The engine can be started with the rewind (rope) starter or optional 12OV electric starter. The engine can be stopped by moving the throttle lever (D,figure 2) all the way down, or by pulling out on the ignition key.
Refer to the engine Owner’s Manual for maintenance and service instructions, along with important safety information.

GROUND SPEED
Use the ground speed shift lever (E, figure 2) to control the drive speed of the snowthrower. There are three for- ward speeds and one reverse speed. Position 1 is for extra deep, wet, heavy snow. Positon 2 is for deep, wet, heavy snow. Position 3 is for light, fluffy snow and to drive the snowthrower without blowing snow. To change speeds, first release the drive control clutch lever (B, fig- ure I), then move the ground speed shift lever to the desired speed setting.
