NEUTON EM 5.1 Cordless Electric Mower Safety & Operating Instructions 25
Chapter 5: Charging and Caring for the Battery
Important: Before charging the battery, read all instructions and cautionary markings in this
manual and on your Mower. Do not operate your Mower until you have read and understand
all instructions and the battery has been fully charged.
The Battery
The NEUTON Mower comes with a sealed, lead acid battery, already installed at the factory. The
battery is rated for 24 volts and 10 amp-hours. The battery should not leak, regardless of the
position in which the Mower is stored. (Read “Handling the Battery Safely” in Chapter 2 for
additional information.”)
The battery is completely maintenance-free. You never need to add water. However, as with all
rechargeable batteries, after years of use they will eventually need replacement. With proper care this
battery should last up to 5 years. Please refer to “Chapter 7: Maintaining and Storing Your
NEUTON Mower” for more information.
Under normal conditions the battery should run for approximately 45 to 60 minutes per use. The
length of time depends on the length, density, and dampness of the grass. If you generally intend to
use your Mower and Trimmer for a longer duration, Country Home Products recommends that you
purchase an extra battery. That way, while you’re using your Mower, the second battery can be
charging.
WARNING! Do not attempt to alter or open the battery.
It may take up to 5 charging and discharging cycles before your battery provides maximum life.
A battery may last much longer if it is charged as soon as it starts to loose power and is not
discharged completely. You should not try to coax a little more out of your battery.
