WARNING
Perform the Safety System Interlock test found in your
tractor Operator’s Manual. If tractor does not pass the
test, do not operate the tractor. See your authorized
dealer. Under no circumstances should you attempt to
defeat the safety system.
Use caution when clearing a snow covered area. Snow
can cover objects such as curbs, drop-offs, and other
obstacles. Be familiar with the area you are clearing.
To prevent an explosion or fire, never store the tractor
with fuel in the tank inside a building where an ignition
source is present.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Always raise the snowthrower before turning or backing
up to prevent damage to the unit.
DANGER
OPERATING ON SLOPES CAN BE DANGEROUS
Never operate on slopes greater than 17.6% (10°)
which is a rise of 3-1/2 feet (106cm) vertically in 10 feet
(607cm) horizontally.
Operate the unit at a slow ground speed when driving
onto slope. Avoid using brakes to control ground speed.
When operating on slopes that are greater than 15 %
(8.5°) but less than 17.6%, use additional wheel weights
or counterweights.
In addition to counterweights, use extra caution when
operating on slopes. Drive UP and DOWN the slope,
never across the face, use caution when changing
directions and DO NOT START OR STOP ON SLOPE.
For additional traction, tire chains and a weight box can
be added. Maximum weight added to tractor should
not exceed 50 lbs. per wheel and 100 additional lbs. in
weight box.
Transporting
1. Disengage the electric clutch and then raise the
snowthrower.
2. Adjust ground speed according to surface conditions.
3. Select a low ground speed when transporting on a
slippery surface.
WARNING
If auger does not start and stop when engaging/
disengaging electric clutch, see your authorized dealer.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to defeat
the safety system.

Normally, a slow ground speed is best for throwing
snow. The deeper or heavier the snow, the slower the
recommended ground speed.

2. Lower the snowthrower.
3. Engage the electric clutch switch. Snowthrower auger
should rotate. Disengage the electric clutch switch.
Snowthrower auger should stop.

ground speed.
5. To stop tractor movement, depress the clutch/brake
pedal. To stop the snowthrower, disengage the electric
clutch. Before leaving the seat, disengage the electric
clutch, set the parking brake, stop the engine, remove
the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
