To Engage Drive

1.With the engine running near top speed, move shift lever to one of six FORWARD positions or two REVERSE positions. Select a speed appropriate for the snow conditions that exist. Do not shift speeds while the drive is engaged.

2.Squeeze drive control against the right handle and the snow thrower will move. Release it and the drive motion will stop.

To Engage Augers

1.To engage augers and start snow throwing, squeeze the left hand auger control against the left handle. Release to stop augers.

2.While the auger control is engaged, squeeze the drive control to move, release to stop. Do not shift speeds while the drive is engaged.

NOTE: This drive lever also locks auger control so you can turn the chute control without interrupting the snow throwing process.

3.Release the auger control; the interlock mechanism should keep the auger control engaged until the drive control is released.

4.Release the drive control to stop both the augers and the wheel drive. To stop the auger, both levers must be released.

Auger Control Test

Perform the following test before operating your snow thrower for the first time and at the start of each winter. Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:

1.When the auger control is released and in the disengaged “up” position, the cable should have very little slack. It should NOT be tight.

2.In a well-ventilated area, start the snow thrower engine as instructed on the previous page. Make sure the throttle is set in the FAST position.

3.While standing in the operator’s position (behind the snow thrower), engage the auger.

4.Allow the auger to remain engaged for approximately ten (10) seconds before releasing the auger control. Repeat this several times.

5.With the auger control in the disengaged “up” posi- tion, walk to the front of the machine.

Figure 4-2

6.Confirm that the auger has completely stopped rotating and shows NO signs of motion. If the auger shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to the operator’s position and shut off the engine. Wait for ALL moving parts to stop before re-adjusting the auger control.

7.To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex nut on the auger cable bracket. See Figure 4-2.

8.Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or downward to increase cable tension).

9.Retighten the upper hex nut.

10.Repeat Auger Control Test to verify proper adjustment has been achieved.

WARNING

The muffler, engine and surrounding areas become hot and can cause a burn 150°F (65°C). Do not touch.

When selecting a Drive Speed, use the slower speeds until you are comfortable and familiar with the operation of the snow thrower.

NEVER reposition the shift lever (change speeds or direction of travel) without first releasing the drive control and bringing the snow thrower

to a complete stop. Doing so will result in premature wear to the snow thrower’s drive system.
