Clearing a Clogged
Discharge Chute
WARNING
If the auger/impeller is running but there is no
snow coming out of the discharge chute, the
discharge chute may be clogged.
Never use your hands to clear a clogged
discharge chute. This could result in personal
injury.
•
To unclog the discharge chute, stay in the
operating position and release the left (traction)
lever. While running the auger/impeller, push down
on the handles to raise the front of the machine a
few centimeters (inches) off the pavement. Then
lift the handles quickly to bump the front of the
machine on the pavement. Repeat if necessary
until a stream of snow comes out the discharge
chute.
•
If you cannot unclog the discharge chute by
bumping the front of the machine,
shut off the
engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
use the snow-cleanout tool (
Figure 14 ).
Important:
Unclogging the discharge chute
by bumping the front of the machine on the
pavement may cause the skids to move. Adjust
the skids and tighten the skid bolts securely;
refer to
Checking and Adjusting the Skids and
Scraper (page 17) .
Operating Tips
DANGER
When the machine is in operation, the impeller
and auger rotate and can injure or amputate
hands or feet.
• Before adjusting, cleaning, inspecting,
troubleshooting, or repairing the machine,
shut off the engine and wait for all moving
parts to stop. Disconnect the wire from
the spark plug and keep it away from the
plug to prevent someone from accidentally
starting the engine.
• Remove an obstruction from the discharge
chute; refer to
Clearing a Clogged
Discharge Chute (page 14) . Use the
snow-cleanout tool ( Figure 15 ), not your
hands, to remove an obstruction from the
discharge chute.
• Stay behind the handles and away from
the discharge opening while operating the
machine.
• Keep your face, hands, feet, and any other
part of your body or clothing away from
concealed, moving, or rotating parts.
WARNING
The impeller can throw stones, toys, and other
foreign objects and cause serious personal
injury to you or bystanders.
• Keep the area to be cleared free of all
objects that the auger could pick up and
throw.
• Keep all children and pets away from the
area of operation.
•
Always set the throttle to the F
AST
position when
throwing snow.
•
If the engine slows down under a load or the
wheels slip, shift the machine into a lower gear.
•
If the front of the machine rides up, shift the
machine into a lower gear. If the front continues to
ride up, lift up on the handles.
