HOW TO CLEAR
A CLOGGED DISCHARGE CHUTE
A
ARNING:
Hand
contact
with the rotating impeller in-
side the discharge
chute is
the most common cause of injury as-
sociated with snow throwers.
Never
use your hand to clean out the dis-
charge chute.
To Clear The Chute:
•
SHUT OFF THE ENGINE!
•
Wait 10 seconds to be sure that the
impeller blades have stopped ro-
tating.
•
Always use a clean-out
tool, not
your hands.
A clean-out tool is attached to either
the handle or the top of the auger hous-
ing (see Figure 17). Use the clean-out
tool to remove snow from the auger
housing.
•
Release the auger drive lever.
•
Pull out the safety key.
•
Disconnect spark plug wire.
•
Do not place your hands in the au-
ger or discharge chute. Use a
clean-out tool to remove snow or
debris.
A
ARNING: Blockage must
be cleared only after shut-
ting off the snow thrower
and only with a clean-out tool, not
by hand.
SNOW
THROWING
TIPS
1.
For maximum
snow
thrower
efficien-
cy in removing
snow,
adjust
ground
speed.
Go slower
in deep,
freezing
or wet snow.
If the wheels
slips, re-
duce forward
speed.
2.
Most efficient
snow throwing
is ac-
complished
when the snow
is re-
moved
immediately
after
if falls.
3.
Let the engine
(motor)
and the snow
thrower
adjust to outdoor
tempera-
ture before
starting
to clear snow.
4.
For complete
snow
removal,
slightly
overlap
each
path previously
taken.
5.
The snow
should
be discharged
down wind whenever
possible.
6.
For normal
usage,
set the skids so
that the scraper
bar is 1/8" above
the skids.
For extremely
hard-
packed
snow
surfaces,
adjust the
skids upward
so that the scraper
18
bar touches
the ground.
7.
On gravel
or crushed
rock surfaces,
set the skids at 1-1/4"
below the
scraper
bar.
See To Adjust
Skid
Height
paragraph
in the Service
&
Adjustments
section
of this manu-
al.
Rocks
and gravel
must not be
picked
up and thrown
by the ma-
chine.
8.
After the snow throwing
job has
been completed,
allow the engine
to
idle for a few minutes,
which
will
melt snow
and accumulated
ice off
the engine.
9.
Clean the snow thrower
thoroughly
after each use.
10. Remove
ice and snow
accumulation
and all debris from the entire
snow
thrower,
and flush with water
(if pos-
sible) to remove
all salt or other
chemicals.
Wipe snow
thrower
dry.
