3. Release the auger control handle and the drive control handle when you
finish clearing a snow path.
ATTENTION! Release (disengage) the auger and drive control handles before
adjusting the drive speed control lever. Never change the drive speed while
your snowblower is moving, it could damage the drive mechanism.
DRIVE SPEED CONTROL LEVER
Move the drive speed control lever to the desired
speed. There are eight settings: six forward speeds
and two reverse speeds. The forward speed settings
start with 1 as the slowest speed and 6 as the
fastest. Reverse speed has R1 for the slowest
reverse speed and R2 as the faster reverse speed.
There is no neutral drive setting since the drive
control handle must be engaged for movement.
Neutral is achieved when the drive control handle is disengaged.
CHUTE DISCHARGE DIRECTION
The discharge chute may be angled across a 180º degree range from right to
left to eject snow in a safe direction. Rotate the chute deflector lever (B) to
adjust the chute’s angle, clockwise for left and counterclockwise for right.
CHUTE DISCHARGE ANGLE
WARNING! Always disengage the drive and auger control handles before making
adjustments. Make sure the augers are
stopped and the machine is not moving.
The angle of the chute deflector controls the
discharge distance of the snow. Raising the
angle will increase the distance. Lowering
the angle will decrease the distance.
1. Loosen the knobs on the chute
deflector and adjust the chute deflector to the desired angle (Fig. 7).
2. Retighten the knobs. Do not over-tighten.
