OPERATING TIPS
•
Keep children and pets away from the operating area.
•
Keep the area to be cleared free of stones, toys, or other foreign objects that the impeller
can throw. Such items may be covered by a snowfall and go unnoticed. If the snowthrower
strikes an obstruction or a foreign object during operation, stop the snowthrower, unplug
the extension cord, remove the obstruction, and inspect the snowthrower for damage.
•
Do not force the chute deflector too far forward so that a gap appears between the
discharge chute and the chute deflector.
•
Begin removing snow near the electrical outlet, and work outward. Work back and forth,
and not away from or towards the outlet.
•
When turning at the end of a swath, step over the cord, and then turn the snowthrower.
•
Overlap each swath, and discharge the snow in the same direction of the wind whenever
possible.
•
Shave down large banks of snow by placing the snowthrower on the bank. Allow the
weight of the snowthrower to shave down the bank in a back-and-forth motion.
•
Keep the extension cord clear of obstructions, sharp objects, and all moving parts. Do not
pull sharply on the cord or abuse it in any manner. Inspect the extension cord on a regular
basis for damage that may result in an electric shock. If the extension cord becomes
damaged in any way, replace it immediately.
•
Some controls and moving parts may freeze in certain cold and snowy weather conditions.
If any of the controls become hard to operate, stop the motor, disconnect the extension
cord, and inspect the snowthrower for frozen parts.
•
Do not use excessive force when trying to operate frozen controls. Free all of the controls
and moving parts before using the snowthrower.
•
After clearing the snow, allow the motor to run for a few minutes so that the ice doesn’t
freeze any moving parts. Then shut off the motor, wait for all moving parts to come to a
complete stop, and wipe the ice and snow off the snowthrower. Rotate the discharge chute
several times in order to remove the snow from the discharge chute.
•
Disconnect the extension cord when storing the snowthrower.
WARNING: If the snowthrower hits a foreign object while
it is in use, the object could be thrown in the direction of
the operator or a bystander. Thrown objects could cause
serious personal injury. Keep the area to be cleared free
of all foreign objects that may be picked up and thrown by
the impeller.
