WARNING! Keep the area of operation free from foreign objects that can be thrown by the
auger and/or impeller blades. Perform a thorough inspection of the area since some objects
may be hidden from view by surrounding snow. If the Snow Thrower hits an obstruction or
picks up a foreign object during use, stop the Snow Thrower, remove the obstruction, and
inspect it for damage. Repair or replace any damaged parts before restarting and operating you
Snow Thrower.
• Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the area of operation. Be aware that the
normal noise of the Snow Thrower when turned on may make it difficult for you to hear
approaching people.
• Start your clearing path by throwing snow in a back and forth motion. To clear in the
opposite direction, stop your Snow Thrower and pivot it on its wheels to face the opposite
direction. Make sure to overlap clearing paths.
• Determine the direction of the wind. If possible, move in the same direction as the wind
so that the snow is not thrown against the wind, back into your face and on the just
cleared path.
WARNING! DO NOT USE YOUR HANDS TO UNCLOG CHUTE. Stop the motor before
removing debris. Use the supplied clean out tool to unclog the chute. Do not walk in front of your
running Snow Thrower. Do not direct discharged snow towards bystanders.
• Do not apply additional man-made load to the engine since this may damage the engine.
• Some parts of your Snow Thrower may freeze under extreme temperature conditions. Do
not attempt to operate your Snow Thrower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while your
Snow Thrower is in use, stop your Snow Thrower and inspect it for frozen parts. Thaw all
parts before restarting and operating your Snow Thrower. Never force parts or controls
that have frozen. Never use an open flame of any sort to thaw frozen parts.
Pre-Operation Inspection - IMPORTANT!!!
Before using your Snow Thrower for the first time, check the following:
• Have you read and followed all setup and operation procedures for the engine as
outlined in the ENGINE manual?
• Has the engine been filled with oil and gasoline to the proper level?
• Are all snow thrower components properly attached and assembled?
• Are there any broken or damaged parts?
• Are all fasteners tight?
• Are the tires inflated to the proper pressure?
