shift lever to one of six FORWARD positions or two
REVERSE positions. Select a speed appropriate for
the snow conditions that exist.
Perform the following test before operating your snow
thrower for the first time and at the start of each winter.
Check the adjustment of the auger control as follows:
1. When the auger control is released and in the
disengaged “up” position, the cable should have very
little slack. It should NOT be tight.

control to move, release to stop. Do not shift speeds
while the drive is engaged.
6. Confirm that the auger has completely stopped
rotating and shows NO signs of motion. If the auger
shows ANY signs of rotating, immediately return to
the operator’s position and shut off the engine. Wait
for ALL moving parts to stop before re-adjusting the
auger control.

can turn the chute control without interrupting the snow
throwing process.
WARNING
The muffler, engine
and surrounding areas
become hot and can cause
a burn. Do not touch.
3. Release the auger control; the interlock mechanism
should keep the auger control engaged until the drive
control is released.
7. To readjust the control cable, loosen the upper hex
nut on the auger cable bracket.
4. Release the drive control to stop both the augers and
the wheel drive. To stop the auger, both levers must
be released.
8. Position the bracket upward to provide more slack (or
downward to increase cable tension). See Figure 13.

When storing the snow thrower in an unventilated or
metal storage shed, care should be taken to rustproof
the equipment. Using a light oil or silicone, coat the
equipment, especially any chains, springs, bearings
and cables.
Off-Season
Storage
Short-Term Storage
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts of the engine such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during short-term
storage (15-30 days). To prevent this, treat the fuel
system using a fuel stabalizer.
•
•
•
Remove all dirt from exterior of engine and equipment.
Follow lubrication recommendations.
Store equipment in a clean, dry area.
Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL™ or ULTRA-FRESH™)
is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation
of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to
gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow
mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at least
10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the
carburetor.
