Be sure fuel shut-off valve is in the “OPEN” position.
Go slower in deep, freezing  or heavy wet snow. Use
the drive speed control, NOT the ON / OFF switch, to
adjust speed.
Your snow thrower engine is equipped with a recoil starter.
COLD START
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.

Grasp the recoil starter handle and slowly pull as much
rope out of the starter as possible.

Release the recoil starter handle and let it snap back
against the starter.
If the engine still fails to start, repeat the above steps.
