Traction Control / Auger Control Lock

Chute Tilt Control

The distance snow is thrown can be changed by adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. Move the chute tilt control forward to decrease the distance, toward the rear to increase. See Figure 7.

The traction control is located on the right handle. Squeeze the traction control to engage the wheel drive. Release to stop. See Figure 7.

This same lever also locks the auger control so you can turn the chute directional control without interrupting the snow throwing process. If the auger control is engaged along with the traction control, the operator can release the auger control (on the left handle) and the augers will remain engaged. Release the traction control to stop both the augers and track drive (auger control must also be released).

IMPORTANT:Always release tractional control before changing speeds.

Auger Drive Control

The auger drive control is located on the left handle. Squeeze the control grip to engage the augers. Release to stop the snow throwing action. (Traction control must also be released.) See Figure 7.

Skid Shoe

The position of the skid shoe is determined by the condition of the ground from where snow has to be removed. See Figure 7.

Shift Lever

The shift lever is located in the center of the handle panel and is used to determine both ground speed and direction of travel. It can be moved into any of eight positions. See Figure 7.

Forward

Your snow thrower has six forward (F) speeds. Position number one (1) is the slowest. Position number six (6) is the fastest.

Reverse

Your snow thrower has two reverse (R) speeds. R1 is the slower, while R2 is the faster of the two.

IMPORTANT: Always release tractional control before changing speeds.
