AFTER EACH USE
WARNING
Never store the snowthrower in a build¬
ing where gasoline fumes may reach an
open flame, spark or pilot light such as on
a furnace or water heater.
1. Before stopping engine (Tecumseh
models), pull the starter rope twice and
allow to rewind slowly. Then, stop the
engine. This will help prevent freeze-up.
2. See the “To Stop Engine” section in
your engine Owner’s Manual. It de¬
scribes how to prevent engine freeze-up.
3. Always remove the key to prevent
unauthorized use.
4. Clean snow and ice from the snow¬
thrower.
5. If the snowthrower is kept in a cold
shelfter, fill the fuel tank to prevent
condensation. Do not store near sparks
or flame.
