Double-Insulated Appliances
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means are
provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-
insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge
of the system, and should be performed only by qualified
service personnel at an authorized Snow Joe
dealer. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated
appliance is marked with the words "Double Insulation" or
"Double Insulated." The symbol
may also be marked on the appliance.
DOUBLE-INSULATED: GROUNDING NOT
REQUIRED. WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY
IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
This electric reel mower is double-insulated, eliminating the
need for a separate grounding system. Use only identical
replacement parts. Read the instructions before servicing
double-insulated appliances. Use this lawn mower only as
described in this manual.

IMPORTANT!

• Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or other obstruction.
• Never leave a running machine unattended.
• Stop the engine (motor) and wait until the blade comes to
a complete stop before cleaning the machine, removing
the grass collection bag, changing accessories, or
unclogging the discharge guard.
• Operate the machine only in daylight or in good
artificial light.
• Do not operate the machine when you are tired or under
the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Never operate the lawn mower in wet grass. Always be
sure of your footing; walk, never run, with the lawn mower.
• If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally, stop
the engine (motor) and immediately check the machine
to ascertain the cause. Vibration is generally a signal of
trouble.
• Keep blades sharp.
• Keep hands and feet away from the cutting area.
• Always wear eye protection when operating the machine.
• Objects struck by the lawn mower blade can cause severe
injuries. The mowing area should always be carefully
examined and cleared of all objects prior to each mowing.
• If the lawn mower strikes a foreign object, follow these
steps:
i) Stop the lawn mower by releasing the ON/OFF
switch levers.
ii) Unplug the power cord.
iii) Inspect for damage.
iv) Repair any damage before restarting and operating
the lawn mower.
• Only use identical replacement blades.
Slope Operation
Slopes are major factors 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.
• Mow across the face of slopes; never mow slopes
following an up and down traverse. Exercise extreme
caution when changing direction on a slope.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. These may cause an unexpected slip or fall.
• Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident.
• Do not mow near drop offs, ditches, or embankments.
You could lose your footing or balance.
