If the snowthrower does not propel itself forward on
slippery surfaces or in heavy snow, push forward on the
handle, but allow the snowthrower to work at its own
pace.
•
In snowy and cold conditions, some controls and
moving parts may freeze. Do not use excessive force
when trying to operate frozen controls. If you have
difficulty operating any control or part, start the engine
and let it run for a few minutes.
•
•
•
Overlap each swath to ensure complete snow removal.
Discharge the snow downwind whenever possible.
•
•
After clearing the snow, let the engine run for a few
minutes to prevent moving parts from freezing. Shut off
the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove all ice and snow from the snowthrower.
Do not attempt to clear snow from a crushed-rock or
gravel surface. This product is intended for use only on
paved surfaces.
With the engine off, pull the recoil starter handle several
times to prevent the recoil starter from freezing up.
