- Recommendations
- Stop using the affected mower until it has been repaired. Disconnect the negative battery cable and secure it away from the negative battery post. If you are unsure on how to disconnect the battery, see the battery disconnection instructions or contact your local Bobcat lawn mower dealer. Contact your local Bobcat lawn mower dealer to arrange repair. Repairs are expected to commence from mid-April 2024 when replacement voltage regulators become available.
