WARNING!
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 and thrown by the snow blower can cause serious damage
and personal injury.
Always orient the discharge chute in the opposite direction
from where the operator, bystanders, surrounding vehicles, or
windows are located.
1.
The discharge chute can be controlled 180 degrees by
rotating the chute with the remote switch (Fig. 22).
2.
The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute
controls the height of the snow stream. Loosen the knobs
to raise or
lower the deflector to the desired height of
snow you wish to throw. Tighten the knobs to secure the
deflector (Fig.
23).
m
WARNING!
Make sure that the chute deflector locks
completely onto the discharge chute. An opening between
the back of the discharge chute and the chute deflector may
allow foreign objects to be picked up by the snow blower and
thrown in the direction of the operator causing serious bodily
injury.
• Do not advance the chute deflector too far forward as this
can cause an opening to appear behind the deflector and
discharge chute.
• Do not overtighten the knobs on the chute deflector
(Fig. 23).

General Maintenance Tips
1.
Do not attempt to repair the machine unless you have the
proper tools and instructions for disassembly and repair of
the machine.
2.
Check bolts and screws at frequent intervals for proper
tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe working
condition.
3.
After each snow removal session, run the snow blower for
a few minutes to prevent the auger/impeller from freezing.
Shut off the motor, wait for all revolving parts to stop
completely, and wipe residual ice and snow off the unit.
Rotate the chute deflector by the remote switch several
times to remove any excess snow.
