Operating Tips
WARNING
The auger can throw stones, toys, and other foreign
objects and cause serious personal injury to the
operator or to bystanders.
•
Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects
that the rotor blades could pick up and throw.
•
Keep all children and pets away from the area
of operation.
•
Remove the snow as soon as possible after it falls.
•
If the machine does not propel itself forward on slippery
surfaces or in heavy snow, push forward on the handle,
but allow the machine to work at its own pace.
•
Overlap each swath to ensure complete snow removal.
•
Discharge the snow downwind whenever possible.
After Operation
Safety
•
Never store the machine with fuel in the fuel tank inside a
building where ignition sources are present, such as hot
water heaters, space heaters, or clothes dryers. Allow the
engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
•
When storing the machine for more than 30 days, refer to
the Storage section for important details.
Preventing Freeze-up after Use
•
Let the engine run for a few minutes to prevent moving
parts from freezing. Stop the engine, wait for all moving
parts to stop, and remove ice and snow from the machine.
•
Clean off any snow and ice from the base of the chute.
•
Rotate the discharge chute left and right to free it from
any ice buildup.
•
With the ignition key in the Off position, pull the recoil
starter handle several times or connect the electrical cord
to a power source and the machine and push the electric
start button once to prevent the recoil starter and/or the
electric starter from freezing up.
•
In snowy and cold conditions, some controls and moving
parts may freeze. Do not use excessive force when
trying to operate frozen controls. If you have difficulty
operating any control or part, start the engine and let it
run for a few minutes.
•
Do not use the chute control to attempt to move a frozen
discharge chute. Hold down the blue knob and use your
hands to rotate the chute.
•
Transporting the machine in an open trailer or vehicle can
cause the controls or discharge chute to freeze.
