6. When cleaning, repairing or inspecting the snow
thrower,stoptheengineandmakecertainthecollector/
impellerandallmovingpartshavestopped.Disconnect
the spark plug wire and keep the wire away from the
plug to prevent someone from accidentally starting the
engine.
7. Do not run the engine indoors, except when starting
the engine and for transporting the snow thrower in or
out of the building. Open the outside doors; exhaust
fumes are dangerous.
16. Never touch a hot engine or muffler.
Clearing a Clogged Discharge Chute
Handcontactwiththerotatingimpellerinsidethedischarge
chute is the most common cause of injury associated with
snow throwers. Never use your hand to clean out the dis-
charge chute. To clear the chute:
1. SHUT THE ENGINE OFF!
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the impeller blades have
stopped rotating.
8. Exercise extreme caution when operating on slopes.
3. Always use a clean-out tool, not your hands.
9. Neveroperatethesnowthrowerwithoutproperguards,
and other safety protective devices in place and work-
ing.
Maintenance and Storage
1. Check shear bolts and other bolts at frequent intervals
for proper tightness to be sure the equipment is in safe
working condition.
10. Never direct the discharge toward people or areas
where property damage can occur. Keep children and
others away.
2. 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.
3. Always refer to operator’s manual for important details
if the snow thrower is to be stored for an extended
period.
4. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as
necessary.
5. Run the machine a few minutes after throwing snow
to prevent freeze-up of the collector/impeller.
11. Do not overload the machine capacity by attempting
to clear snow at too fast a rate.
12. Never operate the machine at high transport speeds
on slippery surfaces. Look behind and use care when
operating in reverse.
13. Disengage power to the collector/impeller when snow
thrower is transported or not in use.
14. Use only attachments and accessories approved by
the manufacturer of the snow thrower (such as wheel
weights, counterweights, or cabs).
15. Never operate the snow thrower without good visibility
or light. Always be sure of your footing, and keep a
firm hold on the handles. Walk; never run.

USING THE CLEAN-OUT TOOL (See Fig. 16)
In certain snow conditions, the discharge chute may be-
come clogged with ice and snow. Use the clean-out tool to
dislodge this blockage.
•
Slower speeds are for heavier snow and faster speeds
are for light snow and transporting the snow thrower. It
is recommended that you use a slower speed until you
are familiar with the operation of the snow thrower.
When cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make
certain all controls are disengaged and the
auger/impeller and all moving parts have
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and
keep the wire away from the spark plug to pre-
vent accidental starting.
NOTE: When both traction drive and auger control levers
are engaged, the traction drive control lever will lock the
auger control lever in the engaged position. This will allow
you to release your right hand from the handle and adjust
the discharge chute direction without interrupting the snow

SNOW THROWING TIPS
•
•
•
•
Always operate the snow thrower with the engine at
full throttle. Full throttle offers the best performance.
Goslowerindeep,freezingorheavywetsnow.Usethe
drive speed control, NOT the throttle, to adjust speed.
It is easier and more efficient to remove snow imme-
diately after it falls.
The best time to remove snow is the early morning. At
this time the snow is usually dry and has not been ex-
posed to the direct sun and warming temperatures.
7. Push starter button until engine starts.
IMPORTANT: Do not crank engine more than five con-
tinuous seconds between each time you try to start. Wait
5 to 10 seconds between each attempt.
•
Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all
snow will be removed.
8. When the engine starts, release the starter button and
slowly move the choke control to the “OFF” position.
•
•
Throw snow downwind whenever possible.
9. Disconnect the power cord from the receptacle first,
then from the engine.
Adjust the skid plates to proper height for current snow
conditions. See “TO ADJUST SKID PLATES” in this
section of this manual.
Forextremelyheavysnow,reducethewidthofsnowre-
movalbyoverlappingpreviouspathandmovingslowly.
Keep engine clean and clear of snow during use. This
will help air flow and extend engine life.
Aftersnow-throwingiscompleted,allowenginetorunfor
a few minutes to melt snow and ice off the engine.
Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes. Engine will
not develop full power until it has reached normal operat-
ing temperature.

•
•
WARM START - ELECTRIC STARTER
Follow the steps above, keeping the choke control in the
“OFF” position.
COLD START - RECOIL STARTER
Clean the entire snow thrower thoroughly after each
use and wipe dry so it is ready for next use.
1. Insert safety ignition key (packed separately in parts
bag)intoignitionslotuntilitclicks. DONOTturnthekey.
Keep the extra safety ignition key in a safe place.
2. Place throttle control in “FAST” position.
3. Rotate choke control to “FULL” position.

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from
forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor,
fuel hose, or tank during storage. Alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of
an engine while in storage.
