Joseph of Mastic Beach, NY September 17, 2009 CPSC, Lawn-Boy Inc. Announce Recall of Power Mowers WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Lawn-Boy Inc., of Bloomington, Minn., is recalling about 102,000 Lawn-Boy power mowers. Due to wear caused by the mulch fan, the mowers' blades can crack and break off. Broken pieces of the blade can be propelled from underneath the mower, possibly injuring the operator or a bystander. Lawn-Boy has received eight reports of blades breaking on these mowers, including a consumer who was struck on the shin by a piece of a broken mower blade, resulting in a laceration. The recalled Lawn-Boy Silver Pro and Gold Pro Series are 2-cycle, walk-behind, 21-inch power mowers. A decal on the right rear of the mower's housing (Silver Pro) or beneath the handle control panel (Gold Pro) has a serial number from 8900001 to 8999999, and one of the following model numbers: 10247 10250 10323 10324 10331 10332 10424 10425 10525 10527 10547 10548 Hit with piece of blade. This happened to me on a 10324 with a later serial number,After speaking with a supervisor, Kevin at Lawnboy they would not send me the replacement kit. herk of pittsburgh, PA August 20, 2009 Rear wheel on a Model 10682 rear-wheel self-propelled mower has fallen off. Two separate dealers have attempted to repair the mower but it continues to happen and poses a major risk to the operator of the mower. I have repeatedly contacted Lawn Boy to talk with the district service rep about giving me a discount to trade in this mower for a new one. They keep trying to fix it without success.
