Lubrication

Lubricate pivot points on the control handle and the extension spring at the end of the clutch cable with a light oil once every season and before storage of the snow thrower at the end of the season.

Engine

Refer to the separate engine operator’s manual packed with your snow thrower for all engine maintenance procedures.

Check engine and snow thrower frequently for loose hardware, and tighten as needed.

SECTION 7: OFF-SEASON STORAGE

WARNING: Never store engine with fuel in tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, or other gas appliance.

Clean snow thrower thoroughly.

Lubricate as instructed above with a light oil.

Follow “Storage” instructions in the Engine Manual.

Store in a clean, dry area. Block the snow thrower up so it is not resting on the rubber auger blades.

NOTE: When storing any type of power equipment in an poorly ventilated or metal storage shed, care should be taken to rustproof the equipment, especially springs, cables and all moving parts.
