Operating, servicing and maintaining this equipment can expose you to chemicals including
gasoline, diesel fuel, lubricants, petroleum products, engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, and
phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the
engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. Battery posts, terminals and
related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go

Health Hazard Assessment, provides information about these chemicals and how
individuals may be exposed to them.
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service on
the Snow Blower. Never work on the Snow Blower with the Tractor PTO driveline connected
and running. The Fan, Auger or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause immediate
entanglement, injury or death.
(SSB-8)
All Safety Shields, Guards and Safety devices including (but not limited to) - the Chain
Shield, Cross Shaft Shield, Gearbox Shields, and PTO integral shields must be used and
maintained in good working condition. All safety devices should be inspected carefully at
least daily for missing or broken components. Missing, broken, or worn items must be
replaced at once to reduce the possibility of injury or death from entanglement.
(SSB-9)
DO NOT weld or repair rotating Blower components. Welds and other repairs may cause
severe vibration and/or component failure resulting in parts being thrown from the blower
causing serious bodily injury. See your Authorized Dealer for proper repairs.
(SSB-14)
Ensure any remote starting system is inoperative before servicing or cleaning the machine.
Inadvertent engine start up could result in entanglement or runover causing serious injuries
or death.
(SSB-17)
Use only OEM specified shear pins as replacement pins. The use of incorrect shear pins
can cause failures in the Snow Blower rotating components resulting in property damage
and/or serious bodily injuries.
(SSB-19)
Do Not fill fuel tank while engine is running. Refuel only after engine has cooled down. If
fuel is spilled, move machine away from the area of the spill and avoid creating any source
of ignition until the spill has been cleaned up.
(SG-28)
Perform service, repairs and lubrication according to the maintenance section. Ensure the
unit is properly lubricated as specified in the lubrication schedule and all bolts and nuts are
properly torqued. Failure to properly service, repair and maintain this Implement in good
operating condition could cause component failure and possible serious injury or even
death.
