1. Place most of the extension cord close to the electrical outlet, out of the path of the mower. Attach extension cord to mower.
2. Start in direction where extension cord side of mower is closestto the outlet. Begin mowing in the area closest to the outlet and mow in a back and forth
manner. Note the cord is kept on cut portion of lawn and out of the path of the mower. (Figure 7)
3. Avoid mowing in circles as cord will be harder to manage.

WHEEL HEIGHTADJUSTMENT(FIGURE8)
1. BEFOREMAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS, TURN OFF, UNPLUG MOWER AND WAIT FOR BLADETO STOP.
2. Your mower Featuresthe Black & Decker one touch wheel height adjustment system. This system will adjust all four wheels at the same time.
3. To raise or lower the cutting height. See Figure 8. Rest the palm of your hand on the palm rest and with your fingers, squeeze upward on the finger grip
and hold.
4. While holding the finger grip up you can raise or lower the cutting height. The mulcher has eight blade height adjustment positions. Refer to the scale
and pointer (see Figure 8) at the front of the mower. The pointer will give you the height setting for cutting your lawn. This setting can be a reference for the
next time you want to cut your lawn at the same height. When you have the mulcher at the height you would like, simply release the finger grip to lock the height adjust.
Note: To ensure that the deck is securely locked in one of the eight positions,
press down on the palm rest after releasing the finger grip.

MULCHING TIPS
In the mulching configuration your new mower is designed to re-cut tile grass clippings into short lengths.
These clippings, which are dispersed as you mow will biodegracle quickly and provide nutrients for the lawn.
Set mower at highest cutting height when mowing in rough ground or in tall weed.
Avoid cutting the lawn when it is wet. Wet grass tends to form clumps with the mulching action. The best time to cut your lawn is in the afternoon.
For best results, acl ust the lawnmower cutting height so that the lawnmower cuts
off on y the top third of the grass b ades.
If your lawn is overgrown it may be necessary to increase the cutting height to reduce the pushing effect and prevent overloading the motor.
For extremely heavy mulching make narrower cuts and mow slowly.
Change your cutting pattern _romweek to week. Mow north to south one week
and east to west the next week. This will help prevent matting and graining of the
lawn.
Cleaning out the underside of the mower isclone easiest immediately after mowing (ENSUREMOWER IS UNPLUGGED AND BLADE HAS STOPPED).A rag, crumpled newspaper or paper towels, can be used to wipe out caked clippings.
A clean mowing deck improves the efficiency of the blade and maintains high performance. When cleaning, DO NOT immerse tool in water or squirt it with a
hose or pressure washer. Use only mild soap and clamp cloth to clean the mower. Never letany liquid get inside the mower; never immerse any part of the mower into a liquid.
Before each mowing session unplug the mower and ensure that the blade has stopped. Check all nuts, bolts and screws to ensure proper tightness. Be sure to check the blade fastening system. Inspect the mower cord - ensure it is in good
condition. Cord insulation must be intact with no cracks or deterioration.
IMPORTANT:Toassure product SAFETYand RELIABILITY,repairs, maintenance and ad ustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations. Useon y iclentica rep acement parts.
Inspect and thoroughly clean your mower at the beginning of each mowing season for longer life and better performance.
From time to time turn the mower off and wait for the blade to stop. Then unplug the power cord and turn the mower on its side. Using an ob ect such as a stick or rag, wipe out any accumulation of grass in the blade area. Also clean out any grass or debris which may be packed around the discharge/mulch door area. Be careful of the sharp edges of the blade.
REMOVING AND ATTACHING BLADES(FIGURE9,10,11)
1. RELEASESWITCH LEVERTO TURN MOWER OFF,WAIT FOR THE BLADETO
STOP,AND UNPLUG MOWER!
2. Use a piece of 2x4 wood (about 2 feet long) to keep blade from turning while removing blade nut.
3. Wear gloves. Position wood and remove nut as shown in Figure 9.
4. Remove lower blade spacer, lower insulator washer and blade. (Figure 10)
5. When replacing sharpened or new blade on shoulder of fan, make surethe
"GRASS SIDE" identification on the blade is facing the ground. Placelower
insulator washer over shoulder of the fan. Now place lower blade spacer and
the blade nut on the shaft.
Z_ CAUTION: Do not attempt to unclog the blade chamber by dropping or
tapping the tool on the ground. This can damage the unit. Keep hands clear of blade when cleaning.
DISCHARGING (AVAILABLEAS AN OPTION AT EXTRA COST)
The mower, with optional discharge chute, can be used to discharge grass clippings back to the lawn.
1. Discharging may be necessary if the grass is too long to mulch or the bag fills too quickly.
2. Clippings may be further dispersed, if needed, by blowing them with a yard blowen
3. In heavy grass conditions, a narrower pass may be required
BAGGING
It is recommended to bag the clippings for tile first few spring mowings and the last mowing of the season to discourage diseases.
1. Bagging the clipping is sometimes preferred to reduce tracking of clippings
into pools, hot tubs, and homes.
2. Clippings can be added to your compost bin and used later for a natural fertilizer.
CLEANINGAND STORAGE Warning!Besurethetoolisunplugged.
Removeand clean any debris from tile outside of tile mower and inside of guard before storage. Store under cover. See MAINTENANCE section.
NOTE: Do not store the tool on or ad acent to fertilizers or chemicals. Such storage
can cause rap d corros on to metal parts.
Preventing Corrosion
Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents that greatly accelerate the
corrosion of metals. If you use the tool in areas where fertilizers or chemicals have
been used, the tool should be cleaned immediately afterwards.
Wipe all exposed parts with a damp cloth. You may lubricate only metal parts with a light petroleum based oil. Do not lubricate wheels.
NOTE: Align flats of shaft with flats in lower insulator washer and lower the blade
space. Position wood to keep shaft from turning (Figure 11 ) and then securely tighten blade nut.

SHARPENING AND BALANCING THE BLADE:(FIGURE12,13)
1. BESURETHESWITCH LEVERIS RELEASEDAND THE BLADEHAS STOPPED
AND THECORD UNPLUGGED BEFOREREMOVING THE BLADE.
2. Remove blade from mower. See instructions for removing and attaching blade.
3. Secure blade in a vise as shown in Figure 12.
4. Wear safe b" glasses and be careful not to cut yourself.
5. Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth file or sharpening stone.
6. Check balance of blade by placing centre hole in blade over a nail or screwdriver shank, clamped horizontally in a vise. If either end of the blade rotates down, file off additional material from that end. Blade is properly balanced when neither end drops. (Figure 13)
7. Replace blade on mower and tighten securely.
