Operating Tips

Engage the auger control and traction drive control levers following instructions above.

The interlock feature will allow you to remove your left hand from the auger control lever.

When clearing the first pass through the snow, control the traction speed of the snow thrower according to the depth and condition of snow.

To turn the unit left, squeeze left trigger; to turn right, squeeze right trigger.

On each succeeding pass, readjust the chute deflector to the desired position and slightly overlap the previously cleared path.

After the area is cleared, stop the snow thrower following instructions given below.

Operating Tips

NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes as the engine will not develop full power until it reaches operating temperature.

Warning: The temperature of muffler and

surrounding areas may exceed 150o F. Avoid these areas.

For most efficient snow removal, remove snow immediately after it falls.

Discharge snow downwind whenever possible. Slightly overlap each previous swath.

Set the skid shoes 1/4" below the scraper bar for normal usage. The skid shoes may be adjusted upward for hard-packed snow.

NOTE: It is not recommended that you operate this snow thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily picked up and thrown by the auger causing an injury or damage to the snow thrower.

If for some reason, you have to operate the snow thrower on gravel, keep the skid shoe in the highest position for maximum clearance between the ground and the shave plate.

Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.

Before Stopping

Run engine for a few minutes to help dry off any moisture on engine.

To avoid possible freeze-up of the starter, follow

these steps:

Recoil Starter

a.With the engine running, pull the starter rope with a rapid, continuous full arm stroke three

or four times.

Electric Starter

a.Connect power cord to switch box, then to 120 Volt AC receptacle.

b.While the engine is running, push the starter button and spin the starter for several seconds.

c.Disconnect power cord from the receptacle first, then from the snow thrower.

NOTE: The unusual sound from pulling the starter rope in the case of the recoil starter, or from spinning the starter in the case of the electric starter, will not harm the engine.

To Stop The Snow Thrower

To stop the wheel, release the traction drive lever on the snow thrower.

To stop throwing snow, release auger drive lever.

To stop the engine, push throttle control lever to OFF and pull out the ignition key. Do not turn key.
