FAQs

What is the maximum area this mower can handle?

The Makita LM002JM101 is rated to effectively cover lawns up to 1600 m² on a single charge under optimal conditions.

Can I adjust the cutting height while the mower is running?

It is strongly recommended to turn off the mower and wait for the blades to stop completely before adjusting the cutting height.

How do I know when the grass catcher is full?

The mower is designed to allow you to easily monitor grass levels; however, if you notice grass clippings being left on the lawn or reduced collection performance, it is time to empty the bin.

Is this mower suitable for wet grass?

While the mower can handle slightly damp grass, it is best to avoid cutting very wet, tall grass to prevent clogging the deck and to ensure a clean cut.

How long does it take to charge the battery?

Charging times can vary depending on the temperature and remaining battery level, but please consult the specific LED indicators on your Makita charger for real-time status.

Does this mower have a mulching option?

This model is primarily designed as a collection mower, utilizing its 70L grass catcher for a clean, professional finish.

Troubleshooting

Mower fails to start

Check that the battery is fully inserted and charged. Ensure the safety key is inserted correctly and the bail handle is engaged.

Poor grass collection performance

Check if the discharge chute is blocked by damp grass and ensure the grass catcher is properly attached and not overfilled.

Excessive vibration during use

Inspect the blade for damage, imbalance, or debris. Tighten the blade mounting bolt if loose, or replace the blade if it is bent or chipped.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Unboxing and Assembly: Remove the mower from the packaging and unfold the handle assembly, ensuring all locking knobs are tightened securely.
  2. Battery Charging: Fully charge the 4.0Ah Li-ion battery using the provided charger before the first use. Ensure the battery is clicked firmly into place.
  3. Height Adjustment: Before starting, adjust the cutting height lever to the desired setting to avoid scalping the lawn on initial passes.
  4. Cleaning: After each use, remove the grass clippings from the underside of the deck using a plastic scraper. Avoid using high-pressure water jets, as these can force moisture into the motor housing.
  5. Storage: Store in a dry, covered area. If storing for the winter, ensure the battery is charged to roughly 50% capacity and removed from the unit to maintain long-term cell health.
