Fuse Replacement
Rotate the fuse holder cover and pull the fuse out. If blown, replace
with a fuse of the same type and rating.
Storage Precautions
If your snow blower will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and
carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor
ignition. Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any
appliance that operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater,
or clothes dryer. Also avoid any area with a spark-producing electric
motor, or where power tools are operated.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, which promote
rust and corrosion.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel
valve in the OFF position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Place the snow blower on a level surface. Tilting can cause fuel or
oil leakage.
With the engine and exhaust system completely cooled, cover the
snow blower to keep out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can
ignite or melt some materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust
cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture around the engine,
promoting rust and corrosion.
Removal from Storage
Check your snow blower as described in
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with
fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be
sure that it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and
deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the
engine may smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.

Possible cause
Correction
Throttle not in the proper
position.
Throttle must be in the FAST
position.
Choke not in the proper
position
Choke should be in the OFF
position for a hot start. Choke
should be in the ON position for
a cold start.
Fuel valve is OFF.
Sediment cup obstructed.
Turn the fuel valve lever to ON
(see
). Check for
contaminates in the sediment
cup (see
Stale or old fuel.
Be sure the tank has fresh fuel.
Drain the carburetor and
sediment cup (see
).
Spark plug cap off.
Improper electrode gap or
deposits in the spark plug
gap.
Make sure the cap is
connected. Verify that the spark
plug is free of deposits, and has
the proper gap (see
Possible cause
Correction
Too fast ground speed when
blowing wet, deep snow puts
excessive load on engine.
Blow snow at slower ground
speed.
Throttle lever not in the
FAST position.
Always move the throttle to the
FAST position when blowing
snow.
Wet, deep cuts place
excessive load on the
engine.
Reduce the snow blowing
swath.
Discharge chute restricted.
Clear the discharge chute
obstructions (see
).
Spark plug cap not secure.
Improper electrode gap or
deposits on the electrodes.
Make sure the spark plug cap is
securely connected.
Verify the spark plug is free of
deposits and has the proper
gap.
Stale or old fuel.
Add fresh fuel. Drain the
carburetor and sediment cup
(
).
Possible cause
Correction

position (see
Shift lever is in “N” (Neutral).
Move shift lever to “F” or “R”
