Assembly
(Item 4)

Model 938033

Move remote discharge chute handle forward 
or backward to control direction of snow 
discharge.

GASOLINE

IMPORTANT: 

Always use gasoline that 

meets the following guidelines:

Clean, fresh gasoline.

A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 

RON). High altitude use may require a 

different octane. Consult your Engine 

Manual.

Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol 

(gasohol) or up to 10% MTBE (methyl 

tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

Use of any gasoline other than those 

approved above may void the engine 

warranty. If gas pumps are not marked 

for the content of alcohol or ethers, 

check ethanol and MTBE levels with 

the fuel supplier.

Do not modify the fuel system to use 

different fuels.

Never mix oil and gasoline.

NOTICE: 

All gasoline is not the same. If the 

engine experiences starting or performance 

problems after using a new gasoline, switch 

to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.

IMPORTANT: 

Excessively oxygenated or 

reformulated fuels (fuels blended with 
alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel 
system or cause performance problems. If 
any undesirable operating problems occur, 
use a gasoline with a lower percentage of 
alcohol or ether.

Fuel Tank

To add fuel:

1. Turn engine off and let cool for at least 

three minutes.

2. Open fuel and oil door (Item 22) and 

clean fuel cap and surrounding area to 
prevent moisture and debris from 
entering fuel tank.

3. Remove fuel cap.

IMPORTANT: 

Refer to Engine Manual for 

correct type and grade of fuel.

4. Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. See 

SPECIFICATIONS 

on page 20 for fuel 

tank capacity.

IMPORTANT: 

Do not overfill! This equipment 

and/or its engine may include evaporative 
emissions control system components, 
required to meet EPA and/or CARB 

regulations, that will only function properly 
when the fuel tank has been filled to the 
recommended level. Overfilling may cause 
permanent damage to evaporative emissions 
control system components. Filling to the 
recommended level ensures a vapor gap 
required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay 
close attention while filling the fuel tank to 
ensure that the recommended fuel level 
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a 
portable gasoline container with an 
appropriately sized dispensing spout when 
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other 
device that obstructs the view of the tank 
filling process.

5. Replace fuel cap and tighten.
6. Clean up any spilled fuel and close fuel 

and oil door.

Fuel Stabilizer

Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended 
periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate, 
resulting in gum deposits in the system. 
These deposits can damage the carburetor 
and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent 
deposits from forming in the fuel system 
during storage by adding a quality fuel 
stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the 
recommended mix ratio found on the fuel 
stabilizer container.

ENGINE OIL

Models 938031, 032, 033

To check oil level:

1. Turn engine off and let cool for at least 

three minutes.

2. Open fuel and oil door (Item 22) and 

remove cap from oil fill.

3. Check oil level on dipstick. Oil level must 

be maintained at safe operating level. 
See 

SPECIFICATIONS 

on page 20. See 

Engine Manual for detailed information.

4. Replace cap and close door.

To add oil:

 1. Turn engine off and let cool for at least 

three minutes.

2. Open fuel and oil door (Item 22) and 

remove cap from oil fill.

3. Add 5W-30 oil and replace cap. Do not 

overfill.

4. Clean up any spilled oil and close door.

Models 938030, 034

To check oil level:

1. Turn engine off and let cool for at least 

three minutes.

2. Remove cap from oil fill (Item 11).
