5. Operating the machine

Check the oil level. Check that all bolts and nuts are securely fastened.
Adjust the skids, to ensure that dirt, rocks and other objects are not collected by the machine.
Adjust the chute discharger in the desired ejecting angle using the adjusting lever
Start the engine as described under point 4.
Choose the gear you want to drive. Activate the clutch. Start in a slow gear, increase gradually.
The same applies to the reverse gear.
Always use a gear that is suitable for the amount of snow. Choose a lower gear for heavy snow, a
higher gear for less snow.
Activate the auger using the left handle. The auger will be activated as long as you hold handlebar
down.
Stopping the machine
You can stop the machine by releasing the auger handle to the left and the drive handle to the
right.
Let the machine idle a few minutes after throwing snow this will prevent freeze up of au-
ger/impeller.
To avoid the engine freezing and problems starting the engine, you must leave the engine running
for 5 minutes, when your work has been completed. In this way all moisture will disappear that
would otherwise cause starting problems.
Turn off the machine by turning engine switch to OFF

6. Tips regarding the clearing of snow

Use the machine as soon as it has stopped snowing. If you wait, the bottom layer of the snow will
become ice. This will make the work more difficult.
If possible you should use the machine with the wind in your back.
Clear the snow so the tracks overlap each other.
The adjustment of the chute flap has an effect on the distance of the throw out.
The steeper the angle of the chute flap, the longer the distance of the throw out.
