8. Some parts of the snow
blower may freeze under extreme
temperature conditions. Do not attempt to operate the
snow blower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while the
snow blower is in use, stop the snow blower, remove the
batteries, and inspect for frozen parts. Free all parts before
restarting or operating the snow blower. Never force
controls that have frozen.
9. W
hen working on pebbles, gravel, or unpaved surfaces,
avoid throwing loose surface material along with the snow
by pushing down on the handle to raise the scraper at the
base of the unit above the pebbles or gravel.
10.
For larger areas, a definite pattern of operation is required
to thoroughly clean an area of snow. These patterns will
not only avoid throwing snow in unwanted places, but will
also eliminate the need for a second removal of snow
(Fig. 16).
Pattern A: Throw the snow to the right of left side
where possible. For areas such as a long driveway, it is
advantageous to start in the middle. Plow from one end to
the other, throwing snow to both sides.
Pattern B: If the snow can only be thrown to one side of
the area to be cleared, start on the opposite side.
Headlights
The snow thrower is equipped with 2 headlights that can
be used to illuminate the forward path. The lights will
automatically turn on when batteries are inserted and the snow
blower is switched on, and will automatically turn off when the
snow blower is turned off (Fig. 17).

WARNING
m
Never direct the snow discharge chute at the operator,
at bystanders, at vehicles, or at nearby windows. The
discharged snow and foreign objects accidentally
picked up by the snow thrower can cause serious
damage and personal injury.
Always orient the discharge chute in the opposite
direction from where you, bystanders, surrounding
vehicles, or windows are located.
