ELECTRICAL INFORMATION (See Figure 1)
W A R N I N G
To avoid electrical hazards, re hazards, or damage to the tool, use proper circuit protection. The
Snow Thrower is wired at the factory for 120 V operation. Connect to a 120 V, 15 A circuit and use
a 15 A time delayed fuse or circuit breaker. To avoid shock or re when the power cord is worn, cut,
or damaged in any way, replace it immediately.
This Snow Thrower has a 3-prong plug that is intended for use on a circuit that has a receptacle
like the one illustrated in Fig. 1.
Do not modify the power cord plug. If it does not match the electrical outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualied electrician.
W A R N I N G
To avoid injury, when servicing the Snow Thrower, use only identical replacement parts.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least
resistance for electrical current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with
an electric cord that has a POLARIZED plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not t the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
EXTENSION CORD
W A R N I N G
In order to reduce the risk of electric shock when operating this Snow Thrower, use only a CSA
listed extension cord that is approved for outdoor use, such as Type SJTW, 16AWG, and that has a
lower temperature rating of -40° F (-40° C).
