CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children or bystanders.
• Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,
particularly small children, and pets.
• Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,
doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure
your vision of a child or bystander. Keep children,
bystanders, helpers and pets at least 100 feet (30m) from
the mower while it is in operation. Stop the machine if
anyone enters the area.
• Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a
power mower. Operators 14 years old and over should
fully read and understand the operator's manual and
safety rules. Only responsible individuals who are
familiar with these rules of safe operation should be
allowed to use this machine.

SERVICE

• When servicing the mower, use only replacement parts
that are listed in this manual. The use of parts that do not
meet the original equipment specifications may lead to
improper performance, and may compromise safety.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the
blade and all moving parts have come to a complete stop.
In order to prevent accidental start-ups, disconnect the
power cord when the mower is not in use.
• Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
• Inspect the lawn mower's power cord and extension cords
regularly, and replace them immediately if they are
damaged. In order to obtain replacement parts, call the
service center.
• Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and grease.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire, keep the motor free of
grass, leaves, and debris build-up.
• Check the blade and the motor mounting bolts for proper
tightness frequently. Visually inspect blade for damage
(e.g., bent, cracked, or worn).
• For best and safest performance, maintain the mower
with care. Keep the mower blade sharp and clean. Mower
blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap the blades or wear
gloves, and use extra caution when servicing.
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be sure
that the mower is in safe working condition.
• Do not tamper with safety devices. Check them regularly
for proper operation.
• After striking a foreign object, stop the motor and
disconnect the power cord. Thoroughly inspect the
mower for any damage. Repair any damage before
operating the mower.
English
• The grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail
shield are subject to wear and damage, which could
expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. As a
safety precaution, check the components frequently and
immediately replace any parts that show signs of wear, or
that are cracked or broken. Use original equipment
manufacturer's (OEM) parts only, as listed in this manual.
• When it is not in use, store the mower indoors in a dry
area, locked up or out of the reach of children.
2.5 DOUBLE INSULATED LAWN
MOWER
• Double insulation eliminates the need for the usual three-
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system. Wherever there is electric current in the mower,
there are two complete sets of insulation to protect the
user. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the
internal metal motor components by protecting insulation.
Servicing a lawn mower with double insulation requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should only
be performed by a qualified service technician. If repairs are
required, call the service center. Always use original factory
replacement parts when servicing.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! To restrict the use of this
mower to people who have read and understand the
warnings and instructions that appear in this manual and on
the mower and who will follow them.

ELECTRICAL

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.
Electrical connection
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 V, AC only (normal
household current), 60 Hz. Do not operate this product on
direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a
loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the product does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.
Extension cords
When using a power tool 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
