SECTION 1:  IMPORTANT SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES

WARNING:

 This symbol points out important safety instructions which, if not followed, could endanger 

the personal safety and/or property of yourself and others. Read and follow all instructions in this manual 
before attempting to operate your snow thrower. Failure to comply with these instructions may result in 
personal injury. When you see this symbol, heed its warning.

DANGER:

 

Your snow thrower was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this 

manual. As with any type of power equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can result 
in serious injury. If you violate any of these rules, you may cause serious injury to yourself or others.

WARNING:

 

The Engine Exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of 

California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Training

Read this operator's manual carefully in its entirety 
before attempting to assemble or operate this 
machine. Be completely familiar with the controls 
and the proper use of this machine before 
operating it. Keep this manual in a safe place for 
future and regular reference and for ordering 
replacement parts.

Never allow children under 14 years old to operate 
a snow thrower. Children 14 years old and over 
should only operate snow thrower under close 
parental supervision. Only persons well 
acquainted with these rules of safe operation 
should be allowed to use your snow thrower.

No one should operate this unit while intoxicated or 
while taking medication that impairs the senses or 
reactions.

Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, 
especially small children and pets.

Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling, 
especially when operating in reverse.

Preparation

Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment 
is to be used and remove all door mats, sleds, 
boards, wires and other foreign objects.

Disengage all clutches and shift into neutral before 
starting engine.

Do not operate equipment without wearing 
adequate winter outer garments. Do not wear 
jewelry, long scarfs or other loose clothing which 
could become entangled in moving parts. Wear 
footwear which will improve footing on slippery 
surfaces.

Before working with gasoline, extinguish all 
cigarettes and other sources of ignition. Check the 
fuel before starting the engine. Gasoline is an 
extremely flammable fuel. Do not fill the gasoline 
tank indoors, while the engine is running, or until 
engine has been allowed to cool at least two 
minutes. Replace gasoline cap securely and wipe 
off any spilled gasoline before starting the engine 
as it may cause a fire or explosion.

Use a grounded three wire plug-in for all units with 
electric drive motors or electric starting motors.

Adjust collector housing height to clear gravel or 
crushed rock surface.

Never attempt to make any adjustments while 
engine is running (except where specifically 
recommended by manufacturer).

Let engine and machine adjust to outdoor 
temperature before starting to clear snow.

Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during 
operation or while performing an adjustment or 
repair, to protect eyes from foreign objects that 
may be thrown from the machine in any direction.

Operation

Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating 
parts. Keep clear of discharge opening and auger 
at all times.

Exercise extreme caution when operating on or 
crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert 
for hidden hazards or traffic. 

After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, 
remove wire from spark plug, and thoroughly 
inspect the snow thrower for any damage. Repair 
the damage before restarting and operating the 
snow thrower.

If the snow thrower should start to vibrate 
abnormally, stop the engine and check 
immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a 
warning of trouble.

Stop engine whenever you leave the operating 
position, before unclogging the collector/impeller 
housing or discharge guide, and making any 
repairs, adjustments, or inspections. Never place 
your hand in the discharge or collector openings. 
Use a stick or wooden broom handle to unclog the 
discharge opening.

Take all possible precautions when leaving the unit 
unattended. Disengage the collector/impeller, shift 
into neutral, stop the engine, and remove the key.

When cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make 
certain collector/impeller and all moving parts have
