Grass Bag Attachments for MTD electric walk-behind lawn mowers

## Hazards

The lawn mowers have a rear-mounted grass bag that does not seal properly to the rear door of the mower, allowing grass and other debris to be thrown out at the top of the bag. This could result in injury to the operator or bystanders.

## Manufacturer(s)

MTD Products Inc., of Cleveland, Ohio

## Retailer(s)

Home improvement and mass retailers nationwide, including Lowe's, sold the recalled lawn mowers, from January 2002 through July 2002, for under $200.

## Description

The recalled grass bags are attachments for MTD electric walk-behind lawn mowers with model numbers 18A-407-000 (red body) and 18A-407-062 (green body). The model numbers can be found on a model plate label on the rear discharge door of the mower. "Yard Machines" is printed on top of the motor shroud.
