Black & Decker and Craftsman brand cordless electric lawnmowers
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Black & Decker is recalling cordless electric lawnmowers sold under both the Black & Decker and Craftsman brand names due to a safety defect. The motor and blade can unexpectedly turn on even after the safety key is removed, which creates a risk of laceration injuries. The recalled Black & Decker models are CMM1000 and CMM1000R (available with orange or green decks), and the Craftsman model is 900.370520 (with a dark green deck). All date codes and types of these models are included in the recall, and consumers can identify their mower's model and date code on a silver and black label on the rear door.
If you own one of these recalled mowers, you should stop using it immediately and contact Black & Decker or Sears for a free inspection and repair or to receive a credit toward a new cordless lawnmower. Consumers who previously had their mowers repaired under earlier recalls should also contact Black & Decker or Sears to have their mowers inspected and repaired.
