3. This mower should be grounded while

in use to reduce the risk of injury to the

operator from electric shock. The mower is

equipped with an approved three-conduc-

tor cord and three-prong grounding-type

plug to ﬁ t the proper grounding-type re-

ceptacle. The green or green and yellow

conductor in the cord is the grounding

wire. Never connect the green or green and

yellow wire to a live terminal. See Figure

14 for plug conﬁ guration.

An adapter is available for connecting

plugs to two-prong receptacles. The green-

colored rigid ear, lug, or the like, must be

connected to a permanent ground, such as

a properly grounded outlet box.

Provide Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

(GFCI) protection on the circuit or outlet

to be used for the mower. You may use

receptacles with built-in GFCI protection

for this safety measure.

Connecting Extension Cord

The mower has a built-in extension cord retainer.

This cord hitch prevents accidental disconnec-

tion of the power cord during use. The cord

hitch is mounted onto the handle below the

control panel.

Extension Cord Management

When mowing with an extension cord attached to

mower, start the ﬁ rst row closest to the electrical

outlet being used and mow away from outlet.

1. Place most of the extension cord close to

the electrical outlet, out of the path of the

mower.

2. Start in direction where extension cord side

of mower is closest to the outlet. Begin

mowing in the area closest to the outlet

and mow in a back and forth manner.

Note: Keep the cord on cut portion of lawn

and out of the path of the mower.

3. Avoid mowing in circles as cord will be

harder to manage.

Circuit Breaker Protection

This mower is equipped with a circuit breaker

located on the top of mower control panel (see

Figure 19). The circuit breaker provides over-

current protection to the mower motor should

the blade become jammed by grass clogged in

the output chute or other obstruction.

If the circuit breaker should trip during use, the

white circuit breaker button will pop up out of

the control panel and the electric motor and the

blade will stop rotating.

Figure 19 - Circuit Breaker

Circuit

Breaker

Note: When mowing in the corded mode if

the mower stops but the white circuit breaker

button has not popped up, release the bail and

re-start the mower.

Fully seat the extension cord on

the mower connector. Failure to

do so could lead to overheating

of mower. This could cause a ﬁ re

that results in personal injury to

you or others.

WARNING

The table below shows the correct size

extension cord to use depending on cord

length and nameplate ampere rating. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gauge cord.

The smaller the gauge number, the heavier

the cord. To reduce the risk of disconnec-

tion of mower from the extension cord dur-

ing operation, use the cord hitch described

in this manual.

Be aware of extension cord while

operating mower. Be careful not

to trip over cord. Keep cord away

from mower blade at all times.

WARNING

1. Plug the extension cord into the mower

connector (see Figure 15).

2. Create a loop in the extension cord and

insert the loop through the bottom of the

cord retainer (see Figure 16).

3. Pull the loop tight around the molded cord

hitch (see Figure 17).

Note: An optional method of retaining the

extension cord is shown in Figure 18. Use this

method with larger-gauge cords that may not

ﬁ t into the extension cord retainer.

Resetting the Breaker

1. Fully release the bail handle.

2. Remove the key.

3. Unplug the mower power cord from exten-

sion cord.

4. Press the white circuit breaker button back

into the housing to reset (see Figure 20).

The button should stay depressed when

released. Plug the mower power cord back

into the extension cord, if you are using

110V power.

5. Restart mower (see Starting Mower for

instructions).
