Changing Speeds

You can engage the Wheel Drive Lever when the shift handle is in any of the speeds - (R) Reverse,

(1)First, (2) Second, or (3) Third. You do not have to begin in (1) First and then shift up through (2) Second and then into (3) Third. You can begin in (3) Third if you wish.

In (2) Second or (3) Third, the snowthrower will move forward faster than in (1) First.

OPERATION

Before moving the shift handle to another speed, release the handlebar levers and let the forward (or rearward) motion of the snowthrower stop. Then move the shift handle to the desired speed and re- engage the Wheel Drive Lever.

Snow Throwing Tips

Use the pattern shown in Figure 4-3 when snow cannot be thrown to one side of the area being cleared. Begin throwing snow close to this side, mak- ing sure that the discharge chute directs the snow away from this side. When you turn the snowthrower

around at the end of each pass, you'llhave to gradu- ally crank the discharge chute so that it always throws the snow away from the area where no snow can be thrown.

As you turn, rotate the discharge chute so that snow is always thrown in this direction.

Snow is not thrown to this side.
