MAINTENANCE

6. Make sure all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fastened.

Inspect all visible moving parts for damage, breakage, and
wear. Replace if necessary.

7. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly

before painting.

8. Cover the bare metal parts of the snowthrower housing auger,

and the impeller with rust preventative.

9. If possible, store your snowthrower indoors and cover it to give

protection from dust and dirt.

10. On models with folding handles, loosen the knobs that secure

the upper handle. Rotate the upper handle back.

11. If the machine must be stored outdoors, block up the

snowthrower and ensure the entire machine is off the ground.
Cover the snowthrower with a heavy tarpaulin.

STORAGE

WARNING: Never store the engine, with fuel in the tank,
indoors or in a poor ventilated enclosure where fuel
fumes could reach an open flame, spark or pilot light
as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, etc.

Handle gasoline carefully. It is highly flammable and
careless use could result in serious fire damage to
your person and/or property.

Drain fuel into approved containers outdoors, away
from open flame.

If the snowthrower will be stored for thirty (30) days or more at the
end of the snow season, the following steps are recommended to
prepare your snowthrower for storage.

NOTE: Gasoline must be removed or treated to prevent gum
deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose, and
carburetor during storage.

1. Remove gasoline, by running engine until tank is empty and

engine stops. If you do not want to remove the gasoline, add
fuel stabilizer to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize gum
deposits and acids. If the tank is almost empty, mix stabilizer
with fresh gasoline in a separate container and add some of
the mixture to the tank. 

Always follow instructions on stabilizer

container. Then run engine at least 10 minutes after stabilizer
is added to allow mixture to reach carburetor. Store
snowthrower in safe place.

2. You can help keep your engine (4-cycles only) in good

operating condition by changing oil before storage.

3. Lubricate the piston/cylinder area. This can be done by first

removing the spark plug and squirting clean engine oil into the
spark plug hole. Then cover the spark plug hole with a rag to
absorb oil spray. Next, rotate the engine by pulling the starter
two or three times. Finally, reinstall spark plug and attach spark
plug wire.

4. Thoroughly clean the snowthrower.

5. Lubricate all lubrication points (see authorized dealer).

REMOVE FROM STORAGE

1. Put the upper handle in the operating position, tighten the

knobs that secure the upper handle.

2. Fill the fuel tank with a fresh fuel.

3. Check the spark plug. Make sure the gap is correct. If the

spark plug is worn or damaged, replace before using.

4. Make sure all fasteners are tight.

5. Make sure all guards, shields, and covers are in place.

6. Make sure all adjustments are correct.
