Operation
Operate the Snowthrower
WARNING
Before operating, make sure the area in front
of the snowthrower is clear of bystanders or
obstacles.
DO NOT discharge snow toward a building as hidden
objects could be thrown with sufficient force to cause
damage.
1. Start the engine. See Start the Engine in this section.
2. Adjust the direction and angle of the discharge chute
( A , Figure 8). See Discharge Chute and Deflector in this
section
3. Fully press and hold the auger control ( B ) to engage
the auger rotation. Releasing the auger control lever will
disengage the auger.
3. Push the unit into the snow.
Note: When clearing wet, heavy, snow, reduced your
speed, maintain full throttle, and clear less than the full
width of the unit.
4. Tip the handle bars ( C ) forward slightly. This will cause
the snowthrower to pull itself forward.
