OPERATION

The operation of any snow blower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes,which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before beginning snow blower Operation. We recommend standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask for over spectacles.

The most effective use of the snow blower will be established by experience, taking into consideration the terrain, wind conditions and building location which will determine the direction of the discharge chute.

NOTE: Do not blow snow towards a building as hidden objects could be blown with sufficient force to cause damage.

1.Start the engine as described in section "To Start Engine" (see Figure 16).

2.Adjust snow chute deflector. Push the remote chute le- ver forward to discharge snow high and far, pull remote chute deflector back to discharge snow down. (see Figure 15).

3.Using crank, position the discharge chute to discharge snow with the wind.

4.Select proper speed for snow conditions as outlined be- low and set speed select lever to desired position.

NOTE: Always release traction drive clutch lever before moving speed select lever.

Ground speed is determined by snow conditions. Select the speed you desire by moving the speed selector into the appropriate colored area on the control panel.
