FAQs

What type of batteries does this mower use?

This mower uses two Greenworks 24V batteries. They are compatible with Greenworks' 24V and 48V tool ranges.

Are batteries included with the mower?

No, the batteries and charger are sold separately and must be purchased in addition to the mower.

How long does it take to charge the batteries?

Charging time varies depending on the battery capacity (Ah) and the specific charger model used. Refer to the battery and charger documentation for precise timings.

What is the maximum lawn area this mower can handle?

The mower is designed to efficiently cut lawns up to 480 m² on a single charge, depending on battery capacity and grass conditions.

Can I use just one battery?

No, the mower requires two 24V batteries to operate. Both must be installed and charged for the mower to function.

How do I adjust the cutting height?

The cutting height can be adjusted using the height adjustment lever, typically located near the rear wheels. There are 7 positions available, ranging from 25 mm to 80 mm.

What maintenance is required for the mower?

Regular maintenance includes cleaning the deck after use, inspecting and sharpening/replacing the blade, and proper battery care (charging and storage).

Troubleshooting

Mower does not start.

Ensure both batteries are fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that the safety key is in place and the start lever is engaged. Inspect battery contacts for dirt or damage.

Poor cutting performance.

Check if the blade is dull or damaged and sharpen or replace if necessary. Ensure the cutting height is not set too low for the grass length. Clean grass clippings from the deck and discharge chute.

Self-propel function is not working.

Verify that the drive lever is engaged. Ensure batteries have sufficient charge, as low power can affect the self-propel system. Check for any obstructions in the drive mechanism.

Mower stops during operation.

Check battery charge levels; low batteries may cause intermittent stopping. Allow the motor to cool down if it has overheated. Inspect for blockages in the cutting deck or grass bag.

Excessive vibration.

Inspect the blade for balance or damage. Ensure the blade is securely fastened. Check for debris lodged in the blade or deck area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • This mower requires two Greenworks 24V batteries to operate. It is also compatible with Greenworks 48V systems, meaning you can use higher capacity 24V batteries (e.g., 4.0Ah, 6.0Ah) for extended runtime. The batteries can be used with other Greenworks 24V and 48V tools.
  • Requires a compatible Greenworks 24V/48V charger (sold separately).

Care:

  • Cleaning: After each use, clean the mower deck and underside to remove grass clippings and debris. Use a damp cloth or a brush. Never use a hose to spray the motor or electrical components.
  • Blade Maintenance: Inspect the blade regularly for damage and sharpness. Sharpen or replace the blade as needed for optimal cutting performance.
  • Storage: Store the mower in a dry, covered area. Fold the handles for compact storage. Remove batteries before long-term storage and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Battery Care: Follow battery manufacturer guidelines for charging and storage to maximize battery life.
