Electrical Safety

1.

  Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should  

be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for  

the snow thrower. Receptacles are available having  

built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this  

measure of safety.

2. 

To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord 

suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, 

STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.

  Before use, check that the extension cord is in good 

condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to 

use one heavy enough to carry the current your product 

will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line 

voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

3. 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has  

a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other).  

Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA-, or 

ETL-rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use.  

The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension  

cord only one way.

  If the appliance plug does not fit fully into the extension 

cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain 

a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension 

cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. The 

extension cord plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet 

only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall 

outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, 

contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall 

outlet. Do not modify the appliance plug, extension cord 

receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way. 

4. 

To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from the 

extension cord during operation, use the on-board cord 

restraint hook and/or make a knot with the two cords as 

shown in Table 1.

5. 

Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the snow thrower by the 

cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the receptacle. 

Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
