B&D 18" Corded Electric lawn mower trips plug fuse
I have a B&D Electric lawn mower. Its worked great for the last
year. Now when I use it it trips the circut breaker to the outlet that Im plugged into. Its the same outlet I've used in the past. Any suggestions on what could be wrong? |

Perhaps the blade is very dull and the motor is working harder.
Or you have an additional load on that circuit that was not there last season. |

If so you may have been at the threashold and now you're over the limit? Djay |

Im am using ground protected outlet. It's worked 30 times prior to
this. I have changed cords 2 times. The cord that I'm using now, I have used 3 or 4 times so far, before this problem arose. It is still under warranty, so I will probably end up taking it to the shop. |
