Engage choke by rotating lever to CLOSED position
whenever you are starting a cold engine. As engine
warms up, gradually rotate the choke to the OPEN
position.
When the snow thrower is on a level surface the
wheels, scraper blade, and auger should all contact
the surface. If the scraper blade is adjusted too high,
snow may blow under the housing. If the scraper
blade wears out excessively, or the snow thrower
does not self-propel, the scraper blade may be too low
and needs to be adjusted.
On new snow throwers with a new scraper blade
installed, the auger may be slightly off the ground.
Follow these steps to adjust the scraper blade:
1. Run the snow thrower until the fuel tank is empty.
2. Pull the recoil starter handle until resistance is felt.
Then tip the snow thrower back until it rest on the
handle.
3. Loosen the four ange lock nuts and carriage
screws which secure the scraper blade to housing.
Move the scraper blade to the desired position and
retighten the nuts and screws securely.
4. Tip the snow thrower back to the operating
position and pull the starter handle a few times to
see if it is difcult to pull.
5. If the starter is difcult to pull, remove the spark
plug and pull the handle several times to ensure
that any oil trapped in the head is removed.
6. Inspect the spark plug. If it is wet, clean off any oil
before re-installing.
Press the primer to pump additional fuel from the
carburetor to the cylinder for improved cold weather
starting.
Firmly push in the primer with your thumb, holding
the primer in for a second before releasing it each
time.
Remove your glove when you push in the primer so
that air can not escape from the primer hole.
The recoil starter is on the back side of the engine.
Pull the recoil starter handle to start the engine.
Insert the safety ignition key for engine to start and
run. To stop the engine, remove the key.
Oil may come out of the spark plug hole when it is
removed and the starter handle is pulled.
