during reversing to check for any obstacles.

transported or is not in use Do not drive too fast on
slippery surfaces when transporting.

manufacturer.

satisfactory lighting.
• Always ensure you have a good balance and a tight grip
on the handle.
• Never use the snow thrower on a roof.

2.4 MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Tighten all nuts and screws so that the machine is in safe

• Always use genuine spare parts. Non-genuine spare parts
can entail a risk of injury, even if they fit the machine.
• Never store the machine with petrol in the tank in
buildings where the fumes can come into contact with
open flames or sparks.
• Allow the engine to cool before putting the machine in
store.
• Before a long storage, check the instructions for
