Overview
This HTS category specifically covers electric lawn mowers with a cutting device that rotates horizontally, where the electric motor's power output is less than 5.2 kilowatts (kW). These machines are designed for maintaining lawns, parks, and sports grounds, functioning as self-propelled or push mowers driven by an electric motor. The classification hinges on both the mower's operational mechanism (horizontal rotating cutter) and its power source (electric motor) as well as the precise power output rating of that motor.
The distinction of this category from its siblings lies solely in the power output of the electric motor. Categories 8433.11.00.30 and 8433.11.00.40 cover electric mowers with higher power ratings, specifically 5.2 kW and over but under 7.46 kW, and 7.46 kW and over, respectively. Therefore, the crucial determinant for classification under 8433.11.00.20 is the motor's power being strictly below the 5.2 kW threshold.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this node is determined by the electrical power of the motor. Ensure that the documentation clearly states the kilowatt rating of the electric motor to confirm correct classification.
