Body position - Maintain proper footing and balance at all times. Place heels firmly on the ground
and tightly grasp the handle bar. Watch for uneven surfaces and do not overreach. In case you fall
or collide with the snow thrower, inspect the unit for damage. When stepping backwards, be
careful to avoid obstacles beneath your feet or behind you to avoid falling.
Snow thrower Use and Care
Know your snow thrower - Familiarize yourself with the main parts of your snow thrower.
Read the operator’s manual carefully. Learn your snow thrower’s applications and limitations as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this machine. Do not use this machine for any
purpose other than the one for which it was designed. Otherwise, it may cause mechanical
defaults, serious damage or personal injury.
Preliminary unit inspection - Thoroughly inspect the unit before use. Make sure all the parts are
secure and installed correctly. If you notice any abnormalities, do not use the machine until it has
been properly repaired. Always perform a test run the first time you use the snow thrower or after
replacing parts to ensure that the unit is functioning properly.
Preliminary area inspection - Clear the area to be plowed before each use. Remove all objects
such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or string, which can be thrown by or become entangled in
the snow thrower. Keep the area of operation clear of other people and pets.
Excessive force - The snow thrower was designed to respond at a certain rate for various snow
conditions for optimum safety and performance. Do not force it; keep pressure constant.
Malfunctioning switch - Do not use the snow thrower if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
electrical appliance that cannot be controlled by the switch is not safe to use and must be repaired.
Hitting an object - If the snow thrower accidentally strikes an object, stop the snow thrower; inspect
for damage; repair or replace any damaged part before restarting and operating the snow thrower.
Discharge chute safety - Never direct the snow discharge chute at the operator, at bystanders, at
vehicles or at windows. Thrown snow and foreign objects accidentally picked up by the snow
thrower can cause serious damage and personal injury. Do not use your hands to unclog the
discharge chute. Stop the motor before removing debris.
Abnormal operation - If you notice the snow thrower running in an unstable state or hear abnormal
sounds from the engine, stop the machine, disconnect the power immediately, and contact your
original distributor.
Noise control - When using the snow thrower, you must respect local laws and regulations
regarding noise control and environmental protection. To avoid noise disturbance, you should
carefully decide upon an appropriate operation time and consider the surrounding conditions.
When work is completed - Disconnect the snow thrower from the power source when not in use,
when changing accessories, and before performing any maintenance.
Store safely - Store snow thrower indoors in a dry area between uses. Keep in a locked area
where children and unauthorized users cannot gain access. Do not store the machine while it is
still connected to the power source. It may cause damage and injury.
Maintain for safety and longevity - Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other conditions that may affect the unit’s operation. If damaged, repair or replace
the damaged part before use. Use only those replacement parts made for your model. When
replacing any parts, you must strictly observe the instructions and procedures described in this
manual. Special care should be paid to any rubber parts, since these parts may increase the
engine load and decrease its mechanical power if damaged.
