Page 11

NOTE: If the engine is already warm, place choke control in the OFF position instead of FULL.

•Push the primer two or three times for cold engine start, making sure to cover vent hole in the center of the primer when pushing.

NOTE: DO NOT use primer to restart a warm engine after a short shutdown.

NOTE: Additional priming may be necessary if the temperature is below 15° F(9° C).

•Grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly pull the rope out. At the point where it becomes slightly harder to pull the rope, slowly allow the rope to recoil.

•Pull the starter handle with a firm, rapid stroke.

IMPORTANT: Do not release the handle and allow it to snap back. Keep a firm hold on the starter handle and allow it to slowly recoil.

•As the engine warms, slowly rotate the choke control to the OFF position. If the engine falters, quickly rotate the choke control back to the FULL position and then slowly into the OFF position again.

Stopping The Engine

•Run engine for a few minutes before stopping to help dry off any moisture on the engine.

•To help prevent possible starter freeze-up, proceed as follows:

Electric Starter (on models so equipped)

1.Connect extension cord to the electric starter outlet on the engine, then to 120 volt AC outlet.

2.With the engine running, push the starter button and allow the starter for spin for several seconds. The noise made by the starter is normal. The engine’s starter is not being harmed.

3.When disconnecting the extension cord, always unplug the end at the three-prong wall outlet before unplugging the opposite end from the snow thrower.

4.Move throttle control to STOP position.

5.Remove the ignition key.

6.Wipe all snow and moisture from the carburetor cover in the area of the drive control and auger control. Also, engage and release the controls several times.

NOTE: Keep the key in a safe place. The engine cannot start without the ignition key.

Recoil Starter

1.With engine running, pull starter rope with a rapid, continuous full arm stroke three or four times.

Pulling the starter rope will produce a loud clattering sound, which is not harmful to engine.

2.Move throttle control to STOP position.

3.Remove the ignition key.

NOTE: Keep the key in a safe place. The engine cannot start without the ignition key.

4.Wipe all snow and moisture from the carburetor cover in the area of the drive control and auger control. Also, engage and release the controls several times.

To Engage Drive

•With the throttle control in the Fast (rabbit) position, move shift lever into one of the six forward (F) positions or two reverse (R) positions. Select a speed appropriate for the snow conditions and a pace you’re comfortable with.

IMPORTANT: Use the slower speeds until you are comfortable and familiar with the operation of the snow thrower.

•Squeeze the auger control against the handle and the augers will turn. Release it and the

augers will stop.

•Squeeze the drive control against the handle the snow thrower will move. Release it and drive motion will stop.

IMPORTANT: NEVER reposition the shift lever (change speeds or direction of travel) without first releasing the drive control and bringing the snow thrower to a complete stop. Doing so will result in premature wear to the snow thrower’s drive system.

To Engage Augers

1.To engage augers and start snow throwing, squeeze the left hand auger clutch grip against the left handle. Release to stop augers.

For models with optional interlock mechanism only:

2.While the auger control is engaged, squeeze the drive control to move, release to stop. Do not shift speeds while the drive is engaged.

NOTE: This same lever also locks auger control so you can turn the chute crank without interrupting the snow throwing process.

3.Release the auger control; the interlock mechanism should keep the auger control engaged until the drive control is released.

4.Release the drive control to stop both the augers and the wheel drive. To stop the auger, both levers must be released.
