activity. Never assume that the children will remain
where you last saw them.

plan where snow is to be blown. Be prepared to
release auger/impeller clutch or to change
discharge chute direction quickly to discharge

doorways to avoid property damage or personal
injury from hurled objects

receptacles in good condition and with sufficient
capacity to carry the current to the machine if
equipped with electric starting motors.

and vapors are explosive. Store only in an
approved fuel container. Never remove fuel cap
or add fuel with the engine running. Add fuel
outdoors only with the engine stopped and cool.
