Personal Safety

1.  Stay alert – Watch what you are doing and use common 

sense when operating the snow thrower. Do not use the 

machine when tired, ill or under the influence of drugs, 

alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention may result 

in serious personal injury.

2.  Wear proper clothing – 

Wearing rubber boots offers 

additional protection from electric shock. Do not wear 

loose clothing or jewelry that may become caught in the 

machine. Wear protective headgear to keep hair away 

from revolving parts of the machine. Safety glasses offer 

better protection than everyday eyeglasses.

3.  Moving parts present risks – Keep your face, hair, 

clothing, hands and feet away from moving parts. All 

guards and safety attachments must be installed properly 

before using the unit. Shut off and disconnect 

the cord 

before touching any parts other than the handles and  

the switch.

4.  Surfaces – This snow thrower is intended for use on 

paved surfaces. Do not use on gravel, stone or other 

unpaved surfaces unless the snow thrower is adjusted for 

such surfaces according to the instructions given in this 

operator’s manual.

5.  Avoid accidental starting – Make sure the switch is in the 

off position before plugging in the unit. Do not carry the 

snow thrower with your finger on the switch. 

6.  Body position – Maintain proper footing and balance 

at all times. Place heels firmly on the ground and tightly 

grasp the handle bar. Watch for uneven surfaces and do 

not overreach. In case you fall or collide with the snow 

thrower, inspect the unit for any damages or cracks. 

When stepping backwards, be careful to avoid obstacles 

beneath your feet or behind you to avoid falling.

7.  If the snow thrower strikes any object, immediately 

stop the snow thrower, then inspect for damage – 

Repair any damage before restarting and operating the 

snow thrower.

Safety Instructions for Walk-Behind 

Snow Throwers

•  Read the operator’s manual carefully – 

Learn your 

snow thrower’s applications and limitations as well as the 

specific potential hazards related to this machine. Do not 

use this machine for any purpose other than the one for 

which it was designed. Otherwise, it may cause mechanical 

defaults, serious damage or personal injury.

•  Preliminary unit inspection – 

Thoroughly inspect the 

unit before use. Make sure all the parts are secure and 

installed correctly. If you notice any abnormalities, do not 

use the machine until it has been properly repaired. Always 

perform a test run the first time you use the snow thrower 

or after replacing parts to ensure that the unit is functioning 

properly.

•  Preliminary area inspection – 

Clear the area to be plowed 

before each use. Remove all objects, such as rocks, broken 

glass, nails, wire or string, which can be thrown by or 

become entangled in the snow thrower. Keep the area of 

operation clear of all spectators, particularly children  

and pets.

•  Excessive force – 

The snow thrower was designed to 

respond at a certain rate for various snow conditions for 

optimum safety and performance. Do not force it; keep 

pressure constant.

•  Malfunctioning switch – 

Do not use the snow thrower 

if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any electrical 

appliance that cannot be controlled by the switch is not 

safe to use and must be repaired.

•  Hitting an object – 

If the snow thrower accidentally strikes 

an object, follow these steps:

  i)   Stop the snow thrower and unplug the unit
  ii)  Inspect for damage
 iii) Repair or replace any damaged part before restarting  

     and operating the snow thrower.

• 

Discharge chute safety – Never direct the snow discharge 

chute at the operator, at bystanders, at vehicles or at 

windows. The discharged snow stream and foreign objects 

accidentally picked up by the snow thrower can cause 

serious damage and personal injury. Do not use your hands 

to unclog the discharge chute. Stop the motor before 

removing debris.

•  Hand-held operating position – 

Operation of the snow 

thrower in the hand-held position is unsafe.

•  Abnormal operation – 

If you notice the snow thrower 

running in an unstable state or hear abnormal sounds from 

the engine, immediately stop the machine, disconnect the 

power and contact an authorized Snow Joe

service center.

•  Noise control – 

When using the snow thrower, you must 

respect local laws and regulations regarding noise control 

and environmental protection. To avoid noise disturbance, 

you should carefully decide upon an appropriate operation 

time and consider the surrounding conditions.

•  When work is completed – 

Disconnect the snow thrower 

from the power source when not in use, when changing 

accessories and before performing any maintenance 

function.

•  Store safely – 

Store the snow thrower indoors in a dry area 

between uses. Keep it in a locked area, where children and 

unauthorized users cannot gain access. Do not store the 

machine while it is still connected to the power source as 

this may result in damage and injury.
