CLEARING CLOGS
A clearing tool is included with your snow blower and can be mounted in the clasp on the auger housing for easy
access.
1. Turn the engine OFF and wait for all moving parts (wheels, impeller, auger blades, etc.) to stop moving.
2. Use the clearing tool to clear the clog.
3. Replace the clearing tool in the clasp on the auger housing.
ADJUSTING THE SKID PLATES (FIG. 26)
The skid plate setting controls how far above the ground
the scraper bar operates. When operating on concrete,
asphalt, or other smooth surfaces, adjust the skid plate
so that the bottom of the scraper bar rides along the
ground. When operating on gravel, dirt, crushed rock, or
other uneven surfaces, adjust the skid plate so that the
bottom of the scraper bar rides just above the ground,
to prevent debris from entering the auger. Surfaces with
larger, coarser debris (e.g. larger pieces of gravel) re-
quire a more-raised scraper bar.
NOTE:
The skid plates
are pre-adjusted for smooth surfaces from the factory.
1. Make sure the snow blower is on a smooth, level sur-
face.
2. Place a spacer board on the ground underneath the
scraper bar, between the skid plates (A). The thickness
of the board should be the same as the height you want
to raise the scraper bar to. The skid plates should not
touch the board.
3. Use a wrench to loosen the 2 nuts (B) on each skid
plate. Let each skid plate slide down until it is flat against
the ground.
4. Tighten the nuts and remove the spacer board.
5. Ensure the skid plates are adjusted to the same height
on each side - this will prevent uneven wear.
WARNING!
NEVER use your hands to clear a clog! Only use the clearing tool.
4. Run the auger for a few seconds to clear out any remaining snow or ice.

ADJUSTING THE ENGINE SPEED
For maximum efficacy while snow blowing, we rec-
ommend running the engine at (or near) maximum
throttle. However, if for some reason you need to lower
the engine speed, follow the instructions below.
1. The choke lever is a combination choke/throttle le-
ver. To decrease engine speed, move the choke lever to
the right (past OPEN/RUN). To increase engine speed,
move it back toward OPEN/RUN.
2. The engine speed is at maximum when the choke le-
ver is set to OPEN/RUN.
