of snow while the snowblower's engine is running.
•
Disengage snowblower. -Lower snowblower to the
ground and set parking brake.
•
SHUT THE ENGINE OFF & REMOVE KEY!
•
Wait 10 seconds to be sure that all moving parts
such as the impeller blades have stopped moving.

Always use a cleaning tool (a wooden stick a
minimum of 3 feet long or the chute shovel supplied
with some models), NEVER YOUR HANDS.
