Cleaning tips for your DeWalt electric walk-behind lawn mower

• Shut off the mower and let the blade come to a complete stop. Remove the safety key and pull out the batteries or unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

• Open the battery compartment and clean debris and grass clippings out of the battery compartment on cordless models.
• Clean grass clippings and debris off of wheels and axles.
• Wipe down the mower with a damp cloth. Use only mild soap and water to clean stubborn stains or deposits off the mower body. Allow the mower to dry completely before using it again.

How to sharpen the blade on your DeWalt electric walk-behind lawn mower

• Shut off the lawn mower and make sure the blade has stopped rotating. Remove the safety key and battery pack then remove the blade.
• Tightly secure the cutting blade in a vise.
• Wear work gloves to protect your hands and safety goggles to protect your eyes.
• Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth file or sharpening stone. Sharpen the blade at the original cutting angle.
• Sharpen the cutting edges on both ends of the blade. File off equal amounts of the cutting blade edges from both ends so the blade remains balanced.
