Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable.

Use an approved fuel container.

Never add fuel to a running engine or hot 
engine.

Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. 
Never fill fuel tank indoors.

Never fill containers inside a vehicle or 
on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic 
liner. Always place containers on the 
ground, away from your vehicle, before 
filling.

When practical, remove gas-powered 
equipment from the truck or trailer and 
refuel it on the ground. If this is not 
possible, then refuel such equipment on 
a trailer with a portable container, rather 
than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of 
the fuel tank or container opening at all 
times, until refueling is complete. Do not 
use a nozzle lock-open device.

Replace gasoline cap securely and wipe 
up spilled fuel.

If fuel is spilled on clothing, change 
clothing immediately.

Never attempt to make any adjustments 
while the engine (motor) is running (except 
when specifically recommended by 
manufacturer).
Always allow unit and engine to adjust to 
outdoor temperature before clearing snow.

Operation

Never leave a running unit unattended. 
Always shut off engine before leaving unit.
Do not put hands or feet near or under 
rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge 
opening at all times.
Moving and/or rotating parts can cut off body 
parts such as fingers or a hand. Always 
keep hands, feet and clothing away from all 
rotating parts during operation.
Always keep hands away from all pinch 
points.
Do not touch unit parts which might be hot 
from operation. Allow parts to cool before 
attempting to maintain, adjust or service.
Check for weak spots on docks, ramps or 
floors. Avoid uneven work areas and rough 
terrain. Stay alert for hidden hazards.
Exercise extreme caution when operating on 
or crossing gravel drives, walks or roads. 
Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic. 

After striking a foreign object, stop the 
engine (motor), remove the wire from the 
spark plug, thoroughly inspect the snow 
thrower for any damage, and repair the 
damage before restarting and operating the 
snow thrower.
If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, 
stop the engine (motor) and check 
immediately for the cause.
Stop the engine (motor) whenever you leave 
the operating position, before unclogging the 
auger/impeller housing or discharge chute, 
and when making any repairs, adjustments 
or inspections.
When cleaning, repairing or inspecting the 
snow thrower, make certain the 
auger/impeller and all moving parts have 
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and 
keep the wire away from the plug to prevent 
someone from accidentally starting the 
machine. 
Do not run the engine (motor) indoors. Open 
the outside doors; exhaust fumes are 
dangerous.
Never operate the snow thrower without 
proper guards and other safety protective 
devices in place.
Thrown objects can cause injury. Never 
direct the discharge toward people or areas 
where property damage can occur from 
thrown objects. Keep children and others 
away.
Do not overload the machine capacity by 
attempting to clear snow at too fast a rate. 
Slow down and turn corners slowly.
Never operate the machine at high transport 
speeds on slippery surfaces. Look behind 
and use care when backing.
Do not operate in reverse unless absolutely 
necessary. Always back up slowly and look 
down and behind before and while backing.
Do not carry passengers.
Disengage attachment drive when traveling 
from one work area to another.
Disengage power to the auger/impeller 
when snow thrower is transported or not in 
use.
Use only attachments and accessories 
approved by the manufacturer of the snow 
thrower (such as wheel weights, 
counterweights or cabs).
