which can result in severe eye
damage. Always wear safety glasses or
eye shields while operating your lawn
mower or performing any adjustments or
repairs. We recommend a wide vision
safety mask over the spectacles or
standard safety glasses with side
shields, available at Sears.
• Keep your eyes and mind on your
mower and the area being cut. Do not let
other interests distract you.
• Guard against electric shock. Repair or
replace damaged mower cord or
extension cord immediately.
• Don't abuse the cord. Never pull
lawnmower by the cord. Disconnect by
gently pulling the plug, not the cord.
• Do not run the motor indoors.
• Don't force the mower. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed. When mowing on rough
surfaces or in high grass, select a higher
cutting position.
• Keep away from blade area. Be aware of
the risk of injury. Keep hands and feet
away from the blade.
• DANGER: DO NOT attempt to remove
cut material or unclog debris from under
mower deck while blade is moving, or
you will be seriously injured.
• If mower stalls, release operator
presence control switch and wait for
blade to stop rotating. Unplug cord
before attempting to remove anything
from under mower deck. Thoroughly
inspect and have any damage repaired
before restarting and operating mower.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE:

• Check the blade and the motor mounting
bolts often to be sure they are tightened
properly.
• Check all bolts, nuts and screws at
frequent intervals for proper tightness to
be sure mower is in safe working
condition.
• To reduce fire hazard, keep the motor
free of grass, leaves or excessive grease
and oil.
• Always keep the blade on your mower
sharp.
• Keep mower dry and clean. Always use
a clean damp cloth when cleaning.
Never use brake fluids, gasoline,

petroleum-based products, solvents, or
water to clean mower.
• Do not mow if switch does not turn
mower on and off. Have defective switch
replaced at Sears Service Center. • Check damaged parts. Before further
use of the mower, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, and any other conditions that
may affect mower operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by a
qualified service technician.
• When servicing use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Servicing
of this mower should be performed only
by a qualified service technician. For
repair service we suggest you return
mower to your nearest Sears Service
Center.
• When replacing blade, use only identical
Craftsman replacement blade. Use of
any other blade may result in serious
personal injury or damage to your mower.
• Store mower inside. When not in use,
mower should be stored indoors in a
garage, basement, etc. Storage area
should be a dry, locked-up place – out of
reach of children.
• Maintain mower with care. Keep blade
sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Your Mower is DOUBLE INSULATED to
give you added safety. This means that it
is constructed throughout with TWO
separate "layers" of electrical insulation, or
one DOUBLE thickness of insulation
between you and the tool's electrical system.
Tools built with this insulation system are
not intended to be grounded. As a result,
your mower is equipped with a two-prong
plug which permits you to use extension
cords without concern for maintaining a
ground connection.
NOTE: DOUBLE INSULATION does not
take the place of normal safety precautions
when operating this mower. The insulation
system is for added protection against
injury resulting from a possible electrical
insulation failure within the tool.
CAUTION: Repair or replace damaged
cords immediately. Use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts.
