Cable Adjustment
Before the machine is being used, the cable adjustment should always be checked.
The cables can be checked by activating the handles fully and check if the cable is tight. If not, it must be tightened. If the handle cannot easily be fully activated, the cable should be loosened.
After first season, it must be expected that the cables need to be adjusted for optimal activation, as cables can stretch when used.
The following cables may be necessary to re-adjust:
- Cable for drive (kun Razor 4220TR-Li)
Battery
Warning: Do not try to dissassemble, short circuit or put it to extreme heat or fire, as it can cause serious inquiry and permanent damage to the battery!
Charging
Only use the original charger with art. no. 90066658 (standard charger) or 90066657 (quick charger).
Before the battery is being used the first time, it is recommended to full charge it first.
Charge the battery minimum every 3 month to maintain the capacity for as long as possible.
The battery has an energy indicator. Press the button and a number of LED lighs will flash (Illustration 7):
- 4 lights: 100% battery power
- 3 lights: 75% battery power
- 2 lights: 50% battery power
- 1 lights: Less than 25% battery power
Note: The indicator lighs is only indicative indications, and is not accurate power indications.
Important
To protect the battery from total discharge, the machine will stop, when the battery is nearly empty. The machine must not be started up again after automatic shutdown, as it can damage the battery. The battery must be recharges before the work can continue.
Waste lithium batteries must not be disposed of with the household waste. Batteries should be taken to your local recycling centre for safe treatment.
Charging
Only use the original charger, which is included with the product and do not try to charge other type of batteries in the charger, other than the original battery with art. no. 90066660 (2.5Ah) or 90066659 (4.0Ah).
Keep the charger in a dry and warm environment (10-25 degrees C) and only use it indoor. It should be connected to a normal 230V AC socket.
Before the battery is being used the first time, it is recommended to charge it fully.
The surface of the battery can become warm during charging. This is normal.
Do not cover battery or charger during charging. Allow free ventilation of air.
Charge the battery minimum every 3 month to maintain the capacity for as long as possible.
Insert the battery into the slots of the charger and slide it into place until it lockes.
There are 4 lights on the charger indicating the status and state of charge of the battery (Illustration 8):
- Constant red light : The charger is ready to charge, but no battery is connected
- Flashing red light : Battery fault or overheat (always let a warm battery cool off before charging it)
- Flashing green light : Battery is charging
- Constant green light : Batteri er fuldt oplades og skal fjernes fra opladeren.
The charger will stop, when the battery is full. However, it is not recommended to leave the battery in charger for more than 24 hours.
It is recommended to drain the battery completely and fully charge it whenever possible, as it can increase the health of the battery. But partial charge will not damage the battery.
To remove the battery from the charger, hold the button down and pull the battery out.
During winter storage, the battery should be partly charged (75-100%) and kept warm at 10-20 degrees C. Make sure to keep ventilation holes clean and free from dirt.
A full charge of battery takes around 75 min (2.5Ah battery).
The battery cells will go to sleep-mode if ont used for long time and must be activated again to reach full capacity. The battery will reach its full power after 5 full recharge cycles. Therefore, you might experience that for the first few times uses, the battery’s operating time is a few minutes less than when it reaches its full power/capacity. This is also the case after long times winter storage.
Operation
Safety key
The motor unit has a safety key, which is placed under the battery cover. If the safety key is removed, the power is disconnected, and it cannot start. See illustration 9
It is always recommended to remove the safety key:
- When the lawn mower is left unattended (to prevent uninteded start, e.g. by minors)
- Before clearning and maintenance
- Before remove grass blockings
To remove the safety key, turn it to the position ”O” and pull it out. To insert the safety key, inset it in postion “O” and turn it to position ”–”. Only then the motor can start.
Cutting height adjustment: Illustration 10
The mower has 6 different heights. The cutting height ranges from 25 mm to 75 mm
Start
Never start the mower directly on long grass.
- Open the batttery cover on the motor unit, slide in the battery and click it in place.
- Make sure the safety key is activated and in correct position ”–” ((Illustration 9).
- The key on the motor unit should be turned towards ”L” to activate the battery in left side. The battery socket in right side “R” is only for storage. Always place the active battery in left socket (Illustration 11).
- Hold the start button (A)down and activate the handlebar for engine brake (B) to start the motor. Release start button once started (Illustration 12).
- Hold the bar for self-propelled (C) in order to start mowing (only Razor 4220TR-Li)
Note: As long as operating the mower, the bar for engine brake must be engaged.
Stop: Illustration 12
- Release the engine brake and self-propelled bar* to turn off the mower and the engine
- Only Razor 4220TR-Li
Note: The blades will still rotate at up to 3 seconds after stopping.
Remove the battery
To remove the battery, press and hold the latch button under the battery and pull it out (Illustration 13)
There is space for an addtional battery in the motor unit. This can be purchased seperately.
If 2 batteries are being used, the active battery must be placed in the left socket “L”. The battery socket in right side “R” is only for storage. The key can only be turned towards “L” (Illustration 11).
Working time
The working time per full charge depends of several factors, like length of grass, cutting height and cutting methods (mulching, collection. side discharge).
Variable motor-speed
The motor adjusts the blade-rotations to match the load (length and thickness of the grass). You will therefore hear that the motor-speed will go up/down while cutting the grass. This is perfectly normal and ensures a more energy- effective use of the power from the battery.
Blade
Inspection of the blade
- Tilt the mower with the front upwards.
- Inspect blade for damage, cracks or excessive rust or corrosion.
- Check that the blade bolt is tightened.
Note: A dull blade can be sharpened! But a blade that is worn, bent, cracked or otherwise damaged must be replaced.
Removing the blade: See illustration 14
If you remove the blade to sharpen or replace it, you must use a torque wrench and some heavy gloves to protect your hands.
- Loosen the blade bolt with the included tool. Use a piece of wood to prevent the blade from turning around.
- Remove the bolt, washer, blade and blade holder in that order
- Sharpen or replace the blade.
- Insert the blade holder, blade, washer and bolt in that order.
- Tighten the blade bolt with 50 Nm with the included tool. Use a piece of wood to prevent the blade from turning around.
Warning: A blade must be sharpened so it is in 100 % balance, otherwise it may cause vibrations that could damage the engine. Damage to engine due to faulty sharpening is not covered by warranty. We therefore recommend letting a service center sharpen the blade.
Storage and Maintenance
Maintain your lawnmower: Check all bolts, screws, nuts and deck. Dismount the blade and the belt plastic cover for regular cleaning. Always make sure that the blade is sharp. Keep the motor unit free from grass and dirt. It’s a good idea to take your lawn mower to an annual service check with your authorized service dealer. See your nearest service center at www.texas.dk.
Storage: After use the lawnmower kept in a dry and clean room. Clean the machine after every use. Grass and dirt must be removed from the underside of the deck. Remove the safety key before cleaning and storage.
Winter storage: Spray silicone lubrication into the cables and move them.
Finally, clean the mower thoroughly. Dip a cloth in oil and luricate metal
parts to prevent rust. For storage of battery, see “Battery and Charging”
section.
