Battery and Charger Safety (continued)
• Do not alter the provided power cord or plug.
• Do not alter the provided power cord or plug.
• Avoid dropping a metal tool near or onto a battery; it might cause a spark or short-circuit
an electrical part that could lead to an explosion.
• Remove metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working
with a lithium-ion battery. A lithium-ion battery can produce enough current to cause a
severe burn.
• Never operate the charger without good visibility or light.
• Use an appropriate extension cord.
• If the power supply cord is damaged while it is plugged in, disconnect the cord from the
wall receptacle and contact an authorized Toro distributor for a replacement.

location, or prior to servicing it.
Maintenance and Storage
• Store the charger indoors in a dry, secure place that is out of the reach of unauthorized
users.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Take the charger to an authorized Toro distributor when
service or repair is required.
• Unplug the power cord from the outlet before starting any maintenance or cleaning to
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels as needed.
• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug. Replace a damaged cord or
plug immediately.
• If the charger has received an impact, been dropped, or otherwise damaged, do not use
it; take it to an authorized Toro distributor.

Transporting the Lithium-Ion Battery

The US Department of Transportation and international transportation authorities require
that lithium ion batteries be transported using special packaging and only be transported by
carriers certified to haul them. In the US, you are allowed to transport the battery when it is
installed on the machine as battery powered equipment, with some regulatory requirements.
Contact the US Department of Transportation or the appropriate government body in your
country for detailed regulations on transportation of your eFlex or eFlex battery.
For detailed information on shipping a battery, contact your authorized Toro distributor.

gradually diminishes. The following table lists the approximate expected work that the
machine should be capable of over the first 4 years of use:
