angle, away from operator and bystanders, before
starting engine.

If Impeller is frozen, (cannot pull Starter Handle)
move unit to a heated area and thaw to prevent

Scraper Blade
The scraper blade allows the back of the housing to
keep better contact with the surface being cleared. It
also prevents damage to the housing from normal
wear.
2. Check Function of Clutches
If clutches do not engage or disengage properly, adjust
or repair before operation (see Check Clutch Operation
on page 15).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow Scraper Blade to wear
too far or Auger/Impeller housing will become
damaged.

Check and adjust Runners (see Runners on page 17).
Allow 1/8 in. (3 mm) between scraper blade and hard,
smooth surface(s). Allow 1-1/4 in. (30 mm) between
scraper blade and uneven or gravel surfaces.
Runners
The runners control the distance between the scraper
blade and the ground. Adjust runners equally to keep
blade level with the ground. Refer to Pre-Start on
page 13 for recommended settings.
4. Check Engine Fuel & Crankcase Oil
WARNING: AVOID INJURY. Read and
understand the entire Safety section before
proceeding.
Check and add fuel if required. Check that the engine
crankcase oil is full using dipstick. Refer to Engine
Manual for detailed instructions.
