Starting the Engine
1.
Push key (1) in.
2.
Move choke lever (2) to left position.
3.
Firmly push in the primer (3) 2 times with your thumb,
holding the primer in a for a second before releasing
it each time.
NOTE: Remove your glove when you push in the primer
so that air cannot escape from the primer hole.
IMPORTANT: It may not be necessary to use the primer
or the choke if the engine has been running and is hot.
Excessive priming may flood the engine and prevent it
from starting.
4.
Pull the recoil starter (4) or if your snow thrower is
equipped with an electric starter, connect an extension
cord to the snow thrower and plug the other end into
a three-hole grounded 220 volt A.C. receptacle and
push the electric-start button (5).
NOTE: Use an extension cord recommended for outdoor
use that is not longer than 50 feet (15 m).
The electrical cord can become damaged, causing
a shock or fire.
Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before plug-
ging it into a power source. If the cord is damaged,
do not use it to start the snowthrower. Replace or
repair the damaged cord immediately. Contact an
Authorized Service Dealer for assistance.
IMPORTANT: Run the electric starter no more than 10
times at intervals of 5 seconds on, then 5 seconds off.
Running the electric starter extensively can overheat and
damage it. If the engine does not start after this series of
attempts, wait at least 40 minutes to allow the starter to
cool before attempting to start it again. If the engine does
not start after the second series of attempts, take the
snowthrower to an Authorized Service Dealer for service.
NOTE: If you pull the recoil handle and feel no resistance,
the starter may be frozen. Thaw out the starter before
attempting to start the snowthrower.
5.
While the engine is running, move the choke lever (2)
slowly to the right position.
6.
Unplug the extension cord from the power source and
the snowthrower.
Unplug the power cord whenever you are not
starting the snowthrower.

To stop the engine, pull key (1) out.
