Chapter 3: Operating the DR SNOW BLOWER
It may be helpful to better familiarize yourself with the features of your SNOW
BLOWER by reviewing Figure 2 in Chapter 2 before beginning the steps outlined
in this chapter.
Starting the PRO-24 Engine (Manual Start)
1. Insert the Key into the Key Slot (Figure 26).
2. Move the Choke Control Lever to the left “choke” position (leave in the
right “Run” position if the engine is already warm).
3. Push and release the Primer Bulb 3 times.
4. Slowly pull the Starter Cord until you feel resistance, then pull quickly
(Figure 27). The Cord will recoil back into position when released.
5. As the engine warms up, slowly adjust the Choke to the right. Wait until the
engine runs smoothly before each Choke adjustment.
6. When the Engine is warmed up and running smoothly, ensure that the
Choke is fully in the right “Run” position.
