CONTROL
IMPORTANT: Your model snow thrower is equipped
with an oil expansion tank attached to the hydrostat-
ic transmission (see fig. 13). As you run your snow
thrower, the oil level will rise in this tank as the oil
heats up and recess as the oil cools. This is normal
operation. You do not need to add oil to this tank as
part of regular maintenance.
