Operation

1. Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.

Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

2. Exercise extreme caution when operating on or cross-

ing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert for hidden

hazards or traffic.

3. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor),

disconnect the cord on electric motors, thoroughly

inspect the snow thrower for any damage, and repair

the damage before restarting and operating the snow

thrower. Remove key.

4. If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the

engine (motor) and check immediately for the cause.

Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

5. Stop the engine (motor) whenever you leave the

operating position, before unclogging the auger hous-

ing or discharge chute, and when making any repairs,

adjustments or inspections.

6. When cleaning, repairing or inspecting the snow thrower,

stop the engine and make certain the auger blades and

all moving parts have stopped. Remove key.

7. Do not run the engine indoors, except when starting

the engine and for transporting the snow thrower in or

out of the building. Open the outside doors; exhaust

fumes are dangerous.

8. Exercise extreme caution when operating on slopes.

9. Never operate the snow thrower without proper guards,

and other safety protective devices in place and working.

10. Never direct the discharge toward people or areas

where property damage can occur. Keep children and

others away.

11. Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting

to clear snow at too fast a rate.

12. Never operate the machine at high transport speeds

on slippery surfaces. Look behind and use care when

operating in reverse.

13. Disengage power to the auger blades when snow

thrower is transported or not in use.

14. Use only attachments and accessories approved by

the manufacturer of the snow thrower.

15. Never operate the snow thrower without good visibility

or light. Always be sure of your footing, and keep a firm

hold on the handles. Walk; never run.

16. Never touch a hot engine or muffler.

Clearing a Clogged Discharge Chute

Hand contact with the rotating auger blades

inside the discharge chute is the most common

cause of injury associated with snow throwers.

Never use your hand to clean out the discharge

chute.

To clear the chute:

1. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF!

2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the auger blades have

stopped rotating.

3. Always use a clearing tool at least 15 inches long.

Maintenance and Storage

1. Check shear bolts and other bolts at frequent intervals

for proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe

working condition.

2. Never store the machine with fuel in the fuel tank inside

a building where ignition sources are present such as

hot water heaters, space heaters, or clothes dryers.

Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.

3. Always refer to operator's manual for important details

if the snow thrower is to be stored for an extended

period.

4. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as

necessary.

5. Run the machine a few minutes after throwing snow

to prevent freeze-up of the collector/impeller.
