While Clearing Snow:
For easy turning when using the snowthrower, squeeze
the Easy Turn

allows the right wheel to continue driving (Figure 25).
Releasing the Easy Turn 7Mlever automatically engages
both drive wheels for full traction.

activate under a heavy load. Activate the lever before
beginning a turn.

For easy turning when pushing the snowthrower, dis-
