Operating Tips
m
WARNING!
Foreign objects, such as rocks, broken
glass, nails, wire, or string, can be picked up and thrown by
the snow blower, causing serious personal injury. Remove all
foreign objects from the area to be plowed before operating
the snow blower.
1. Keep the area of operation free of foreign objects that can
become thrown by the rotor blades. Perform a thorough
inspection of the area since some objects may be hidden
from view by surrounding snow. If the snow blower hits
an obstruction or picks up a foreign object during use,
stop the snow blower, remove the batteries, remove the
obstruction, and inspect the unit for damage. Repair or
replace any damaged part before restarting and operating
the unit.
2. Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the area of
operation. Be aware that the normal noise of the machine
when turned on may make it difficult for you to hear
approaching people.
3. When moving the snow blower, use the wheels on one
side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the snow blower on this
pivot point to move it forward or backward.
4. Start your clearing path outward, throwing snow in a back
and forth motion. To clear in the opposite direction,
pivot the snow blower on its wheels. Make sure to overlap
clearing paths.
5. Note the wind direction. If possible, move in the same
direction as the wind so that the snow is not thrown
against the wind (and thus back into your face and on the
just cleared path).
6. Do not push the snow blower with excessive force.
You should push the machine gently and evenly in
accordance with the unit’s throw rate.
7. Do not apply additional man-made load to the motor since
this may cause motor damage.
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. When 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.
Headlight
The snow blower is equipped with a headlight that can be
used to illuminate the forward path in the dark. The headlight
will be turned on once the machine is started by depressing
the safety switch button and pulling the ON/OFF trigger
(Fig. 18).
NOTE: The light will only turn ON when the snow blower is
running. The light will automatically turn off 30 seconds after
the machine powers off.
