#56663 SNOW THROWER OPERATOR’S MANUAL 14
CHANGING SNOW DISCHARGE CHUTE’S DIRECTION
1. Never direct the snow discharge chute at the operator, bystanders, vehicles or nearby
windows. The discharged snow and foreign objects accidentally picked up by the Snow
Thrower can cause serious damage and bodily injury. Always point the discharge chute in the
opposite direction from potentially hazards.
2. The discharge chute can be adjusted 180º by rotating the chute crank. Rotate the chute
control crank clockwise to move the discharge chute to the left; counterclockwise to move
the chute to the right.
3. The chute deflector on the top of the discharge chute controls the height of the snow stream.
Loosen both chute deflector knobs to raise or lower the deflector to the desired height of
snow you wish to throw. Tighten the knobs to secure the deflector.
Note: Do not over tighten the chute deflector knobs.
WARNING: Make sure that the chute deflector snaps and locks completely onto the
discharge chute. An opening between the discharge chute and the chute deflector may
allow foreign objects to be picked up by the Snow Thrower and thrown in the direction
of the operator causing serious bodily injury. Do not advance the chute deflector too far forward
causing an opening to appear between the deflector and discharge chute. Do not over tighten the
knobs on the chute deflector.
