Simplicity SNO-AWAY User Manual

Fig. 7
The roller wheels on each side of the rotor housing are
adjustable either up or down to suit the surface over
which the plow is to be operated. For a smooth sur¬
face, loosen the nuts and set the shoes so that the
lower edge of the rotor housing rides near the surface.
For use over an uneven or rough surface, adjust the
shoes for maximum lift.
When using the plow, adjust the discharge spout so
that the snow will be thrown with the wind and never
into the wind. Throwing snow into the wind is apt to
be a source of discomfort to the operator. To alter
the direction of discharge, rotate the spout by means
of the spout adjusting handle. The angle of discharge
may be adjusted by loosening the 2 wing nuts on the
discharge spout extension and raising or lowering the
extension to give the desired angle. Retighten the
nuts to hold extension in desired position.
Steel Lug wheels are available as an accessory for
use under conditions where the standard wheels do not
provide required traction. Order these Steel Lug
wheels by Product Number 990222.
When operating the plow throughheavy drifts of snow,
depress the handles and raise the rotor housing while
taking the first pass through the drift. Then back off
and lower the rotor housing and go through again.
After the first path through the drift has been opened,
it may be convenient to use only a portion of the width
of the plow on successive passes. Naturally, effic¬
ient plowing methods will vary from one snowfall to
another and from location to location. The operator
will soon learn to Judge which methods produce the
best results.
When transporting the plow from one location to an¬
other, disengage the rotor clutch for safety.
After completion of the plowing operation, allow the
rotor to operate for about 5 minutes to dry itself and
prevent the formation of ice. When possible, store
the snow plow in a cold area so that clinging snow
will not melt and refreeze into ice.
-Caution-
CAUTION: It is the operators obligation to avoid any
foreign material or obstructions in the snow. Bear in
mind that pieces of pipe, rocks, lumber, wire, rags,
etc., may jam the rotor and damage it or the drive
belts. Be prepared to disengage the rotor clutch
quickly if that should happen. If rotor should jam on
alien material, be sure to shut off the engine before
attempting to remove the obstruction.
