Electric Starter (If Equipped)
1.
Determine that your home’s wiring is a three-wire
grounded system. Ask a licensed electrician if you are
not certain.
WARNING: The optional electric starter
is equipped with a grounded three-wire
power cord and plug, and is designed
to operate on 120 volt AC household
current. It must be used with a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle at all
times to avoid the possibility of electric
shock. Follow all instructions carefully
prior to operating the electric starter.
To Engage Drive
1.
With the engine running near top speed, move
shift lever to one of six FORWARD positions or two
REVERSE positions. Select a speed appropriate for
the snow conditions that exist. Do not shift speeds
while the drive is engaged.
2. Squeeze drive control against the right handle and
the snow thrower will move. Release it and the drive
motion will stop.
If your home’s wir-
ing system is not a
three-wire grounded
system, do not use
this electric starter
under any conditions.
If you have a grounded three-prong receptacle, proceed
as follows:
