·Take care when reversing. Look behind you before and during reversing to check for any
obstacles.
·Never point the discharge chute towards bystanders. Do not allow anyone to stand in front of
the machine.
·Disengage the auger when the snow thrower is to be transported or is not in use. Do not drive
too fast on slippery surfaces when transporting.
·Only use accessories that are approved by the machine’s manufacturer.
·Never drive the snow thrower in bad visibility or without satisfactory lighting.

MAINITENANCE AND STORAGE
·Tighten all nuts and screws so that the machine is in safe working condition. Check the shear
bolts regularly.
·Always use genuine spare parts. Non-genuine spare parts can entail a risk of injury, even if
they fit the machine.
·Never store the machine with petrol in the tank in buildings where the fumes can com into
contact with open flames or sparks.
·Allow the engine to cool before putting the machine in store.
·Before a long storage, check the instructions for recommendations.
·Replace damage warning and instruction stickers.
·Let the engine run a couple of minutes with the auger connected after use. This prevents the
auger from freezing solid.
The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared total
value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
