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.

Proper Care for B Charger

m

WARNING! 

To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug 

the charger and remove the battery pack from the charger 

before performing any maintenance task. Never disassemble 

the battery pack or charger. Contact your Snow Joe

 customer 

service center for ALL repairs.

1. 

To reduce the risk of injury and damage, never immerse 

your battery pack or charger in liquid or allow any liquid to 

flow inside these components.

2.  Clean out dust and debris from charger vents and 

electrical contacts by blowing with compressed air.

3.  Use only mild soap on a damp cloth to clean the battery 

pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical 

contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are 

harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of 

these include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint 

thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and 

household detergents containing ammonia. Never use 

flammable or combustible solvents around battery packs, 

battery chargers or tools.

4.  The EcoSharp

 iCHRG40 lithium-ion battery charger has 

no serviceable parts.
