Characteristics of POWER mode:
• Travel speed is automatically adjusted according to the workload so engine
power can be maintained at or near the maximum level.
• Engine speed is automatically adjusted according to operating conditions so
the snow discharge distance remains constant that have been set with the
throttle control lever.
• The auger is automatically raised when the snow thrower is reversing. In case
the auger clutch switch is in the ON position, the auger is automatically
returned to the original position when the snow thrower begins moving
forward again.
Characteristics of SELF mode:
• No automatic adjustment is made. Manually adjust the engine speed and
travel speed according to the workload.
CAUTION:
Do not turn the mode selector switch to another position while the snow
thrower is moving. The electronic control unit will interpret this as a failure;
the snow thrower will stop moving and the auger will stop turning.
When the snow thrower and auger stop moving/turning, move the main
shift lever to the N (neutral) position, release the drive clutch lever.
Check each part to verify it is in its proper position before resuming
operation.
