IMPORTANT!

Safety Instructions

All Operators Must Read These

Instructions Before Use

Always follow these safety guidelines. Failure to do so may

result in serious bodily injury or death.

General Safety WARNINGS!

When using this cordless lawn mower, basic safety

precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of

re, electric shock and personal injury. These precautions

include:

mWARNING! Do not operate without the entire grass

catcher, discharge guard, rear guard or other safety protective

devices in place and in proper working order.

mWARNING! The use of any other accessory or

attachment might increase the risk of injury.

mWARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, inspect the

catcher assembly frequently and replace with recommended

replacement if there are signs of wear or deterioration.

Before using the mower, take the time to familiarize yourself

with the controls, especially how to stop the mower in

an emergency. The only individuals who should use the

mower are those who have a thorough understanding of the

instructions and who know how to operate the machine.

Children should never be allowed access to the mower.

Retain this manual for future reference and reread it at the start

of each mowing season.

mWARNING! Contact with moving parts may cause

entanglement, dismemberment or other serious bodily

injury. Always keep body parts (i.e. hands, feet) a safe

distance away from moving parts. Ensure all covers and

guards are securely in place before use.

Hot surfaces (i.e. the motor) may ignite ammable or

combustible items and cause a re or explosion, which

can result in serious bodily injury. Keep the mower a safe

distance away from ammable or combustible items until

surfaces that are hot have completely cooled. Do not store

the mower near ammable or combustible items.

A damaged blade or worn blade nut may break o the

mower assembly and cause serious injury. Replace the

damaged blade or blade nut before using the mower.

1. Avoid dangerous conditions – Do not use the mower in

the rain or when the grass is damp or wet.

2. Keep children, bystanders and pets away – Always

keep children and spectators a safe distance away from

the mower during operation and as the machine cools.

3. Dress properly – Always wear personal safety gear (i.e.

glasses, rubber gloves, protective footwear and dust

masks) and proper clothing when using the mower. Loose

clothing, long hair or jewelry may get caught in the moving

parts.

4. Use the right appliance – Do not use the lawn mower

for any applications other than those for which it was

intended.

5. Do not force the lawn mower – It will perform better with

less likelihood of personal or mechanical injury if it is used

at the rate for which it was designed.

6. Do not overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at

all times.

7. Stay alert – Always be alert and watch what you are

doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the lawn

mower when you are tired or under the inuence of

alcohol or drugs.

8. Disconnect the lawn mower – Turn OFF and remove

safety key when the mower is not in use, before servicing

it, when changing accessories and when performing any

other maintenance task.

9. Store idle lawn mower indoors – When not in use, the

lawn mower should be stored indoors in a dry, locked

place out of the reach of children.

10. Maintain the lawn mower with care – Keep cutting

edges sharp and clean for best and safest performance.

11. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

protection – Protective equipment such as safety glasses,

a dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, and

hearing protection, when used for appropriate conditions,

will reduce the possibility of personal injuries.

12. Avoid unintentional starting – Ensure the switch is in

the OFF position before insert the safety key, or before

picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with

your nger on the switch or charging power tools with the

switch ON can lead to accidents.

13. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before starting

the power tool – A wrench or a key left attached to a

rotating part of the power tool may result in personal

injury.

14. Keep cutting blades sharp and clean – Properly

maintained cutting blades with sharp edges are less likely

to bind and are easier to control.

15. Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting blade

– Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut

when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is o when

clearing jammed material. A moment of inattention while

operating the product may result in serious personal injury.

16. If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these

steps:

i) Stop the lawn mower by releasing the start/stop switch

bar lever.

ii) Remove the safety key.

iii) Inspect for damage.

iv) Repair any damage before restarting and operating

the lawn mower.

17. Only use identical replacement blades and

other genuine parts.

18. Keep guards in place and in proper working order.

Mowing Tips

mWARNING! Inspect the area prior to mowing and

remove all the stones, sticks, wires and other foreign objects

that could be picked up and thrown by the rotating blade.

Failure to comply not only will damage the mower blade, but

can also lead to serious personal injury.

• Be sure to check the mowing blade periodically for signs

of wear and sharpen it at least once per year, as described

in the maintenance section.

NOTE: A sharp blade will greatly enhance the

performance of the mower, especially when cutting tall

blades of grass.

• When cutting thick grass, reduce your walking speed

in order to allow for a more eective cut and a proper

discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut

o one-third or less from the total length of the grass. The

average lawn should be approximately 1.5 to 2 in. (3.8 to

5 cm) long during cool months, and more than 2 in. (5 cm)

long during hot months. If there is growth, the lawn should

be cut in the fall.

• The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same

height and in alternate directions.

• When crossing any gravelled surfaces, release the switch

bar lever to turn o the mower. The stones can be picked

up and thrown by the rotating blade.

