Operating Tips
• Ensure that the scraper blade at the base of the unit
contacts the ground and start the electric snow shovel.
Push the shovel forward at a comfortable rate, yet slow
enough to clear the path completely. The clearing width of
the snow shovel and the depth of snowfall should dictate
your forward speed.
•
Direct the snow discharge to the right or to the left by
holding the electric snow shovel at a slight angle.
• To remove snow most efficiently, throw the snow
downwind and slightly overlap each swath.
• If you need to clear snow from a crushed rock or gravel
surface, tilt the handle down to raise the scraper bar up
enough to clear any loose material that could be picked
up and thrown by the auger.
• This electric snow shovel cuts a path 10 in. (25.4 cm) wide
and up to 6 in. (15 cm) deep in one pass.
• When clearing deeper drifts, hold the electric snow shovel
by the upper and lower handles and use a swinging or
sweeping motion. Remove up to 6 in. (15 cm) of snow with
each pass and repeat as many times as needed.
• Keep the cord clear of obstructions, sharp objects and the
rotating auger. Do not pull sharply on the cord or abuse
it in any manner. Frequently inspect the cord for signs of
damage. If damage is found, replace the cord immediately.
• Disconnect the extension cord after using the electric
snow shovel. Hang the extension cord with the shovel so
it will not be misplaced or damaged.
