DR® Whisperlite® lawnmower
Published November 4, 2025 · Recall initiated: April 10, 2002
What's the hazard
A wiring problem on the lawnmower's circuit board may cause some of the safety functions to become inoperable. The mower may continue to operate, after the Operator Presence Control Bar is released. The blade also may continue to spin for an extended period of time, after the mower has been shut off. Contact with a moving lawnmower blade can result in lacerations or serious injury to the hand or foot.

Consumers with a recalled lawn mower should immediately stop using the lawnmower. Country Home Products is sending all registered users of a Whisperlite® mower a repair kit. If you have not received a repair kit by May 1, 2002, please contact Country Home Products to request a free repair kit.
