SECTION 3: KNOW YOUR SNOW THROWER
WARNING:
Be familiar with all controls and
their proper operation. Know how to stop the
machine and disengage them quickly.
Operating Controls
Figure 6
Shift Lever
The shift lever is located in the center of the handle
panel. The shift lever may be moved into one of eight
positions. Run engine with throttle in the fast position.
Use the shift lever to determine ground speed.
Forward:
There are six speeds. Position one (1) is the
slowest. Position six (6) is the fastest.
Reverse:
There are two reverse (R) speeds R1 and
R2. The “R2” closest to the operator (all the way back)
is the faster of the two.
Auger Control
The auger control is located on the left handle.
Squeeze the control to engage the augers; release to
stop the augers. Remember that traction control must
also be released.
Traction / Auger Control Lock
The traction control is located on the right handle.
Squeeze the control to engage the wheel drive.
Release to stop.
This same control also locks the auger control so you
can turn the chute directional control without
interrupting the snow throwing process. If the auger
control is engaged with the traction control engaged,
the operator can release the auger control (on the left
handle) and the augers will remain engaged. Release
the traction control to stop both the augers and wheel
drive (auger control must also be released).
Chute Directional Control
The chute directional control is located on left hand
side of the snow thrower.To change the direction in
which snow is thrown, turn chute directional control as
follows:
•
Crank clockwise to discharge to the left.
•
Crank counterclockwise to discharge to the right.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the engine. It
regulates the speed of the engine. See Figure 7.
Ignition Key
The ignition key must be inserted in the switch before
the unit will start. Remove the ignition key when snow
thrower is not in use.
Fuel Shut-off Valve
(If equipped)
The fuel shut-off valve, located under fuel tank,
