READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electric lawn
mowers, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:
WARNING: Risk of injury could occur if
the lawn mower is operated without the catcher assembly attached.
WARNING: The use of any other
accessory or attachment might increase the risk of injury
FOR ALL DOUBLE-INSULATED LAWN MOWERS
1) Replacement parts: When servicing use
only identical replacement parts.
2) Polarized appliance connections To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
FOR ALL LAWN MOWERS
1) Avoid dangerous environment - don’t use
lawn mowers in damp or wet locations.
2) Don’t use in rain.
3) Keep children away - all visitors should be
kept a safe distance from work area.
4) Dress properly - do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Use of rubber gloves and footwear is recommended when working outdoors.
5) Use safety glasses - always use face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
6) Use right appliance - do not use lawn mower for any job except that for which it is intended.
7) Ground fault circuit interrupter (gfci) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the lawn mower. Receptacles are available having built-in gfci protection and may be used for this measure of safety.
8) Warning - to prevent electric shock use only with an extension cord suitable for Outdoor use, such as sw-a, sow-a, stw-a, stow-a, sjw-a, sjow-a, sjtw-a, or Sjtow-a.
9) Extension cord - make sure your extension cord set is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. For lengths less than feet 14/12_no. 25/50_awg extension cord should be used. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. (Note: table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number the heavier the cord.) To reduce the likelihood of disconnection of lawn mower cord from the cord set during operating:
i) Make a knot as shown in figure 1, or ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining
straps or connectors described in this manual.
10) Don’t abuse cord - never pull lawn mower by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
11) Don’t force lawn mower - it will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
12) Don’t overreach - keep proper footing and balance at all times.
13) Stay alert - watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate lawn mower when you are tired.
14) Disconnect lawn mower - disconnect the lawn mower from the power supply when not in use, before servicing, when changing accessories such as blades, and the like.
15) Store idle lawn mower indoors - when not
3-in-1 Lawn mower EN
1110
in use, lawn mower should be stored in an indoor dry and locked-up place - out of reach of children.
16) Maintain lawn mower with care - keep cutting edges sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect lawn mower cord periodically and if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
17) Keep guards in place and in working order.
18) Keep blades sharp.
19) Keep hands and feet away from cutting area.
20) Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe injuries to persons. The lawn should always be carefully examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.
21) If lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these steps:
i) Stop lawn mower. Release the switch. ii) Unplug power cord. iii) Inspect for damage. iv) Repair any damage before restarting
and operating the lawn mower.
22) Use identical replacement blades only.

4. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. You could lose your footing or balance.

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is
not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.
2. Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.
3. Never allow children to operate the machine.
