Unclogging the Discharge
Chute
If the auger/impeller is running but there is no snow
coming out of the discharge chute, the discharge chute
may be clogged.
•
To unclog the discharge chute, stay in the operating
position and release the left hand (traction) lever.
While running the auger/impeller, push down on
the handles to raise the front of the snowthrower
a few inches (centimeters) off the pavement. Then
lift the handles quickly to bump the front of the
snowthrower on the pavement. Repeat if necessary
until a stream of snow comes out the discharge chute.
•
If you cannot unclog the discharge chute by bumping
the front of the snowthrower, stop the engine, wait
for all moving parts to stop, and use the snow
cleanout tool; never use your hand.

If the chute does not move, refer to Adjusting the
Discharge Chute Latch.
Important: Unclogging the discharge chute by
bumping the front of the snowthrower on the
pavement may cause the skids to move. Adjust
the skids and tighten the skid bolts securely.
If the chute does not turn as far to the left as it does
to the right, ensure that the cable is routed to the
inside of the handles. Refer to Installing the Upper
Handle.
Preventing Freeze-up
•
If the chute does not lock into place when you release
the trigger cap, refer to Adjusting the Discharge
Chute Latch.
•
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.
Moving the Chute Deflector
Hold the blue trigger cap down and move the Quick
Stick forward to lower the chute deflector; move it
rearward to raise the chute deflector (Figure 31).
•
After using the snowthrower, 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. Rotate the Quick
Stick to prevent it from freezing. Stop the engine,
wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove all ice
and snow from the snowthrower.
•
With the engine off, pull the recoil starter handle
several times and push the electric-starter button
once to prevent the recoil and electric starters from
freezing up.
