Poulan Pro XT8527ES 422071 Snow Blower Owners Manual

TO REMOVE WHEELS (See Fig. 22)
Remove the klik pin and remove wheel from axle.
NOTE: To seal punctures or prevent flat tires due to slow
leaks, tire sealant may be purchased from your local parts
dealer. Tire sealant also prevents tire dry rot and corrosion.
IMPORTANT: When installing wheel, be sure to use the in-
nermost hole in axle and the wheel hub hole. To disengage
drive system from the wheels (for pushing or transporting
the snow  thrower), remove klik  pin from  wheel hub and
insert pin into the outermost hole in axle only.
ENGINE
See engine manual.
CARBURETOR
Your  carburetor is  not  adjustable.  Engine  performance
should not be affected at altitudes up to 7,000 feet (2,134
meters). If your engine  does not operate properly due  to
suspected carburetor  problems, take your snow  thrower
to a qualified service center.

ENGINE SPEED
Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set
for proper engine speed. Overspeeding the engine above
the factory high speed setting can be  dangerous and will
void the warranty.  If you think  the engine-governed high
speed needs adjusting, contact a qualified service center,
which has proper equipment and experience to make any
necessary adjustments.

STORAGE
Immediately  prepare your  snow  thrower  for storage  at
the end of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30
days or more.
Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and letting
it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty.
Never use  engine or  carburetor cleaner products  in
the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
WARNING:   Never   store   the   snow
throwerwithgasolineinthetankinside
a building where fumes may  reach an
open flame, spark or pilot light as on a
furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or
gasappliance. Allowtheenginetocool
before storing in any enclosure.
Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE:  Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in min-
imizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.
Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container.
Always follow the  mix ratio found on stabilizer  container.
Run engine at  least 10 minutes after adding  stabilizer to
allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor.  Do not empty
the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

Do not store gasoline from one season to another.
Replace your gasoline  can if your  can starts to rust.
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.
ENGINE
See engine manual.
If possible, store your snow thrower indoors and cover
it to protect it from dust and dirt.
Cover your  snow  thrower with  a suitable  protective
cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic.
Plastic cannot breathe, which allows condensation to
form and will cause your snow thrower to rust.
FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from
forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor,
fuel hose,  or tank during  storage. Also, alcohol  blended
fuels (called  gasohol or  using ethanol or  methanol) can
attract moisture which leads  to separation and formation
of acids during  storage. Acidic gas can  damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
IMPORTANT: Never cover snow thrower while engine/ex-
haust area is still warm.
