Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before initial operation, ensure both 18V LXT batteries are fully charged using the provided dual-port charger. The mower deck should be inspected for debris buildup after each use to maintain airflow for mulching. When storing, fold the handle down to save space and remove the batteries to prevent accidental engagement. The steel deck can be cleaned with a damp brush, but avoid high-pressure water spray near the battery terminals or motor intake vents. Because this unit is part of the Makita LXT range, the batteries and chargers are fully compatible with hundreds of other Makita 18V cordless tools, allowing for a streamlined workshop setup.
