IMPORTANT

Safe Operation Practices for Walk-Behind Snow Throwers

This snow thrower is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects.

Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury.

WARNING: This snow thrower is for 

use on sidewalks, driveways and other 

ground level surfaces.  Caution should 

be exercised while using on sloping sur-

faces.  Do not use snow thrower on 

surfaces above ground level such as 

roofs of residences, garages, porch es 

or other such structures or buildings.

WARNING: Snow throwers have ex-

 posed rotating parts, which can cause 

severe injury from contact, or from ma-

terial thrown from the discharge chute.  

Keep the area of operation clear of all 

persons, small children and pets at all 

times including startup.

WARNING: Always disconnect spark 

plug wire and place it where it can not 

con tact plug in order to pre vent ac ci -

den tal start ing when setting up, trans-

 port ing, ad just ing or making re pairs.

Look for this symbol to point out im-

 por tant safety precautions.  It means

CAUTION!!!  BE COME ALERT!!!  YOUR 

SAFE TY IS IN VOLVED.

CAUTION: Muffler and other engine 

parts become extremely hot during 

operation and remain hot after engine 

has stopped. To avoid severe burns on 

contact, stay away from these areas.

WARNING: Engine exhaust, some of 

its con stit u ents, and certain vehicle 

com po nents contain or emit chem i-

cals known to the State of Cal i for nia 

to cause can cer and birth defects or 

oth er re pro duc tive harm.

(f)  Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel 

tank or container opening at all times, until refuel-

ing is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open 

device.

(g)  Replace gasoline cap securely and wipe up spilled 

fuel.

(h)  If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing im-

mediately.

5.  Use extension cords and receptacles as specified by 

the manufacturer for all units with electric drive motors 

or electric starting motors.

6.  Adjust the collector housing height to clear gravel or 

crushed rock surface.

7.  Never attempt to make any adjustments while the 

engine (motor) is running (except when specifically 

recommended by manufacturer).

8.  Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during op-

eration or while performing an adjustment or repair to 

protect eyes from foreign objects that may be thrown 

from the machine.

Operation

1.  Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. 

Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

2.   Exercise extreme caution when operating on or cross-

ing gravel drives, walks, or roads.  Stay alert for hidden 

hazards or traffic.

3.  After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor), 

remove the wire from the spark plug, disconnect the 

cord on electric motors, thoroughly inspect the snow 

thrower for any damage, and repair the damage before 

restarting and operating the snow thrower.

4.  If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the 

engine (motor) and check immediately for the cause. 

Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

5.  Stop the engine (motor) whenever you leave the oper-

ating position, before unclogging the collector/impeller 

housing or discharge chute, and when making any 

repairs, adjustments or inspections.

Training

1.  Read, understand and follow all instructions on the 

machine and in the manual(s) before operating this 

unit. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the 

proper use of the equipment. Know how to stop the 

unit and disengage the controls quickly.

2.  Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never 

allow adults to operate the equipment without proper 

instruction.

3.  Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, par-

ticularly small children.

4.  Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling, especially 

when operating the snow thrower in reverse.

Preparation

1.  Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is 

to be used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards, 

wires, and other foreign objects.

2.  Disengage all clutches and shift into neutral before 

starting the engine (motor).

3.  Do not operate the equipment without wearing adequate 

winter garments. Avoid loose fitting clothing that can 

get caught in moving parts. Wear footwear that will 

improve footing on slippery surfaces.

4.  Handle fuel with care; it is highly flammable

(a)  Use an approved fuel container.
(b) Never add fuel to a running engine or hot en-

gine.

(c)  Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill 

fuel tank indoors.

(d)  Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or 

trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place contain-

ers on the ground, away from your vehicle, before 

filling.

(e)  When practical, remove gas-powered equipment 

from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. 

If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment 

on a trailer with a portable container, rather than 

from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
