Using the Makita 18V X2 (36V) LXT Cordless 18 - Inch Self - Propelled Lawn Mower is a breeze. First, make sure your 18V LXT® lithium - ion batteries are fully charged. Insert the batteries into the 4 - bay battery system. You can use 2 or 4 batteries depending on how long you need to mow. Once the batteries are in, turn on the mower. You can adjust the self - propelled speed between 1.5 MPH and 3 MPH according to your walking pace. For cutting height, use the single lever to quickly set one of the 10 available heights from 1 - 1/4 inches to 4 inches. You can choose to mulch the grass or use the grass catcher bag, which can hold up to 1.7 bushels. When using the Quiet Mode, the mower will run at a constant 2,500 RPM, reducing noise. Some important things to note: Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure safety and proper performance. The mower has a 3 - year limited warranty on the tool, battery, and charger. For maintenance, keep the mower clean after each use. Wipe off any grass clippings and debris. Since it has IPX4 weather - resistant construction and XPT™ technology, it can handle some water and dust, but avoid submerging it in water. Regularly check the blades and replace them if they are dull or damaged. Also, check the battery contacts for any dirt or corrosion and clean them if necessary.
