1. To power on, depress and hold the safety switch button found alongside the
switch housing (Fig. 21 ).

you. Once the machine powers on, release the safety switch button and begin
operation (Fig. 22). The machine can only be started by depressing the safety
switch button first, followed by squeezing the ON/OFF switch bail; reverse
operation will not start the machine.

4. The LED light can be used to illuminate the surface in front in the dark. To use
the light, turn on the light switch located on the back side of the snow blower
(Fig. 23).
NOTE: The light will only turn ON when the snow blower is running. After
finishing your work session, REMEMBER to TURN OFF the light switch.
MOVING THE MACHINE & PLOWING THE SNOW
WARNING! Foreign objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or
string, can be picked up and thrown by the snow blower, causing serious
personal injury. Remove all foreign objects from the area to be plowed before
operating the snow blower.
1. Keep the area of operation free of foreign objects that can become thrown by the
rotating paddle. Perform a thorough inspection of the area since some objects may
be hidden from view by surrounding snow. If the snow blower hits an obstruction
or picks up a foreign object during use, stop the snow blower, disconnect the
extension cord, remove the obstruction, and inspect the unit for damage. Repair
or replace any damaged part before restarting and operating the unit.
2. Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the area of operation. Be aware
that the normal noise of the machine when turned on may make it difficult for
you to hear approaching people.
3. When moving the snow blower, use the wheels on one side as the pivot point.
Slightly tilt the snow blower on this pivot point to move it forward or backward.
4. Start your clearing path near the electrical outlet and work outward, throwing
snow in a back and forth motion. To clear in the opposite direction, step over the
cord and pivot the snow blower on its wheels. Make sure to overlap clearing paths.
