long-term storage and continued use of low-charge
batteries. Always store the battery with some charge. Charge the batteries
every 2-3 months to restore charge. Stop working as soon as the performance of
the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers. 7.
Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads will quickly result
in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing without this
overheating being apparent externally. 8. Avoid damage and shocks. Do not use
batteries which have been dropped from a height of more than one meter or
strong external impact, even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be
undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have suffered serious
damage. 9. If the battery pack suffers overloading and overheating, the
integrated protective cut-off will switch off the equipment. Do not press the
ON/OFF switch on the tool if the protective cut-off has actuated. This may
damage the battery pack. Allow the battery to cool to room temperature before
use. 10. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries may
result in injuries, explosion and a fire risk. 11. Protect your rechargeable
battery against moisture, rain and high humidity. Moisture, rain and high
humidity can cause dangerous cell damage. Never charge or use batteries which
have been exposed to moisture, rain or high humidity. 12. Never attempt to
open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery
pack is damaged, do not use the battery. 13. When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal objects, like paper 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. 14. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If accidental contact occurs, flush with water and
seek medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns. 15. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. 16. Do not expose a battery
pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130°C may cause explosion. 17. Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer. 18. 18.
Do not disassemble Battery. This may result in a risk of electric shock,
electrocution or fire.
Charger Warnings 19. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
