The drive control is located on the right handle. Squeeze the control grip against the handle to engage the wheel drive. Release to stop.

The drive control also locks the auger control so you can operate the chute directional control without interrupting the snow throwing process. If the auger control is en- gaged simultaneously with the drive control, the operator can release the auger control (on the left handle) and the augers will remain engaged. Release both controls to stop the augers and wheel drive.

IMPORTANT: Always release the drive control before changing speeds.

Ignition Key

The ignition key must be inserted and snapped in place in order for the engine to start. Remove the ignition key to prevent unauthorized use of equipment. Do NOT attempt to turn the key.

Clean-Out Tool

WARNING: Never use your hands to clear a clogged chute assembly. Shut off engine and remain behind handles until all moving parts have stopped before unclogging.

The clean-out tool is mounted to the rear of the auger housing and is designed to clear a clogged chute. Refer to page 9 for instructions on how to properly use it.

NOTE: This item is fastened with a cable tie to the rear of the auger housing at the factory. Cut the cable tie before operating the snow thrower.

Skid Shoes

Position the skid shoes based on surface conditions. Adjust upward for hard-packed snow. Adjust downward when operating on gravel or crushed rock surfaces.

Augers

When engaged, the augers rotate and draw snow into the auger housing.

Drift Cutters (If Equipped)

Drift cutters should be used when operating the snow thrower in heavy drift conditions.

Electric Starter Button

Pressing the electric starter button engages the engine’s electric starter when plugged into a 120V power source.

Electric Starter Outlet

Requires the use of a three-prong outdoor extension cord and a 120V power source/wall outlet.

WARNING

The operation of any snow thrower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can damage your eyes severely. Always wear safety glasses while operating the snow thrower, or while performing any adjust- ments or repairs on it.

Be sure no one other than the operator is standing near the snow thrower while starting engine or operating snow thrower. Never run engine indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas.
