ASSEMBLY
Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn EM-2

ASSEMBLE THE HANDLE SECTIONS
1. Set the cutting height to the highest setting as shown below. This
will make it easier to attach the lower handle section.
a. Loosen the two large black knobs [Part # 9], one on each side
of the mower body, to allow movement of the height
adjustment arms [Part # 11]. NOTE: the handle is mounted to
the adjusting arms and thus moves with the arms.
b. Set the height to the highest setting and re-tighten the black
knobs.
2. Fit the lower section of the handle [Part # 4] so that the holes are
over the handle posts on the mower. [See Insert B] Then rock the
handle to align the locking tabs and allow the handle section to fit into
place. Place the spacer [Part # 7] over the post and put the cotter pin
(Part # 8] through the hole to secure the handle.
CAUTION
Always keep the battery cover locked. Failure
to do so may allow batteries to fall out,
causing damage to batteries, cables, and
electric circuits.

3. Continue assembly of the middle [Part # 3] and top sections [Part
# 1] of the handle using the handle bolts and wing nuts [Part # 5 and
6]. The top section must be attached with the two holes near
the grip area on the right side (standing behind the mower).
4. Attach the two-handed safety switch [Part # 25] to the top section.
Run the cable [Part # 26] along the top side of the handle (so it does
not hang down behind the mower) and close the “clamshell” portion of
the safety switch around the screw holes. Fasten by inserting and
tightening the two screws provided.
5. Secure the cable to the handle using the two Velcro cable keeper
straps.
ADJUSTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT
The cutting height of the EM-2 may be adjusted from approximately .4
inch up to approximately 2.2 inches. Actual height may vary according
to the height of the turf. Adjust the mower to the desired height as
follows:
Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn EM-2
5
1. Loosen the two large black knobs [Part # 9], one on each side of
the mower body, to allow movement of the height adjustment arms
[Part # 11]. (This is the same movement used to attach the
handle.) NOTE: the handle is mounted to the height adjustment
arms and thus moves with the arms.
2. Set the height, using the scale on the back of the adjusting arms to
the same setting on both sides and re-tighten the black knobs. The
mower is now ready to mow at the desired height setting.
CHARGING THE MOWER BATTERIES
The batteries come from the factory properly connected. All that is
necessary is to charge them.
The batteries must be charged before using the mower for the first
time and after each use. NOTE: Do not leave batteries uncharged
through the winter.
1. Move the OFF/RESET switch [Part # 35] up to the OFF position.
2. Plug the charger [Part # 37] into the mower charging receptacle
and then into a 110V power outlet.
3. A light on the circuit board and on the charger itself will indicate
that the unit is charging. (Set to RESET position when operating.)
Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn EM--2
6
Recharging time for the mower is approximately 5-8 hours. The
charger light, which glows red when the battery is not fully charged,
will glow green when charging is complete. To prolong the overall life
of the batteries you will need to charge the batteries for a full 24 hours
before the first use.
NOTE: The sealed lead acid batteries of the EM-2 do not need to be
fully discharged. The batteries will not develop a “memory.”
INSPECT THE MOWING AREA
1. Before beginning to mow, remove any foreign objects, such as
stones, branches, or toys, from the area.
2. Continue to check for such obstacles during mowing.
The Lawn Should Be Relatively Dry
1. Mowing wet grass causes an uneven cut and can cause damage to
the electrical components of the mower.
2. Do not mow when it is raining.
OPERATIONS
Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn EM-2
7
STARTING AND OPERATING
1. To start and operate the mower, press and hold down the red
safety button with your finger, and with the other hand pull the
starting lever back toward the handle grip. There are similar
instructions on the handle itself stating: “To operate pull handle
while depressing safety button.”
2. As soon as the mower has started, release the red safety button.
3. When the starting lever is released, the motor switches off.
4. The mower may be restarted at any time with the same procedure.
Please note: there is two to three second delay before the
mower will restart.
NORMAL MOWING
To obtain a clean cut, push the mower in straight lines (passes) at a
deliberate walking pace. Overlap the passes to even the cut and to
avoid any uncut strips.
MOWING USING THE GRASS CATCHER (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY)
The grass catcher collects the clippings as it mows.
1. Install the catcher apron [Part # 14] on the non-spring pin side
2. Push the spring pin on the other side
3. Install the apron on the spring pin side
WARNING
•Before starting the mower, check within the blade area for any
foreign objects and remove them.
•Do not operate the mower on areas other than turf surfaces.
The mower should be sitting upright on a level part of the lawn
before starting operation.
!
Owner’s Manual — Sunlawn EM--2

The grass catcher attaches at the grass catcher hooks on the mower
and by the strap to the mower handle, as seen below.
Mow using the same procedure as for normal mowing (described
above).
OVERLOADING/OVERHEATING
If the mower blade is blocked, the blade drive will overload and cause
slippage of the belt, resulting in a loud “brrrrrrr” sound.
1. Release the starting lever. If there is any foreign object in the blade
area, it must be removed before proceeding.
2. The motor is equipped with a circuit limiter that prevents the motor
from overworking.
Do not attach or remove the grass
catcher while the motor is running.
