OPERATION
WARNING:
Never use snow thrower on frozen lakes, rivers, or similar
surfaces. Death or serious injury could occur if the ice
breaks.
WARNING:
Never use the snow thrower on a rooftop or other un-
stable surface, which can result in death or serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not use snow thrower on ice, which can cause the
operator to slip and fall, resulting in possible serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not wear loose clothing, scarves, or jewelry. They can
be caught in moving parts and cause death or serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Keep all snow discharge pointed away from all electri-
cal devices to reduce the risk of electrocution or electric
shock.
WARNING:
Never point the snow thrower in the direction of people
or pets. Thrown snow or other objects can cause serious
personal injuries.
WARNING:
Make sure the area to be cleared is free of stones, sticks,
wires, gravel, and other objects that could be accidentally
thrown by the snow thrower in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator and others.
When using the snow thrower attachment, hold the unit with
your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on
the front handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in
operation. The snow thrower should be held at a comfortable
position with the rear handle about hip height.
NOTE:
When used with a gas power head, always operate
at full throttle. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result
in oil dripping from the muffler. If temperature is below 40°F,
allow the engine to warm up by running it in the half choke
position for approx. 15-30 seconds before beginning snow
thrower operation.
Take notice of the direction of the wind before beginning.
When possible, discharge snow in the same direction as
the wind to prevent snow from being thrown back into
your face.
Work in one direction. Start the snow thrower and push
forward to clear snow, then stop the engine or motor as
you return to the starting point to begin plowing another
strip.
The snow thrower has a clearing depth of 4 in. If your
snow is deeper than 4 in., it may take more than one pass
to clear.
If the unit comes in contact with any type of obstruction
or debris during use, stop the snow thrower, disconnect
from power supply, remove the obstruction, and inspect
the unit carefully for damage before proceeding.
WARNING:
Never reach into the impeller or place any body part in
front of the snow thrower when the unit is operating or
when the unit is plugged in or has a battery installed.
Always ensure all moving parts have stopped and the
snow thrower has been unpugged, battery pack has
been removed, or spark plug wire has been disconnected
before clearing any obstructions. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious personal injury.
Some parts of the snow thrower can freeze under extreme
weather conditions. Do not attempt to operate the unit
with frozen parts.
When finished, allow the unit to run for several minutes
to allow all snow to clear the impeller before storing.
NOTE:
The snow thrower is designed to move loose or
powdery snow that has not been compacted. Attempt-
ing to remove heavy loads of compacted snow or frozen
accumulation can damage the tool.
