Do Not put hands or feet near the rotating auger. Auger contact can
result in serious injury or even death. Stay away until all motion has
stopped and the snow blower is securely blocked up before removing
material, performing service, and making repairs.

• Perform scheduled lubrication as specified in the Maintenance Section
• Inspect the oil level in all gearboxes. A low oil level is a warning sign that the gearbox may be cracked or
its seal is damaged and needs to be replaced.
• Ensure all gearbox vents are in place and free from clogs.
• If the fan must be removed from the gearbox, anti-seize must be added prior to installation.
• Ensure the hydraulic cylinder and hydraulic motors are installed and retained correctly. Ensure the proper
size pins are used to retain the cylinder in place and are secured with pins. Ensure the bolts used to retain
the hydraulic motor are secured and that the pinions attached to the motor are secured and not worn.
• Check for hydraulic leaks on the cylinder, motors, along the hydraulic lines, and at the tractor hydraulic
ports.
Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted
component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to
prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or
even death.
(SSB-33)
Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil or fuel leaking. Oil
and fuel are explosive and their presence could present a hazard. Do
not check for leaks with your hand! High-pressure oil streams from
breaks in the line could penetrate the skin and cause tissue damage
including gangrene. To check for a hose leak, SHUT the unit ENGINE
OFF and remove all hydraulic pressure. Wear oil impenetrable gloves,
safety glasses and use cardboard to check for evidence of oil leaks. If
you suspect a leak, REMOVE the HOSE and have it tested at a Dealer.
If oil does penetrate the skin, have the injury treated immediately by a
physician knowledgeable and skilled in this procedure.
