Operation
Snowthrower Safety Test
DANGER
The discharge chute contains a rotating auger
to throw snow. Never clear or unclog the dis-
charge 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.
DANGER
Hand contact with the rotating auger inside the
discharge chute is the most common cause of
injury associated with snowthrowers.
This snowthrower is capable of amputating hands and feet,
and throwing objects. Read and observe all the safety instruc-
tions in this manual. Failure to do so will result in death or
serious injury.
Test - Auger/Impeller
1. Start unit and engage auger control ( A , Figure 9).
2. Release auger control.
3. Auger must stop in 5 seconds or less.
Discharge Chute and Deflector
Remote Chute Rotation
1. Squeeze and hold the button ( A , Figure 10, inset) on
handle of remote chute control.
2. Push the handle forward to rotate the chute
counterclockwise or pull the handle backwards to rotate
the chute clockwise as shown on Figure 10.
3. Release the button to hold the desired chute location.
NOTE: Do not use excessive force when trying to
operate frozen controls. Clean off any snow and ice
from the base of the chute.
Quick Deflector Adjustment
Squeeze the trigger ( A , Figure 11, inset). in the deflector
handle and adjust the deflector up or down to control the
snow discharge height and distance. Release the trigger to
hold the desired deflector adjustment.
Clear a Clogged Discharge Chute
DANGER
Hand contact with the rotating impeller inside
the discharge chute is the most common
cause of injury associated with snowthrowers.
Never clear or unclog discharge chute with
your hands, or while engine is running.
Fingers can quickly become caught and traumatic amputation
or severe laceration can result.
1. SHUT OFF THE ENGINE!
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure that the impeller blades
have stopped rotating.
3. Use a clean-out tool to remove snow from the auger
housing.
Operating Tips
1. Most efficient snow removal is accomplished when
snow is removed immediately after it falls.
2. For complete snow removal, slightly overlap each swath
previously taken.
3. Snow should be discharged downwind whenever
possible.
4. On gravel or crushed rock surfaces, push down slightly
on the handle bars to avoid ingesting rocks. DO NOT
allow rocks and gravel to be picked up and thrown from
snowthrower.
5. After the snow removal has been completed, allow the
engine to run for a few minutes, to melt accumulated
snow and ice.
6. Clean the snowthrower thoroughly after each use.
7. Before starting snowthrower, always inspect auger for
ice accumulation and/or debris, which could result in
snowthrower damage.
8. Check oil level before every start. Make sure the oil is at
the FULL mark on the oil fill cap/dipstick.
