WARNING!
Hand contact with the rotating impeller
is the most common cause of injury associated with snow
blowers. Never use your hands to clear a clogged discharge
chute. Shut off engine and remain behind handles until all
moving parts have stopped before unclogging.
To clear the discharge chute:
1.
Release both the auger trigger and the drive trigger.
2.
Press the safety switch down and turn the key to OFF
position. Remove the key.
3.
Wait 10 seconds and make sure impeller blades have
stopped rotating.
4.
Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which secures it
to the top of the auger housing.
5.
Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to
dislodge and scoop any snow and ice which has formed
in and near the discharge chute.
6.
Refasten the clean-out tool to mounting clip on the top of
the auger housing, rotate the safety switch clockwise and
pull up the safety switch, insert key and turn on to start
the snow blower’s motor.
While standing in the operator’s position (behind the snow
blower), engage the auger trigger for a few seconds to clear
any remaining snow and ice from the discharge chute.
Discharge Chute Deflector (Fig. 8)
The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute controls
the height of the snow stream.
NOTE:
ALWAYS position discharge chute deflector at a safe
angle before engaging the auger. (See Assembly section on
page 9; fig. 8).
DO NOT throw snow any higher than necessary.
Discharge Chute (Fig. 19)
Snow drawn into the auger housing is discharged out of the
chute assembly.
The discharge chute can be controlled 180 degrees by rotating
with the chute crank.
m
WARNING!
NEVER direct the snow discharge chute at
the operator, at bystanders, at vehicles, or at nearby windows.
The discharged snow and foreign objects accidentally picked
up and thrown by the snow blower can cause serious damage
and personal injury.
