OPERATION
The operation of any snow thrower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the
eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye
shields while operating the snow thrower.
We recommend standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask for over your
glasses.
●
To move the snow thrower backward, move the
speed shifter lever into first or second reverse and
engage the traction clutch lever (left hand).

TO STOP YOUR SNOW THROWER
●
To stop throwing snow, release the auger clutch

The left hand wheel is secured to the axle with a klick
pin (See III 13). This unit was shipped with this klick
pin in the locked (through wheel hole) position.

For ease of maneuverability in light snow conditions,
disconnect the klick pin from the wheel locked posi-
tion and push into the single wheel drive (unlocked
axle hole only) position (See III 14).
To stop the engine, push the throttle control lever to
off and pull out the ignition key (See III 11).
TO MOVE FORWARD AND
BACKWARD
●
Make sure that the klick pin is in the single wheel
drive position of the axle only and not through the
locked position.
●
To shift, release the traction clutch lever and move
the speed shifter lever to the speed you desire.
Ground speed is determined by snow conditions.
Select the speed you desire by moving the speed
shifter lever into the appropriate colored area on the
control panel.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
●
If the snow thrower must be moved without the aid of
the engine, it is easier to pull the snow thrower by the
handles rather than pushing.
Red - Wet, Heavy, Slushy, Extra Deep
Amber - Moderate
● Before you service or start the engine, familiarize
yourself with the snow thrower. Be sure you under-
stand the function and location of all controls.
White - Very Light
Green - Transport only
NOTE: Check tension of clutch cables before starting the
engine. (See To Adjust The Control Cables paragraph
in the Service & Adjustments section of this manual).
●
●
Engage the traction clutch lever (See III 12, left
hand). As the snow thrower starts to move, main-
tain a firm hold on the handles, and guide the snow
thrower along the clearing path. Do not attempt to
push the snow thrower.
● Be sure that all fasteners are tight.
●
Make sure the height adjust skids are properly ad-
justed (See To Adjust Skid Height paragraph in
