the front of the snowthrower on the pavement.
Repeat if necessary until a stream of snow comes
out the discharge chute.
•
If you cannot unclog the discharge chute by
bumping the front of the snowthrower, stop the
engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
use a stick; never use your hand.
Important: Unclogging the discharge chute by
bumping the front of the snowthrower on the
pavement may cause the skids to move. Adjust
the skids and tighten the skid bolts securely.
Preventing Freeze-up
•
In snowy and cold conditions, some controls and
moving parts may freeze. Do not use excessive
force when trying to operate frozen controls.
If you have difficulty operating any part, start the
engine and let it run for a few minutes.
•
After using the snowthrower, let the engine run for
a few minutes to prevent moving parts from
freezing. Engage the auger/impeller to clear any
remaining snow from inside the housing. Rotate
the Quick Stick to prevent it from freezing. Stop
the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove all ice and snow from the snowthrower.
•
With the engine off, pull the recoil starter handle
several times to prevent the recoil starter from
freezing up.
