warnings and instructions in this manual and on unit. Restrict use of
this mower to persons who read, understand and follow warnings and
instructions in this manual and on unit.
• STORE IDLE MOWER INDOORS. Always store with safety key
removed. Mowers should be stored indoors in dry, secured area – out
of reach of children.
• DON'T FORCE MOWER. It will do the job better and with less
likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
• USE RIGHT APPLIANCE. Do not use the mower for any job except
that for which it is intended.
• DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can
be caught in moving parts. Rubber gloves, long pants and substantial,
non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
• USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use
safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, complying with
applicable safety standards and, when needed, a face shield. Also use
face or dust mask if operation is dusty. This applies to all persons in the
work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety
shoes and dust collection systems when specified or required. Safety
glasses or the like are available at extra cost at your local dealer or
Black & Decker Service Center.
• DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry charger by cord or yank it to
disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges.
• MAINTAIN MOWER WITH CARE. Keep cutting edge clean and sharp
for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect mower cord
periodically and if damaged, have it repaired by authorized service
facility. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
• AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Donʼt carry mower with safety
key inserted in switch housing. Be sure bail handle is not engaged while
inserting safety key.
• BEFORE USING, always visually inspect to see that the blade, blade
fasteners and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged. Replace
worn or damaged blades and fasteners in sets to preserve balance.
Inspect the mower cord - ensure it is in good condition. Cord insulation
must be intact with no cracks or deterioration.

• USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always
use the proper size extension cords with the tool – that is, proper wire
size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current
the tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. For proper size
cords see chart below.
