Overlap each swath to ensure complete snow removal.
Discharge the snow downwind whenever possible.
Do not overload the snowthrower by clearing snow at
too fast a rate. If the engine slows down, shift the
snowthrower into a lower gear to reduce the forward
speed.
Snowthrowing Tips
Danger
•
•
In wet or slushy conditions, maintain maximum engine
speed, and do not overload the engine to prevent
clogging the discharge chute.
When the snowthrower is in operation, the
impeller and auger can be rotating and cut off or
injure hands and feet.
If the front of the snowthrower tends to ride up, reduce
the forward speed by shifting the snowthrower into a
lower gear. If the front still tends to ride up, lift up on
both handgrips to hold down the front of snowthrower.
•
Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing and
inspecting the snowthrower, and before
unclogging the discharge chute, stop the engine
and wait for all moving parts to stop. Disconnect
the wire from the spark plug and keep it away
from the plug to prevent someone from
accidentally starting the engine.
Use a stick, not your hands, to remove an
obstruction from the discharge chute.
Stay behind the handles and away from the
discharge opening while operating the
snowthrower.
•
•
If the wheels slip, shift the snowthrower into a lower
gear to reduce the forward speed.
After clearing the snow, let the engine run for a few
minutes to prevent moving parts from freezing. Engage
the auger/impeller to clear any remaining snow from
inside the housing. Shut off the engine, wait for all
moving parts to stop, and remove all ice and snow from
the snowthrower.
•
•
•
Keep face, hands, feet, and any other part of
your body or clothing away from concealed,
moving, or rotating parts.
•
•
With the engine shut off, pull the recoil starter handle
several times to prevent the recoil starter from freezing
up.
When you are not using the snowthrower, close the fuel
shutoff valve and remove the key.
Warning
The auger/impeller may pick up and throw stones,
toys, and other foreign objects, causing serious
personal injury to the operator or to bystanders.
•
Keep the area to be cleared free of all objects
that could be picked up and thrown by the
auger/impeller.
•
Keep all children and pets away from area of
operation.
•
Adjust the skids to match the type of surface being
cleaned. Refer to Adjusting the Skids and the Scraper
on page 20.
