NOTE:
Securing the extension cord in this way helps to prevent you from
acciden-tally disconnecting the extension cord from the snow shovel during
operation.
Plug the extension cord into a wall outlet.
Keep the area to be cleared free of stones, toys or other foreign objects that
the rotating paddles might pick up and throw. Such items could be covered by
snow and are easy to overlook, so be sure to conduct a thorough inspection of
the area before operating the snow shovel.
STARTING AND TOPPING
To start the electric snow shovel, push and hold the safety lock button on the
top of the handle grip with your thumb and then squeeze the trigger switch with
your fingers. Once the machine powers on, you can release the safety lock
button and proceed with operation (Fig. 7).
To stop the electric snow shovel, release the trigger switch (Fig. 7).
OPERATING TIPS
Start the electric snow shovel and tilt it forward until the scraper blade at the
base of the unit contacts the ground. Push the shovel forward at a comfortable
rat e, 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
down- wind and slightly overlap each swath.
If you need to clear snow from a crushed rock or gravel surface, push down on
the handle to clear the scraper of any loose material that the rotating paddles
could throw.
