Chute Direction Control

Models with Manual Chute Rotator: Turning the crank rotates the discharge chute to desired position.

Remote/Regular Deflector Control

Regular (Knob) Chute Deflector: Locks chute deflector in desired position. Tilting the chute deflector UP provides a higher stream and greater distance, while tilting the deflector DOWN provides a lower stream and less dis- tance.

Remote Chute Deflector: Twist the knob to unlock the chute deflector. Pull or push the knob to change the deflector angle. UP provides a higher stream and greater distance, while tilting the deflector DOWN pro- vides a lower stream and less distance.

Easy Turn™ Control

Easy Turn Control: Engaging the Easy Turn™ lever releases the right wheel to allow easy turning in tight areas. Releasing the control automatically engages both drive wheels for full traction.

Traction Lock Pins: The right traction wheel can be completely released using the locking pin (see Figure 7). This allows the unit to be easily moved with the engine off.

Starter

Electric Start (If Equipped): Depressing the starter but- ton activates the electric starter. The electric start button operates on 120 Volts AC, which is provided by connec- tion to the extension cord provided with units equipped with this feature. Connect this extension cord ONLY to a properly grounded 3 prong electrical outlet.

Recoil Starter (All Models): Pulling the recoil handle cranks the engine.

Fuel

Fuel tank filler cap (see illustration). Note: The fuel shut off valve is located under the fuel tank or on the front of the engine. Close the valve when the snowthrower is not in use. Open the valve before starting.

Primer Button

When pressed, the primer button provides initial fuel to help start a cold engine. Normally, pressing the primer button twice will provide enough fuel to start a cold engine.

Throttle Lever

Controls engine speed. Move toward the hare icon for faster engine speed, move toward the turtle icon for slower engine speed. Move the throttle all the way to STOP to stop the engine. Set throttle to FULL/FAST (hare icon) for operation.

Engine Key

The engine key prevents the engine from being started. The key must be fully inserted into the key slot for the unit to start. The key can also used to stop the engine by pulling the key out of the key slot.

Choke Knob

The choke knob adjusts the air/fuel mixture, and is used to help start a cold engine by providing a richer mixture. Once the engine is warm and running smoothly, the choke knob should be set to the off position to provide a normal air/fuel mix.

Grip Warmers (Select Models)

The optional grip warmers are powered when the engine is running and have three settings: low, off, and high.

Headlight (Select Models, Not Pictured)

For use in low sunlight - early morning and evening. The headlight is on at all times when the engine is running.
