OPERATION

Run the engine at full throttle when throwing snow. Use a lower wheel speed in heavy wet snow.

Spray the auger, inside of auger housing, inside of discharge chute, and inside of deflector chute with silicone spray to prevent snow from sticking to these areas.

Before the first snowfall, inspect the area in which you'llbe using the snowthrower. Remove any door- mats, sleds, boards, wires, and other foreign objects.

If snow should stick in the deflector chute or auger, DO NOT use your hands or feet to dislodge it. Shut the engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire, and prevent it from touching the spark plug. Then use a long stick (at least 3-feet long) to unclog thses areas.

For best results, remove snow as soon as possible after it falls.

Always slightly overlap each pass to make sure that all snow is removed.

If possible, always try to throw snow downwind. If you try to throw snow upwind, it could be blown back on you, on the snowthrower, and on the area you're clearing.

If you'rethrowing snow from a smooth area, adjust the skid shoes so that the scraper blade is above the ground by approximately 1/8-inch.

If you'rethrowing snow from a gravel covered area, adjust the skid shoes so that the scraper blade clears the gravel.
