Instructions for use
Oil level checks and refills
Information
• The engine has a combined dipstick/oil filler cap.
• The engine is designed to be used with several different products. This is why it has an oil
filler cap also on the left side. When the engine is assembled in this snow blower it is best to
use the plug on the right side.
The snow blower comes without oil in the engine. The engine oil
MUST
be filled before
the engine is turned on.
1. Remove the oil filler cap
(18) on the right side of
the engine.
2. Pour in the included oil.
After you have refilled
the oil it must reach up to
the filler hole and be visible
on the dipstick. Check
the sticker on the engine.
Check the oil without
screwing the dipstick down
into the hole. You only need
to hold the dipstick against
the hole.
Preparations
• Make sure that the area being cleared is free from loose stones and foreign objects.
• Make sure that the controls are easily manoeuvrable and that they return to their original position
when released.
• Disengage all controls before starting the engine.
• Plan ahead and think about where the cleared snow will be ejected in order to avoid personal
injury or property damage caused by flying objects.
• Never use the snow blower without wearing suitable clothing. Use appropriate footwear with
solid traction, especially in slippery conditions.
• Under no circumstances may maintenance and service be performed when the engine is on
(unless otherwise directed in the instruction manual).
• Always use safety glasses or a visor when operating or carrying out maintenance on the snow blower.
• Adjust the height of the auger housing so that there is enough free clearance when driving over
gravel or similar.
• Let the snow blower adjust to outdoor temperatures before use.
Before use
Before switching the snow blower on, always make sure that the inner impeller can move freely and is
not jammed by any obstruction. Small stones can accumulate between the inner impeller (the impeller
behind the auger) and the drum and prevent the impeller from rotating; the impeller might also have
frozen to the drum. If the inner impeller cannot rotate, the drive belt will soon wear out.
