GENERAL REC OM MEN DA TIONS

The warranty on this snow thrower does not cover items that 
have been sub ject ed to operator abuse or negligence.  To 
receive full value from the warranty, operator must maintain 
snow thrower as in struct ed in this manual.  Some ad just -
ments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain 
your snow thrower.

All adjustments in the Service and Ad just ments section of 
this manual should be checked at least once each season.

•     Once a year, you should replace the spark plug and 

check belts for wear.  A new spark plug will help your 
engine run better and last longer.

•      Follow the maintenance schedule in this manual.

NOTE:

 Use only Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) 

parts to service this unit.  Failure to do so can cause the unit 
to malfunction and pose a risk of injury to the operator.
