Pre-Operation Inspection -
IMPORTANT!!!
Before using your Snow Thrower for the first
time, check the following:
• Have you read and followed all setup and operation
procedures for the engine as outlined in the
ENGINE manual?
• Has the engine been filled with oil to the proper
level?
• Are all snow thrower components properly attached
and assembled?
• Are there any broken or damaged parts?
• Are all fasteners tight?
• Is the auger control cable routed properly so that it
is not kinked and operates smoothly?
• is the auger controls cable adjusted correctly?
NOTICE: If you are unsure about the assembly or
condition of any of your Snow Thrower parts,
please call customer service department.
Auger Operation
1. To engage the auger, pull on the auger control
handle.
2. When finished clearing a snow path, release
the auger control handle.
Chute Discharge Direction and
Angle Adjustment
WARNING - Never direct the snow discharge
chute at the operator, bystanders, vehicles or
nearby windows. Discharged snow and foreign
objects accidentally picked up by the Snow
Thrower can cause serious damage and severe
bodily injury. Always point the discharge chute in
the opposite direction from potential hazards.
The discharge chute can be adjusted 180º by
rotating the chute rotation handle. Rotate the
chute rotation handle clockwise to move the
discharge chute to the left; counterclockwise to
move the chute to the right.
The angle of the chute deflector controls the
discharge distance of the snow. Raising the
angle will increase the distance. Lowering the
angle will decrease the distance.
The angle can be adjusted by moving the chute
deflector control lever. Move the lever to the left
to raise the throwing height and move the lever to
the right to lower the throwing height.
