snow thrower), engage the auger control for a few
seconds to clear any remaining snow or ice from the
chute assembly before continuing to clear snow.

the snow throwing process. If the auger control is en-
gaged simultaneously with the drive control, the operator
can release the auger control (on the left handle) and
the augers will remain engaged. Release both controls to
stop the augers and wheel drive.

assembly or auger housing.

in enclosed, poorly
ventilated areas. En-
