coil starter handle (10) three or four times with
a continuous full arm stroke. This will produce a
loud clattering sound that is not harmful to the
engine or starter.
NOTE: In temperatures below 0° F (-18° C), allow
the engine to warm up for several minutes before
blowing snow.
2.
Stop the engine. Wipe all snow and moisture
from the carburetor cover, control levers, and
cables. Also move the choke control (11) and
recoil starter handle (10) several times.
WARNING: Never run the engine indoors
or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless and colorless deadly gas. Keep hands,
feet, hair, and loose clothing away from any mov-
ing parts located on the engine or the snow throw-
er. The temperature of muffler and nearby areas
may exceed 150° F (65° C). Avoid these areas.
HOW CLEAR A CLOGGED DISCHARGE CHUTE
WARNING: Hand contact with the rotating
impeller inside the discharge chute is the
most common cause of injury associated with
snow blowing. Never use your hand to clean out
the discharge chute.
HOW TO START A WARM ENGINE
To Clear The Chute:
•
•
Shut off the engine
Wait 10 seconds to be sure that the impeller blades
have stop rotating.
(Figure 3) If an engine has been running and is
still warm, leave the choke control (11) in the OFF
position and do not push the primer button (7). If
the engine fails to start, follow the instructions “How
To Start A Cold Engine.”

Release the auger drive lever.
Pull out or remove the safety/ignition key.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
Do not place your hands in the auger or dis-
charge chute. Use a clean-out tool to remove

HOW TO START A WARM ENGINE WITH A
FROZEN STARTER
If the electric starter is frozen and will not turn
the engine, follow the instructions below.
SNOW THROWING TIPS
1.
2.
(Figure 3) Pull out the recoil starter handle (10)
as far as possible.
1.
This snow thrower will propel itself forward when
the handle is raised enough to cause the auger
blades to contact the ground. The auger should
stop when auger control bar is released. If it does
not stop, see “How To Adjust The Auger Control
Cable” in the Maintenance section.
Quickly release the recoil starter handle (10)
to snap back against the recoil starter.
If the engine still fails to start, repeat the two pre-
vious steps until the engine starts. Then, continue
with the directions “How To Start A Cold Engine.”
2. Most efficient snow throwing is accomplished when
the snow if removed immediately after it falls.
To help prevent the possible freeze-up of the
recoil starter and of the engine controls, proceed
as follows after each snow removal job.

Lawn and Garden readers have rated Murray Walk Behind 1695538 5.25TP 21-Inch Single Stage Snow Blower Owners Manual 4.0 out of 4.0 based on 2 product reviews. I wasn’t looking for a massive snow blower. This one works really well for the size of my driveway in lighter snow conditions
Picked up used Murray snowblower last week for light jobs. Perfect size, just a little old (2007). Was looking for info re:specs for minor maintenance.
