OPERATION
TO START ENGINE
Be sure fuel shut-off valve is in the OPEN position.
Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes. Engine will
•
not develop full power until it has reached normal operat-
ing temperature.
Your snow thrower engine is equipped with both a 120 Volt
A.C. electric starter and a recoil starter. The electric starter
is equipped with a three-wire power cord and plug and is
designed to operate on 120 Volt A.C. household current.
WARM START - RECOIL STARTER
Follow the steps above, keeping the choke in the OFF
position. DO NOT push the primer.
•
Be sure your house is a 120 Volt A.C. three-wire
grounded system. If you are uncertain, consult a li-
censed electrician.
BEFORE STOPPING
Run the engine for a few minutes to help dry off any mois-
ture on the engine.
WARNING: Do not use the electric
starter if your house is not a 120 Volt
A.C.three-wiregroundedsystem. Seri-
ous personal injury or damage to your
snow thrower could result.
IF RECOIL STARTER HAS FROZEN
If the recoil starter has frozen and will not turn the engine,
proceed as follows:
1.
Grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly pull as much
rope out of the starter as possible.
COLD START - ELECTRIC STARTER
2.
Release the recoil starter handle and let it snap back
against the starter.

Keep the extra safety ignition key in a safe place.
Place throttle control in FAST position.
Rotate choke control to FULL position.
Connect the power cord to the engine.
Plug the other end of the power cord into a three-hole
grounded 120 Volt A.C. receptacle.
Push the primer three (3) times.
If the engine still fails to start, repeat the above steps or
use the electric starter.

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.
6.
7.
Push starter button until engine starts.
IMPORTANT: Do not crank engine more than five continu-
ous seconds between each time you try to start. Wait 5 to
10
8.
seconds between each attempt.
When the engine starts, release the starter button and
slowly move the choke control to the “OFF” position.
•
Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all
snow will be removed.
9.
Disconnect the power cord from the receptacle first,
then from the engine.
•
•
Throw snow downwind whenever possible.
Adjust the skid plates to proper height for current snow
conditions. See “TO ADJUST SKID PLATES” in this
section of this manual.
For extremely heavy snow, reduce the width of snow
removal by overlapping previous path and moving
slowly.
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.
