The manual is on the DeWalt website (linked from Black & Decker). http://www.dewaltservicenet.com/documents/English/Instruction%20Manual/90512518,MM575.pdf

Hello, Please ensure you have power to the mower. Ensure you press the "start" button in and hold it in while you pull the start bar up. The button must be held in. Please contact us at 800-791-9458, if you need further assistance. Thank you, Amerisun Customer Support

Will have to get back to you. I replaced the mower I bought the bag for. Gave it to my son with the paperwork. I will check with him and let you know.

Bonnie, I've had my mower for about 4 years and I haven't had to replace the battery. The instruction manual indicates that you should take the mower to an authorized Black and Decker Service Center. You'll probably be able to find one online. Hope this helps.

Call their support and have the charger replaced, the one that came with the mower was a 42.5V 1A output and had the exact same problem. The new one (1/2 the size) is 36V 1A and actually works as advertised. You may need to call until you get a rep that doesn't say 'call us back when the mower stops working completely' , that was the first response from some girl I talked to. I called back until they shipped the new one out, the later reps were very courteous and didn't take the same attitude. Their email support works pretty good as well. There is apparently some 'issue' with some of their charges that dont change the LED color when everything is 'okay' or something weird, thats at least what I was originally told.

Yep, I've had an electric hedge trimmer for over 20 years. I agree with Kajunman...check to see if the vents are blocked with crud, and use a brush to clean them out. If it doesn't work anymore, my guess would be your motor burned out or there's a loose wire...

I do not recommend buying this lawn mower! the battery runs out quickly & you have to keep recharging it. It finally died only after 2 years of use. I recommend you buy an electric lawn mower if you don't want to use gas.

I have used this Battery in lawn tractor mower for three years. Some time after a long cold winter it fails to start the mower and I have jumped started it with my car.I have planed to put a small charger on it, but I have no outlet under my porch where I keep it.

I don't know regarding this particular model......see my scathing review of the Remington 60-volt mower (& Company) now discontinued!!

Yes, based upon references I have seen. See my comments regarding mower obsolescence.

How old is the mower? Has the setting selector been damaged? Usually there are notches for the setting lever to be placed in? Not knowing the condition of the area in question can not suggest a remedy. Sorry.

Karen: Can you be more detailed with your symptioms, please? * Was the engine running when it shut down? * Did it stop at once, like you turned off the switch, or loose power and sptit and sputter before stoppong/ * Will the engine crank with the starter when you turn the switch? First, eliminate the obvious" * Did it run out of gas? Open the tank to insure there is gas in the tank. You may need a clean stick to reach to the bottom. * Do the headlights work? * Does the starter work, or is it dead too? * Dose your mower have a fuel shutoff valve? Is it open? (handle aligned with the fuel line) * Check the parking brake: Up to start, down to run. * Also, won't start with PTO engaged. Make sure it's pushed in all the way. * Raise the seat and look for any loose wires or connection. * Make sure your battery cables are tight at both the battery and the tractor ends. It's bound to be something simple. Oh, yes: What brand and model is the motor? It will likely be a Koeler Comand Pro model, or a Kawasaki engine. Write back with the answers and if you don't find it yourself before hand, we will continue our search. Regards; Mike G.

Thanks for the info! I opened up the housing and found that the plastic pin that forms a 'pivot' for the orange handle was partially broken. No hope of repair without buying new parts. So (like you), I rigged the switch to be permanently on! Still have all my fingers & toes after one mow.

My trimmer also died I'm going to find out if Greenworks really does have a warranty. It should last more than 4 sessions.

My mower wouldn't start either. I just tugged on the cord that goes to the locking device and had no more trouble. Make sure the cord is tight enough.

Yes, I did. I got one locally. They run about $500. A little spendy but work great. I am very pleased with the mower.

I posted a review a month or so ago. Don't know what happened to it. I didn't like this machine. A mulching mower works much better for me.
