• Adjust the snow discharge chute to avoid hitting the operator,
bystanders, windows, and other objects with ejected snow. Stay
clear of the snow chuter while the engine is running.
• Children and pets must be kept away from the area of operation to
avoid injury from flying debris and contact with the snow thrower.
• Do not use the snow thrower to remove snow from roofs.
• To avoid overturning, be careful when changing the direction of the
snow thrower while operating it on a slope.
• The snow thrower may overturn on steep slopes if left unattended,
causing injury to the operator or bystanders.
• Do not use the snow thrower on a slope of more than 10° (17%).
• The maximum safe grade angle shown is for reference purposes only.
To avoid tipping the snow thrower over, stay off slopes too steep for
safe operation. The risk of snow thrower upset is even higher when
the surface is loose, wet or uneven.
• Before starting the engine, check that the snow thrower is not
damaged and in good condition. For your safety and safety of
others, exercise extreme care when using the snow thrower up or
down hill.
• If the snow discharge chute becomes clogged, stop the engine and
use a snow drop bar or a wooden stick to unclog it.
Never put your hand into the snow discharge chute while the engine
is running; serious personal injury could result.
