WARNING
This unit is a “two-stage” snowthrower.
To avoid serious injury, do not put your hands
into the auger housing or discharge chute. If
auger stalls or chute becomes plugged, use the
following procedure to remove objects or clear
the chute:
The first stage is the auger, which feeds the snow
back into the impeller housing. The second stage
is the impeller, which throws the snow out the
discharge chute. If bodily contact is made with
the auger or impeller when they are rotating,
severe personal injury will occur.
1.
Release both the Drive and Auger Control levers.
2. Shut off the engine.

5. Disconnect spark plug wire.
6. Use a narrow board to remove foreign objects
and clear the chute or auger. Never put your
hands into the auger or discharge chute.
Remove the Engine Key.
Wait for moving parts to stop.
To avoid injury, keep others and yourself away
from the auger and the discharge chute whenever
the engine is running. Read and follow all of the
safety rules and warnings in this manual.
