result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before beginning snowthrower
Operation. We recommend standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask for over spectacles.
SNOWTHROWER OPERATION
The most effective use of the snowthrower
will be
established by experience, taking into consideration the
terrain, wind conditions and building location which will
determine the direction of the discharge chute.
NOTE: Do not blow snow towards a building as hidden
objects could be blown with sufficient force to cause
damage.
