NEUTON EM 5.1 Cordless Electric Mower Safety & Operating Instructions 19
Controls and Features
Make certain that you are familiar with the controls, parts, and operation of your NEUTON Mower
before using it.
Key Slot
The key slot is used for both the external battery charger and the safety key. You can never connect
both the external battery charger and insert the safety key at the same time.
Safety Key
The safety key, after being inserted into the Mower, allows the motor to start and run. The safety
key can be inserted either way — it has no front or back.
The safety key has a built-in circuit breaker to protect the motor.
Note: When the built-in circuit breaker is tripped, the white button on top of the safety key will
pop up.
Before attempting to restart the Mower, push the white button all the way down until it locks into
place.
Start Knob
The orange start knob is a safety feature that you must push across before the control bar can be
depressed.
Control Bar
The orange control bar is a safety feature. The bar must be pressed in for the motor to start and
run, and the cutting blade to spin. When the bar is released, the motor shuts off and the blade stops
spinning within three seconds.
