WARNING:

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below and on the

machine may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious

personal injury.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

This cutting machine is capable of amputating hands and

feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe all safety

instructions could result in serious injury or death.

Avoid dangerous environment — Do not use the lawn

mower in damp or wet conditions or operate in the rain.

Keep children away — Keep all bystanders, children, and

pets at least 100 ft. away. Stop machine if anyone enters

the area.

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to

the presence of children. Children are often attracted to

the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that

children will remain where you last saw them.

• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the

watchful care of a responsible adult other than the

operator.

• Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.

• Never allow children to operate the machine.

• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,

trees, or other objects that may block your view of a

child.

Dress properly — Wear heavy, long pants, long sleeves,

boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose fitting clothing,

short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Do not wear jewelry

of any kind. They can be caught in moving parts.

Don’t overreach — Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. Overreaching can result in loss of balance.

Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when

wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear

protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve

your footing on slippery surfaces.

Do not leave the mower unattended while running.

Keep hands and feet away from cutting area. Keep clear

of the discharge opening at all times.

Operate the lawn mower only in daylight or good artificial

light.

Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday

glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are NOT

safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of

eye injury. Use face mask if operation is dusty.

Use safety glasses — Always wear eye protection with

side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Use face

mask if operation is dusty.

Use the right appliance — Do not use the lawn mower

for any job except that for which it is intended.

Do not force the lawn mower — It will do the job better

and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Stay alert — Watch what you are doing and use common

sense when operating the lawn mower. Do not operate

the mower while tired, upset or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention

while operating the lawn mower may result in serious

personal injury.

Maintain lawn mower with care — Keep machine in good

working condition. Keep blades sharp and guards in place

and in working order. Replace damaged or unevenly worn

blades before using mower for best performance.

Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals for

proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe work-

ing condition. Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or

wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a complete

stop, and disconnect from power supply before cleaning

the lawn mower, removing the grass catcher, or removing

the mulching plug.

 Replace blade if it is bent or cracked. An unbalanced

blade causes vibration that could damage the motor

drive unit or cause personal injury. Sharpen a dull blade

equally at each end to maintain the balance. Clean the

blade thoroughly and check its balance by supporting it

horizontally on a thin nail through its center hole. The nail

should be in a horizontal position. If either end of the blade

rotates downward, remove some metal from the heavy

of lower end until the blade is balanced. It is balanced

when neither end drops.

When not in use, mower should be stored indoors in a

dry, locked up place—out of the reach of children. The

extension cord should also be removed and stored in a

separate location out of the reach of children.

Always use safety protective devices. Do not operate the

mower without the entire grass catcher, mulching plug

and rear discharge door in place and working properly.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper operation

and installation of accessories. Only use accessories

approved by the manufacturer.

 To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has

a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and

will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The

appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only

one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension

cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain

a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension

cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This

plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way.

If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse

the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change

the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or exten-

sion cord plug in any way.

 Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should

be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for

the lawn mower. Receptacles are available having built-

in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of

safety.

 Inspect lawn mower cord periodically and if damaged,

have it repaired by an authorized service facility. Inspect

extension cords periodically and replace if damaged.

Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

 Warning — To prevent electric shock use only with an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use, such as SW,

SOW, STW, STOW, SJW, SJOW, SJTW, or SJTOW.

 Extension Cord - Make sure your extension cord set is in

good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure

to use one heavy enough to carry the current your prod-

uct will draw. For lengths less than 50 feet, No. 14 AWG

extension cord should be used. An undersized cord will

cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. To reduce the likelihood of disconnection of

lawn mower cord from the cord set during operating use

the cord retainer described in this manual (Figure 8).

 Under normal usage the catcher assembly is subject

to deterioration and wear and should, therefore, be

frequently checked for replacement. Only use identical

replacement catcher assemblies.

 Don’t Abuse Cord — Never pull lawn mower by cord or

yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from

heat, oil, and sharp edges.

