OPERATION

The operation of any lawn mower can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, 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 standard safety glasses or a wide vision safety mask worn over spectacles.

HOW TO USE YOUR LAWN MOWER

Your lawn mower is equipped with an operator presence control bar which requires the operator to be positioned behind the lawn mower handle to start and operate the lawn mower.

CAUTION: Federal regulations require a motor control to be installed on this lawn mower in order to minimize the risk of blade contact injury. Do not under any circumstances attempt to defeat the function of the operator control. The blade turns when the motor is running.

EXTENSION CORD RETAINER

This lawn mower is equipped with a cord retainer in order to prevent the extension cord from disconnecting from the power cord while the mower is in use. The cord retainer hangs from the cord guide bar.

NOTE: Do not plug the extension cord into the outlet until it has been connected to the cord retainer and plugged into the mower.

Fold the extension cord in order to form a tight loop near the retainer.

Push the loop through the hole in the retainer.

Slide the loop over the retaining clip, and pull down until the cord is secured.

TO START

Press the start button.

Hold down operator presence control bar to handle.

Mower will begin to operate.

TO STOP

To stop motor, release operator pres- ence control bar.

Let the blade come to a complete stop.

CIRCUIT BREAKER

This mower is equipped with a circuit breaker in order to protect the supply circuit from short-circuit overloads.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS IF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER POPS OUT:

Release the operator presence control bar and allow the mower to stop and cool down for 5 minutes.

After the mower has cooled down, press the circuit breaker in order to reset it. Resume operation.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS IF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER POPS OUT AGAIN SHORTLY AFTER THE FIRST TIME:

Release the operator presence control bar and allow the mower to stop and cool down for 15 to 30 minutes.

After the mower has cooled down, press

the circuit breaker in order to reset it. Resume operation.

If the circuit breaker does not stay in, or if it continues to pop out during operation, contact the Toll-Free Helpline at 1-800- 849-1297.
