#56663 SNOW THROWER OPERATOR’S MANUAL 13
PLOWING THE SNOW
WARNING: Keep the area of operation free of foreign objects that can become thrown
by the rotor 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, disconnect the extension cord,
remove the obstruction, and inspect the unit for damage. Repair or replace any damaged parts
before restarting and operating the unit.
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.
When moving the Snow Thrower, use the wheels on one side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the
Snow Thrower on this pivot point to move it forward or backward.
Start your clearing path near the electrical outlet and work outward, throwing snow in a back and
forth motion. To clear in the opposite direction, step over the cord and pivot the Snow Thrower
on its wheels. Make sure to overlap clearing paths.
Note the wind direction. 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.
While moving the Snow Thrower, move within the range that the cable can reach.
DO NOT USE HANDS TO UNCLOG CHUTE. Stop motor before removing debris.
Do not walk in front of running Snow Thrower. Do not direct discharged snow towards
bystanders.
Do not push the Snow Thrower with excessive force. You should push the Snow Thrower gently
and evenly in accordance with the unit’s throw rate.
Do not apply additional man-made load to the snow thrower since this may damage the snow
thrower.
Some parts of the Snow Thrower may freeze under extreme temperature conditions. Do not
attempt to operate the Snow Thrower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while the Snow
Thrower is in use, stop the Snow Thrower, unplug the extension cord, and inspect it for frozen
parts. Thaw all parts before restarting and operating the Snow Thrower. Never force parts or
controls that have frozen. Never use an open flame of any sort to thaw frozen parts.
WORKING ON PEBBLES, GRAVEL, OR UNPAVED SURFACES. To avoid throwing loose
surface material along with the snow, push down on the handle to raise the scraper at the base of
the unit above the pebbles or gravel.
