Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)

The tires are overinflated for shipping purposes.

Check tire pressure. Maintain pressure between 10 and 14 psi.

NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in all tires, the unit may pull to one side or the other.

WARNING: Maximum tire pressure under any circumstance is 30 psi. Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times. Excessive pressure (over 30 psi) when seating beads may cause tire/rim assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause serious injury.

SECTION 3: KNOWING YOUR SNOW THROWER

WARNING: Be familiar with all the controls on the snow thrower and their proper operation. Know how to stop the machine and disengage them quickly.

Drive Control / Auger Control Lock

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

This same lever also locks the auger control so you can operate the chute crank without interrupting the snow throwing process. If the auger control is engaged

simultaneously with the drive control, the operator can release the auger control (on the left handle) and the augers will remain engaged. Release the drive control to stop the augers and wheel drive (the auger control must also be released).

IMPORTANT: Always release the drive control before changing speeds.
