Tips for Operation
Snow is best removed as soon as possible after snow fall.
To clear an area, run unit in an overlapping series of paths. For large areas, start in the middle and throw snow to each side, so snow is not cleared more than once.
ALWAYS direct snow away from area to be cleared and with direction of the wind.
