READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electric lawn
mowers, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of re,
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.
a) FOR ALL DOUBLE-INSULATED LAWN
MOWERS
1) Replacement Parts
When servicing use only identical
replacement parts.
2) Polarized Connections
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
mower has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other) and will require the use
of a polarized extension cord. The plug will t
into a polarized extension cord only one way.
If the plug does not t fully into the extension
cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does
not t, obtain a correct polarized extension
cord. A polarized extension cord will require
the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug
will t into the polarized wall outlet only one
way. If the plug does not t fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does
not t, contact a qualied electrician to install
the proper wall outlet. Do not change the
mower plug, extension cord receptacle, or
extension cord plug in any way.
b) FOR ALL LAWN MOWERS
1) Avoid dangerous envirionments - 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 jewellery. 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 lawn mower - 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

outdoor use, such as SW, SOW, STW,
STOW, SJW, SJOW, SJTW, or SJTOW.
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 25’ or 50’ (7.2 m or
15.2 m) feet, No. 16/16 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 gauge. The smaller the
gauge 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
properly 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 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

17. Always wear eye protection when
operating mower.
18. See manufacturer’s instructions for
proper operation and installation of
accessories. Only use accessories
approved by the manufacturer.
II. SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and
fall accidents, which can result in severe
injury. Operation on all slopes requires extra
caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not
mow it.
1. Mow across the face of slopes; never
up and down. Exercise extreme caution
when changing direction on slopes.
2. Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain
could cause a slip and fall accident. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
3. Do not mow on wet grass or excessively
steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a
slip and fall accident.
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 mower
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
mower.
4. Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects
that may block your view of a child.

other debris build-up.
4. If you strike a foreign object, stop and
inspect the mower. Repair, if necessary,
before starting.
5. Never make any adjustments or repairs
with the motor running.
