Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Recalled product: Black & Decker Recalls Cordless Electric Lawnmowers Due to Laceration Hazard

The hazard

The lawnmower's motor and blade can unexpectedly turn on after the mower's safety key is removed, posing a laceration hazard to consumers. Removing the safety key is designed to keep this from occurring.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the recalled lawnmowers immediately and call Black & Decker or Sears for a free inspection and repair, or a credit towards a new cordless lawnmower. Consumers who had their mowers repaired as a result of the previous recalls should also have their mowers inspected and repaired as part of this recall.