 Risk of death or serious personal injury if power lines or

electric cords are contacted. Never operate mower over

electrical sources, cords, or wires.

Clear the work area before each use. Remove all objects

such as rocks, tree nuts, sticks, metal, wire, bones, toys,

or other objects which can be thrown by the blade. Stay

behind the handle when the motor is running.

Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, property stakes, or other

hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall

accident.

Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.

Mow across the face of slopes, never up and down.

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on

slopes.

Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material

toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also,

avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction,

which may cause the material to ricochet back toward

the operator.

Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.

Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident. Walk,

never run.

Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,

trees, or other objects that may block your view.

Do not pull the mower backward unless absolutely nec-

essary. If you must back the mower away from a wall or

obstruction, first look down and behind to avoid tripping

or pulling the mower over your feet.

Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid

discharging material against a wall or obstruction. Ma-

terial may ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the

blade when crossing gravel surfaces.

Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe

injuries to persons. The lawn should always be carefully

examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.

If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these

steps:

• Stop the lawn mower by releasing the blade control

lever, wait until the blade comes to a complete stop,

and disconnect extension cord from power supply.

• Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage.

• Replace the blade if it is damaged in any way. Repair

any damage before restarting and continuing to operate

the mower.

 Stop the motor, wait until the blade comes to a complete

stop and disconnect extension cord from power supply

before unclogging the chute. The cutting blade continues

to rotate for a few seconds after the motor is shut off.

Never place any part of the body in the blade area until

you are sure the blade has stopped rotating.

If the mower should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the

motor, disconnect the extension cord from the power

supply, and check immediately for the cause. Replace

the blade if it is unevenly worn or damaged in any way.

Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

Service on the product must be performed by qualified

repair personnel only. Service or maintenance performed

by unqualified personnel could result in injury to the user

or damage to the product.

Use only authorized replacement parts when servicing

the product. Use identical replacement blades only. Use

of unauthorized parts may create a risk of serious injury

to the user, or damage to the product.

Maintain or replace safety instructions labels, as

necessary.

Disconnect from power supply — Disconnect extension

cord from power supply before storing, servicing, or

changing accessories such as blades. Such preventive

safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool ac-

cidentally.

Stop the unit and disconnect the extension cord from

power supply when not in use. Carry or push the unit with

the motor stopped and the extension cord disconnected

from the power supply.

ELECTRICAL

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power

tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire

grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated

from the internal metal motor components with protecting in-

sulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.

WARNING:

The double insulated system is intended to protect

the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s

internal insulation. Observe all normal safety precautions

to avoid electrical shock.

NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires

extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be

performed only by a qualified service technician. For service,

we suggest you return the tool to your nearest authorized

service center for repair. Always use original factory replace-

ment parts when servicing.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should

be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, AC only

(normal household current), 60 Hz. A substantial voltage

drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If

your product does not operate when plugged into an outlet,

double-check the power supply.

GFCI

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be

provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the prod-

uct. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection

and may be used for this measure of safety.

EXTENSION CORDS

When using a power product at a considerable distance from

a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has

the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in

overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine

the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only

round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories

(UL) should be used.

When working outdoors with a product, use an extension

cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is

designated with “W-A” or “W” on the cord’s jacket such

as an extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,

STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A..

Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or ex-

posed wires and cut or worn insulation.

or other metal posts. Such objects could damage the

blade or be accidentally thrown by the mower in any di-

rection and cause serious personal injury to the operator

and others.

For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the

total length of the grass.

When cutting heavy grass, reduce walking speed to allow

for more effective cutting and a proper discharge of the

clippings.

Do not cut wet grass. It will stick to the underside of the

deck and prevent proper bagging or mulching of grass

clippings.

New or thick grass may require a narrower cut or a higher

cutting height.

Clean the underside of the mower deck after each use

to remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and any other

accumulated debris.

NOTE: Always stop mower, allow blades to completely

stop, and disconnect power supply before cleaning un-

derneath the mower.

ous personal injury if power lines or electric cords are
