Q. Don't buy green works cordless battery powered lawn mower. The one year warranty on the battery doesn't mean anything. When you call them at 1-888-909-6757 and give them the model # 25222, and ask for the battery, then will tell you that they are on back order. Even www.amazon.com sells the lawn mower but not the battery. I bought my lawn mower from pep boys and even they don't sell the battery. Still, if you don't want listen to my advise, then do this: call them at the above phone # and give them the model # and tell them that you already have the lawn mower but the battery went dead after three and a half months, and hear what they will have to say. I bought my green works cordless battery powered lawn mower from pep boys in March 2012 and the battery went dead in June 2012. I called the green works customer service because pep boys store said that they can't do anything about it. And they told me to take my battery and the charger to their assigned place and they kept the lawn mower for 3-4 days. Then I called them and they told me that the battery is bad and they don't have a new one and green works company is back order on the batteries. I called green works and they told me that I will get the battery in August. I called them in August and they said that they are still on back order and I should get the battery in September. Now the September went by and I still don't have the battery. So please don't why greenworks lawn mower, unless you want to waste your money. Some other people have similar experience with them if you read the reviews on amazon.com and type in green works or greenworks. Will anyone listen to my advice?
I am not trying to reach the battery powered lawn mower owners. But I am trying to reach the new customers who hasn't bought it yet but thinking about it.

So, you really think you're reaching out to cordless battery lawnmower owners via yahoo answers??? lol? Personally (and no offense, but) I don't know ANYONE who would buy a battery operated lawn mower.
Or a mower with a CORD on it for that matter!!!!

Push mower will not start!!?
Q. Okay, I bought a BRAND NEW in spring of 2012, right out of the box, push button start, push mower!
I used it plenty of times and have NOT had ANY problems with it.
Two weeks ago, on a wednesday, I put gas in it, filled it up, on my merry routine, and it would not start for the life of me!
So, the next day, I tried starting it AGAIN.. And again, it would NOT START!
I tried both the starter button and pulling it..
The NEXT DAY I try it again...and YET AGAIN it WILL NOT START!!!
..okay, I left it for the weekend hoping that maybe the gas would make its way to the engine..
On TUESDAY of the next week, I tried starting it and still NOTHING!!!
Now, I'm pissed! I let it sit in the garage for, now, another whole freaking week letting the gas settle and evaporate whatever the hell it's gotta do!
Today, I go outside, and try again!!!!
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!
I took off the filter, cleaned it, try making the engine suck the gas in, I had it ALMOST start but it didn't turn over, I pulled the string to start it, it went VROOM dun-dun-dun---d-d-d-dundun-d-d-dun and it died!
Take note, last time I used it and it ran, I left no gas in it, the tank is so damn small I can hardly do my whole lawn and I have almost an acre. But this always happens..
So, I don't have a primer button, I put new oil in it, new gas, cleaned the filter, charged the batter...
Still won't start..
...I'm so glad I'm a patient man or I swear to god,
I would @#$%^$# DRAG this mower to the dump!
Anyway, what do you think?
Thanks for any advice!
Much appreciated!

Answer
First of all, avoid the temptation to throw it out and calm down although I know it's frustrating.. Is the mower under warranty? I'd have the dealer repair it if so.
If not...I would pull the spark plug and see if it's getting spark....remove the plug, reattach the plug wire to the plug tip, hold the plug threaded base or electrode to the metal of the engine using an insulated pliers and crank over the engine. If the plug has a bright bluish spark at the electrode, then the ignition is working OK. If no spark, you have ignition problems which a shop would have to look at. I doubt the spark plug would be too worn or need to be regapped but you may want to install a new plug.
The next step is to try starting the engine with a little carb cleaner sprayed into the carb throat (remove air filter if there is one)...or pour a teaspoon of gas into the plug hole and reinstall the plug....then try starting. If the engine starts and dies...repeat putting a little gas in the plug hole and restart until it stays running. May take a few tries. Or keep spraying a little carb cleaner spray into the carb throat and restart until the engine runs by itself. Replace air filter after you get the engine running. Sometimes the small passages in the carb can get gummed up from old gas which needs to be purged out and flushed by running the engine with fresh gas. Best to use products like Stabil or Seafoam in every tank of gas to keep any gas in the carb from gumming up over time....especially when storing in the off season. Parts stores carry carb cleaner spray and Stabil or Seafoam products.
Is there a kill switch for the engine which shuts down the engine if a handle is released? If there is , that could be a problem if the cable from the handle to the switch is out of adjustment or the switch itself. It sounds more like you have spark or carb problems...most likely from stale gas in the carb.
