Red Devil Snow Blowers is a registered trademark of Lankota Group.

  

 

                                                          

OPERATING THE SNOW BLOWER 

 

Make sure the impeller and auger are free of any loose objects.  

 

Check to see that all the shields and guards are in place and in good condition.  

 

Lubricate the snow blower before and after every use. 

 

After starting the engine, engage the PTO.  

 

Ease the blower slowly into the snow.  

 

When clearing deep snow you may have to take more than one cut, starting at the top of the drift.  Remember to disengage the PTO when raising the snow blower.   

 

Stop the blower’s backward motion in order to assure that all snow has passed through the snow blower. 

 

Shallow snow can normally be cleared in one pass, depending on the density of the snow and the available horsepower. 

 

DO NOT BULLDOZE – THE BLOWER WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR BULLDOZING 

 

The most effective method of dispensing snow is to blow the snow as high as possible downwind, if room permits.  

 

The chute deflector will allow you to adjust the height that the snow is thrown. 

 

Reducing the PTO RPM will reduce the distance the snow is thrown. 

 

You can change the direction of the snow being thrown by using the hydraulic chute rotation controls. Always be aware of where you are throwing the snow.  

 

Your snow blower has Manual deflector control.   

 

DO NOT throw the snow toward buildings, livestock, the tractor or any other object that may be damaged.  

 

DO NOT change the chute direction or adjust the deflector while snow is being discharged. This may cause damage to both the chute and deflector.  

 

DO NOT use hydraulic controls until you insure that the chute moves freely. Damage to chute and controls may occur. 

OPERATION SAFETY 

 

Disengage PTO, stop engine, and remove the engine key whenever you leave the equipment seat. 

 

Disengage PTO, stop engine, and remove the engine key after striking a foreign object. Thoroughly inspect the blower before restarting unit. 

 

Disengage PTO, stop engine, and remove the engine key before attempting to service your snow blower or unplugging the impeller and chute.  

 

Do not rotate the chute so that discharge material will be directed toward people, your tractor, or any other object that could be damaged.  

 

Rotating components can catch feet, hands, and loose clothing. Stand clear of all moving parts.  

 

Do not climb or step on or over the snow blower for any reason.  

 

Never operate the snow blower in bad light or poor visibility. 

 

Disengage the PTO while raising, lowering, and transporting the snow blower.  

 

Make sure to read and understand every safety sign on your machine. 

 

Stay clear of the blower at all times while the PTO is engaged.
