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.
Discard the box and package in compliance with local regulations. Never make any adjustments or repairs with the motor running. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to ensure the equipment is in safe working condition. DoMow across the face of slopes; never mow up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
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.
The 2Ah battery takes 30 minutes to reach a full charge. While it’s not a terribly long time to wait, you will want to plug it in ahead of your planned yard work. It’s a self-propelled mower with variable speed control, single-lever height adjustment, and 10-inch wheels. Also, it’s a nice touch that this comes with a spare blade.
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.
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.
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.
Never operate the mower with damaged safety devices. Remove the battery pack from the mower before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing appliances. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the mower accidentally. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to the battery pack, picking up or carrying the mower. Carrying the mower with your finger on the switch or energizing the mower that has the switch on invites accidents. The cutting blade must be approximately parallel to the ground.
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 .
