OPERATION
Control Levers
Figure 4
DANGER: The discharge chute contains a rotating
impeller to throw snow. Never clear or unclog the
discharge chute with your hands. Fingers can quickly
become caught and traumatic amputation or severe
laceration will result. Always use a clean-out tool to
clear or unclog the discharge chute.
WARNING: The operation of any snowthrower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before beginning snowthrower operation. We recommend
standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask over spectacles.
CAUTION: Before operating, make sure the area in
front of the snowthrower is clear of bystanders or
obstacles.
NOTICE: Do not throw snow toward a building as hidden
objects could be thrown with sufficient force to cause
damage.
