Moving Parts

This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone else. However, if you are standing in the operator’s position, and follow all the rules in this book, the unit is safe to operate.

The auger and impeller have spinning parts that can amputate hands and feet. Do not allow anyone near the equipment while it is running! DO NOT clear the discharge chute by hand. If the chute becomes plugged, stop the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and clear the blockage with a clean-out tool or piece of wood.

Safety

Thrown Objects

This unit has a spinning auger and impeller. They pick up and throw snow and ice. Thrown debris could seriously injure a bystander. ALWAYS direct the discharge chute away from bystanders and property that could be damaged by frying debris. Be sure to clean up the area to be cleared BEFORE you start.

Do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running! If someone does enter the area, shut the unit off immediately until they leave.

Fuel and Maintenance

Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely flammable and can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only be used as a fuel, not as a solvent or cleaner. It should never be stored any place where its vapors can build up or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel belongs in an approved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the snowthrower fuel tank with the cap securely closed. Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.

Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit. Be sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual, especially periodically testing the safety system.
