The warranty on this snow thrower does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, operator must maintain snow thrower as instructed in this manual. Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your snow thrower.

At least once a season, check to see if you should make any of the adjustments described in the Service and Ad- justments section of this manual.

At least once a year, you should replace the spark plug and check belts for wear. A new spark plug will help your engine run better and last longer.

TIRES

Maintain proper air pressure in both tires (14–17 P.S.I. / 19-24.5 N-m).
