CLEARING A CLOGGED DISCHARGE
CHUTE
IMPORTANT NOTE
Hand contact with the rotating auger/impeller
inside the discharge chute is the most common
cause of injury associated with snowthrowers.
DO NOT use your hand to clean out the discharge
chute.
To clear the chute:
1. Stop the engine. Remove the key.
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the auger/impeller blades
have stopped rotating.
3. Always use the clean-out tool. DO NOT use your
hands.
WARNING
When BOTH levers are depressed, the Free-
Hand™ Control is activated. This allows Auger
Engage Control to be released — YET AUGER
ROTATION WILL CONTINUE — until the Free-
Hand™ Control is released.

the Speed Selector (A, Figure 5). Release both con-
trol levers before changing drive speeds.
