WARNING!
Make sure to turn off the switch and
remove the battery before performing any maintenance task
on your snow blower.
Lifetime Lubrication (Motor + Auger)
Lubrication is not necessary and may damage the unit. The snow
blower is lubricated for lifetime use at the factory before shipment.
General Maintenance Tips
1. Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the
proper tools and instructions for disassembly and repair of
the machine.
2. Check bolts and screws at frequent intervals for proper
tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe
working condition.
3.
After each snow removal session, run the snow
blower
for a few minutes to prevent the collector/impeller from
freezing. Shut off the motor, wait for all revolving parts
to stop
completely, and wipe residual ice and snow off
the unit.
Rotate the chute deflector by the remote switch
several times to remove any excess snow.
