5 what do you plan to do with your grass clippings? Craftsman lawn mowers offer three options for dealing with grass clippings - discharging, mulching or bagging. The conventional side discharge disperses the clippings. Mulching mode cuts each blade of grass multiple times and returns it ot the lawn where it helps supply nutrients to the lawn as it decomposes. The large, easyto-remove, easy-empty, rear bag lets you remove your clippings for a clean manicu look. Our 2009 lawn mower line offers different combinations of these functions so that you re sure to find a mower that s the best fit for your needs. Our manufacturers put each new lawn mower through field testing in extreme environmental conditions. This mandatory testing ensures all Craftsman lawn mowers meet our Sears Specification Guidelines (SSG) for durability and performance. Sears Product Quality Group works with the manufacturers to guarantee that our lawn mowers meet the rigorous standards for Craftsman products. When you buy a Craftsman lawn mower, you can be confident that you are getting a product that is among the best in its class, enginee to last.

11 With the new eco-friendly electric and battery powe lawn mowers, you can cut your grass with less noise, less mess and less money. corded mowers motor type battery type battery rating positions height adjustment range drive type electric corded electric corded 12 amp 1 single lever amp 20 single lever cordless mowers The key benefits of electric & battery mowers One of the most noticeable features of these lawn mowers is the noise level - they re quieter than gasoline-powe mowers, something your neighbors will no doubt appreciate. Convenience is another big advantage. You ll never have to worry about running out of gas in the middle of the yard, or deal with filling the tank. Only pennies per use They cost only pennies to use each time, compa to the several dollars you ll pay for gasoline. Because these mowers are less expensive to run does not mean they offer fewer features. Corded vs. Cordless If you decide to buy an electric lawn mower, you ll have to choose between a corded or a cordless. A corded mower will generally be less expensive, and they re great for small yards. You might think dragging the cord around would be awkward, but it s no harder than using a vacuum cleaner indoors. Cordless mowers are very convenient. Most newer s come with an on-board battery charger and indicator lights - all you have to do is plug it in. The charger will automatically shut down when the battery is fully charged. Keep in mind that a larger battery will be heavier - but it will still be lighter weight than a gasoline mower with a full tank. * Note: See specific information.
