Inspect the lawnmower cord periodically and if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service facility. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place out of reach of children. Always remove the battery from the mower before storing. Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a power mower. Operators 14 years old and over should fully read and understand the operator’s manual and safety rules.
A fully depleted battery needs about 30 minutes to full recharge. The first thing to consider when looking for a self-propelled lawnmower is what kind of yard you have. The size and shape of your yard, as well as the kind of grass you have and the amount of slope on your lawn will affect what kind of lawn mower you need. For example, if you have a flat lawn, then you may want to consider a front-wheel drive lawn mower, instead of a rear-wheel drive lawn mower which is better for sloped yards.
Off the clock, his faith and love for his family are his top priorities, and you’ll typically find him in the kitchen, on his bike (he’s an Ironman), or taking folks out for a day of fishing on Tampa Bay. It has a flip-top cap that’s easy to grip with your finger and thumb even when you’re wearing gloves. The translucent window to view your oil level is a little tough to see through. It’s okay in bright sunshine, just not in the shade.
HOWEVER, if I had to buy an electric mower this is one that I would seriously consider.Compared to other electric mowers like the Sun Joe, Ryobi, or the Dewalt, this one has a tad more experience. When it comes to outdoor power equipment, Greenworks Pro puts the emphasis on power. We understand that Homeowners and Prosumers take on jobs of all sizes and need pro-grade products with long-lasting performance. Our high-efficiency brushless motors deliver Better than Gas™ performance – without the noise, mess and fumes that gas powered products produce. It all adds up to give you the line of outdoor power equipment you deserve.
With an extra battery on hand, you can now rip through grass in the neighborhood without the hassle of gas. The 2AH battery charges within 30 minutes so you can get back to work and finish that job. Walk-behind push-mowers are powered by your strength, where you move them by pushing them over the grass you want you cut.
You can typically get faster acceleration if you want from electric (ever ride in a Tesla?), and we like the extra attention here. We turned it on and off quite a bit, but were able to clear our driveway, patio, garage area, and move debris from all of our flower beds. We loved that we were able to blow leaves from anywhere no matter how cramped or cluttered, but the battery lasted 50 minutes at most. The Greenworks Pro 80V Cordless Brushless Axial Blower is a smart choice for those who have small or hard-to-reach outdoor areas. Its limited battery life is a major downfall, though.
Due to its larger rear wheels, easy start and quiet motor, the Greenworks Pro 60V Cordless 21″ Self-Propelled Brushless Lawn Mower is a joy to use, despite a couple of quirks mentioned earlier. I expect the steel deck to hold up under punishing use for years. Now I just have to purchase an extra battery to handle my large backyard. The handle houses a “Turbo-Mode” button, self-propelled drive-speed lever, and a battery life indicator so you’ll always know how much battery life is left. If you’re using two batteries, the mower will completely deplete one and then automatically switch to the other rather than use both simultaneously.
Don’t overreach, keep proper footing and balance at all times. Many injuries occur as a result of the mower being pulled over the foot during a fall caused by slipping or tripping. If you feel you are losing your footing, release the control handle immediately and the blade will stop rotating within three seconds. I invested in the mower/two battery kit, the string trimmer and the leaf blow. Due to health issues, I had been paying for my lawn to be mowed for over a decade, so the initial investment was large (~$1,000), but when I did the math, the ROI would be one year .
Easy to Switch Between Different Functions – You can mulch, bag or side discharge your clippings with the Greenworks Pro 80V, which is handy. But most importantly, it’s super simple and fast to switch between these different options. So whether you want to collect your clippings or mulch them and leave them on your lawn to feed it, this mower has you covered.
