Starting + Stopping
Do not switch on the lawn mower until it has been completely
assembled. Before switching on the unit, always check the
appliance cord and the extension cord for signs of damage.
Use only intact cords.
mWARNING! Damaged cords pose a severe risk of injury.
Replace damaged cords immediately.
mWARNING! Before switching on the lawn mower, make
sure that it is not in contact with any foreign objects. Keep
your hands and feet a safe distance away from the rotating
mower blade and the ejector opening. Failure to comply with
these warnings can result in severe personal injury.
IMPORTANT: Do not start the lawn mower in tall grass.
1. Place the unit on a level lawn surface.
2. Push a loop of the extension cord through the slot on the
extension cord restraint holder from the opposite side and
around the cord restraint hook. Insert the appliance cord
into the extension cord (Fig. 9).
NOTE: Do not plug the extension cord into the outlet until it
had been secured with the extension cord restraint holder and
connected to the lawn mower's appliance cord. Only use a
UL-rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use. Do not
use an extension cord over 100 ft (30 m). See Extension Cord
Chart on page 2.
3. Place the bulk of the extension cord on the lawn closest to
the starting point.
4. Before starting the lawn mower, hold the handle assembly
with both hands and tilt the handle downward to slightly
raise the front of the lawn mower. This will reduce the risk
of lawn damage during start-up (Fig. 10).
5. To start the lawn mower, press and hold the safety lock
button while pulling the switch bar lever toward you. Once
the machine powers on, release the safety lock button
