Abstract: A walk-behind mower has a mower deck, a plurality of wheels, a head, and a plurality of light sources. The wheels are rotatably coupled to the mower deck. The wheels move the walk-behind mower over a support surface in a forward direction and a rearward direction. The head is coupled to the mower deck. The head can store at least one battery pack. The light sources are coupled to at least one of the mower deck and the head. The light sources project light through a continuous illumination angle about the walk-behind mower. The illumination angle extends along an arc from the forward direction toward the rearward direction and is at least 90 degrees.

Abstract: Selectable current limiting for a power tool. One embodiment provides a method for selectable current limiting for a power tool including determining, using a current sensor, an average current and determining whether the average current exceeds a predetermined current threshold. The method also includes determining a deviation of the average current from the predetermined current threshold and reducing a PWM duty ratio proportional to the deviation of the average current from the predetermined current threshold. The PWM duty ratio corresponds to a PWM signal provided to an inverter bridge.

Abstract: A walk-behind lawnmower includes a housing including a metal chassis, a handle coupled to the housing by support beams, a battery pack interface configured to receive a battery pack, a motor housed within the housing, a plurality of wheels attached to the housing, one or more cutting blades configured to be driven by the motor, and a skirt coupled to the metal chassis of the housing. The skirt is configured to provide a conductive path to discharge an electrostatic charge accumulated on the metal chassis.

Abstract: A walk-behind lawnmower includes a mower deck, a plurality of wheels coupled to the mower deck, a drive motor configured to operate at a drive speed to drive at least one of the plurality of wheels, and a handle coupled to the mower deck. The handle includes a user interface having a variable speed control configured to be actuated an actuation percentage, and a maximum speed control including a setting corresponding to a maximum mower speed. The drive speed of the drive motor is determined using the actuation percentage of the variable speed control scaled by the setting of the maximum speed control.
