Throwing Snow
Danger
When the snowthrower is in operation, the
impeller and auger can rotate and cut off or injure
hands and feet.
Before adjusting, cleaning, inspecting,
troubleshooting, or repairing the
snowthrower,
stop the engine and wait for all
moving parts to stop. Disconnect the wire
from the spark plug and keep it away from the
plug to prevent someone from accidentally
starting the engine.
Remove an obstruction from the discharge
chute; refer to Unclogging the Discharge
Chute on page 13. If necessary, use a stick,
not your hands, to remove an obstruction
from the discharge chute.
Stay behind the handles and away from the
discharge opening while operating the
snowthrower.
Keep face, hands, feet, and any other part of
your body or clothing away from concealed,
moving, or rotating parts.
Warning
The rotor blades can throw stones, toys, and
other foreign objects and cause serious personal
injury to the operator or to bystanders.
Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects
that the rotor blades could pick up and throw.
Keep all children and pets away from the area
of operation.
Operating Tips
•
If the engine slows down under a load or the
wheels slip, shift the snowthrower into a lower
gear.
•
If the front of the snowthrower rides up, shift the
snowthrower into a lower gear. If the front
continues to ride up, lift up on the handles.
Unclogging the Discharge Chute
If the auger/impeller is running but there is no snow
coming out of the discharge chute, the discharge
chute may be clogged.
•
To unclog the discharge chute, stay in the
operating position and release the left hand
(traction) lever. While running the auger/impeller,
push down on the handles to raise the front of the
snowthrower a few inches (centimeters) off the
pavement. Then lift the handles quickly to bump
