Setting Up

Your Snow

Thrower

NOTE: This Operator’s Manual covers several models. Snowthrower featrues vary by model. Not all features refer- enced in this manual are applicable to all snowthrower models.

NOTE: References to right or left side of the snow thrower are deter- mined from behind the unit in the operating position.

IMPORTANT: The snow thrower is shipped with oil and WITHOUT GASOLINE. After assembly, refer to separate engine manual for proper fuel and engine oil recom- mendations.

Loose Parts

• The augers are secured to the auger shaft with shear

pins and bow tie cotter pins. If you hit a foreign object or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the pins may shear. Replacement shear pins and cotter pins are provided for your convenience. Store these

safely until needed.

Items Required For Assembly

Pair of pliers

7/16” Wrenches or adjustables

Fresh gasoline

Assembling Handle

• Look at the lower rear of the snow thrower frame to be sure the spring (found at the end of each cable) is attached to its actuator bracket.

• Remove the lower handle knobs, washers and

carriage bolts from each side of the upper handle. See Figure 3-2.

• Raise the upper handle assembly until it locks over

 

the lower handle. See Figure 3-1.

 

• Secure the upper handle and lower handle with the
