Need help - Repairing Electric lawn Mower
Greetings! I have a Black and Decker electric lawn Mower. I have
problem with the handle - which you have to grip to start the lawn mower. Now I have to grip really very hard to start and mow the lawn. Does any one had this problem? How did you solve it? This mower is about 4 years old. With thanks. |

Sounds like the switch needs replacing OR (I know someone will give me heck about this) just jumper the switch so you won't need it. It's a safety feature. J If you're having to grip (squeeze) the handle very hard perhaps it is just a "mechanical" adjustment that is needed. Griping the handle activates the switch, take a look at how it works & see if you can tweek the handle or the switch. maybe the nub on the switch is worn. Not a great idea to defeat the switch (but I've done that sort of thing), it's a safety feature. cheers Bob |