• Set the mower to the highest cutting height when mowing

on uneven ground or in tall weeds.

mWARNING! If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor

and remove the safety key. Thoroughly inspect the mower and

repair any damage before resuming work.

• IMPORTANT! Never open the ejector ap when the grass

collection bag has been detached (to be emptied) and the

motor is still running. A rotating blade can cause serious

injuries!

• Always carefully fasten the ejector ap and grass

collection bag. Switch o the motor before emptying the

grass collection bag. Always ensure that a safe distance

(provided by the length of the long handles) is maintained

between the user and the mower housing. Be especially

careful when mowing and changing direction on slopes

and inclines.

• Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear

and long trousers. Always mow across an incline (not up

and down).

• For safety reasons, the lawn mower may not be used to

mow inclines with gradients exceeding 15 degrees.

• Use special caution when backing up and pulling the lawn

mower towards you as such maneuvering of the machine

poses a tripping hazard.

Maintenance + Care

mWARNING! Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting

the mower, disconnect the power supply by plugging out the

safety key and verify that all moving parts have come to a

complete stop.

General

• Always keep the mower clean and free of grass, dirt or

other debris.

• Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease.

• After each cutting session, remove accumulated grass

clippings and debris using either a dry cloth or handbrush.

You may also clean the equipment with a damp cloth and

some soft, non-abrasive soap. Do not use cleaning agents

or harsh solvents as they may damage the equipment's

plastic components. Make sure that no water penetrates

the equipment's interior as intake of water can destroy the

switch/plug mechanism and the electric motor.

• Do not clean the lawn mower with running water,

particularly with high-pressure water.

• Check all nuts, bolts and screws for proper tightness

before each use.

• Frequently inspect the grass collection bag assembly for

signs of wear and replace immediately with a genuine

Snow Joe

+ Sun Joe

part if damage is found.

• Replace excessively worn or damaged parts immediately.

• To maximize your mower's longevity, all screwed parts,

including the wheels and axles, should be cleaned and

lubricated. There are no parts inside the equipment which

require additional maintenance or lubrication.

Blade Maintenance

IMPORTANT: The mower blade is sharp and can cause severe

personal injury if handled incorrectly. Wrap the blade or wear

protective gloves, and use extra caution when handling.

The steel blade is designed to provide a ne cut in long or

tough grass. Deterioration in the quality of cut indicates blade

wear or damage. Follow these steps to determine if the blade

needs to be resharpened or replaced:

1. Disconnect the power supply to the mower by removing

the safety key.

2. Turn the mower on its side to expose the underside of the

blade housing.

3. Check the blade.

a. If the blade is blunt or has minor wear, then resharpen.

Contact an authorized Snow Joe

+ Sun Joe

service

center.

b. If the blade shows signs of major wear or damage (i.e.

gouged, bent), replace. Please call Snow Joe

Sun Joe

customer service for assistance at

1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).

mWARNING! An excessively vibrating mower indicates

that the blade is not properly balanced or has become

deformed from striking an object. In this case, the blade must

be repaired or replaced. Please follow the proper maintenance

customer service center for assistance at 1-866-SNOWJOE

(1-866-766-9563).

Blade Replacement

IMPORTANT: Only use original replacement parts specied for

this mower.

You can purchase a replacement blade (Model MJ401C-BLD)

and other genuine replacement parts by visiting us online at

snowjoe.com or calling our toll-free customer service helpline

at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563). The use of parts that

do not meet the original equipment specications may lead to

improper performance of the lawn mower, may compromise

operator safety and will void the manufacturer's warranty.

1. Disconnect the safety key to the mower.

2. Turn the mower on its side to expose the underside of the

blade housing.

3. Use a cloth to grip the blade or wear heavy-duty gloves.

4. Using the spanner provided, remove the bolt and

the washer securing the blade by turning the bolt

counterclockwise, then carefully remove the blade

(Fig. 14).

5. Fit the new blade, the washer and the bolt back on

following the same steps in reverse order (Fig. 15).

Storage

Follow the steps below to prepare the lawn mower for storage:

1. Remove the safety key from the slot.

2. Clean the mower with a damp cloth or hand brush.

3. Inspect the mower carefully for worn, loose or damaged

parts. Check connections and screws and tighten if

necessary. Pay special attention to the mower blade and

replace/sharpen if it shows signs of wear. Refer to the

Maintenance and Care section.

4. Store the mower indoors in a dry, clean and cool area

out of the reach of children. Do not store the unit next to

corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and rock salt.

5. Do not cover the lawn mower with a solid plastic sheet.

Plastic coverings trap moisture around the mower, which

can damage the unit.

6. The handle on your lawn mower can be folded for

compact storage. Start by loosening the handle knobs on

each side of the upper handle and fold down the upper

handle (Fig. 16).
