Preparation
1. Inspect snow blower for shipping damage. If damage
does exist, do not use. Notify your dealer immediately
to have damaged parts replaced or repaired.
2. Ensure safety guards, attach points, power unit tires
are not damaged and in good condition.
3. Inspect all fasteners that they are not loose or
missing. Ensure fasteners and wheel bolts are torqued
according to the torque chart at the back of this
manual.
4. If traveling at night, ensure provincial state and local
laws for lighting requirements have been met.
5. Ensure that all applicable safety decals are installed
and legible.
6. Personal protection equipment (PPE) including hard
hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, and gloves are
recommended during assembly, installation, operation,
adjustment, maintaining, repairing, removal, cleaning,
or moving the unit. Do not allow long hair, loose fitting
clothing or jewelry to be around equipment.
7. PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY
CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING LOSS!
Gas or diesel powered equipment can often be noisy
enough to cause permanent, partial hearing loss. We
recommend that you wear hearing protection on a full-
time basis. Noise over 85dB on a long-term basis can
cause severe hearing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent
to the Operator over a long-term basis may cause
permanent, total hearing loss.
8. When not attached to the power unit, secure the unit
to prevent movement.
9. Check wiring harness connection and test functions if
applicable.
1. NEVER allow helpers or bystanders under or near the
snow blower.
2. Make sure that the snow blower is fastened securely
to the power unit before moving.
3. Inspect all fastening devices, do not use if worn or
damaged.
4. Make sure that everyone is clear before moving the
snow blower. NEVER position yourself between the
powering unit and the snow blower.
5. Do not permit riders while using this snow blower.
6. Where possible, avoid operating near ditches,
embankments and holes.
7. Snow clearing speed is dependent upon many
factors which includes but is not limited to: visibility,
obstructions, surface condition. Never exceed 15 km/h
(10 mph) while clearing snow. Serious personal injury
can result from clearing at excessive speeds if an
obstruction is encountered.
8. Travelling between job sites, do not exceed 40 km/h
(25 mph). Ensure slow-moving-vehicle (SMV) emblem
has been properly installed at rear of power unit or
snow blower if the power unit SMV is obscured.
9. Avoid distractions and pay attention to the job at hand:
wait until it is safe to operate mobile communication
equipment such as cell phones, text messaging
devices, pagers or two-way radios.
10. Always wear the seat belt, if equipped, when clearing
snow. Sudden contact with a hidden object can result
in serious personal injury.
11. Inspect areas to be cleared before snowfall for
potential hazards, and mark obstructions with stakes
that will be seen when snow covers the ground.
12. Always lower the snow blower to the ground when not
in use.
13. When moving in reverse, turn and look behind you
instead of relying on vehicle mirrors.
14. When exiting or entering your power unit, use caution,
the entry area may be slippery from snow and ice
buildup.
