IF RECOIL STARTER HAS FROZEN

If the recoil starter has frozen and will not turn the engine, proceed as follows:

1.Grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly pull as much rope out of the starter as possible.

2.Release the recoil starter handle and let it snap back against the starter.

If the engine still fails to start, repeat the above steps or use the electric starter.

SNOW THROWING TIPS

•Always operate the snow thrower with the engine at full throttle. Full throttle offers the best performance.

•Go slower in deep, freezing or heavy wet snow. Use the drive speed control, NOT the throttle, to adjust speed.

•It is easier and more efficient to remove snow imme- diately after it falls.

•The best time to remove snow is the early morning. At this time the snow is usually dry and has not been ex- posed to the direct sun and warming temperatures.

•Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all snow will be removed.

•Throw snow downwind whenever possible.

•Adjust the skid plates to proper height for current snow conditions. See “TO ADJUST SKID PLATES” in this section of this manual.

•For extremely heavy snow, reduce the width of snow re- moval by overlapping previous path and moving slowly.

•Keep engine clean and clear of snow during use. This will help air flow and extend engine life.

•After snow-throwing is completed, allow engine to run for a few minutes to melt snow and ice off the engine.

•Clean the entire snow thrower thoroughly after each use and wipe dry so it is ready for next use.

WARNING: Do not operate snow thrower if weather conditionsimpair vis- ibility. Throwing snow during a heavy, windy snowstorm can blind you and be hazardous to the safe operation of the snow thrower.
