SNOW-CLEARING TIPS
For best efficiency, clear snow before it melts, refreezes and hardens.
Operating tips for clearing hard or deep snow:
• Clear snow with a back and forth motion. Release the auger clutch
lever, then press down on the handlebar to raise the auger housing
when pulling the snowblower backwards.
• Clear a narrower swath. Make several passes with the auger
overlapping the cleared areas.
REMOVING OBSTRUCTIONS
If the discharge chute or snowthrowing mechanism becomes
restricted:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Make sure that all rotating parts have come to a complete stop.
3. Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug (page 25).
4. Use a wooden stick to clear the obstruction.
