5.9 DRIVING TIPS
The silencer and surrounding parts become very
hot when the engine is running. Risk of burns.
1. Always adapt the speed to the snowy conditions.
Regulate the speed with the gear stick not the throttle.
2. Snow is more effectively removed directly after falling.
3. Always throw the snow in the direction of the wind if
possible.
4. Adjust the shoes with the screws (A in fig. 1) to suit the
ground conditions:
- On flat ground, e.g. asphalt, the shoes should be about
3 mm under the scraping blade.
- On uneven ground, e.g. gravel paths, the shoes should
be about 30 mm under the scraping blade.
Always adjust the shoes so that gravel and stones
are not fed into the snow thrower. There is a risk
for personal injury if these are thrown out at high
speed.
Ensure the shoes are adjusted the same on both sides.
5. Adapt the speed so that the snow is thrown in an even
stream.
If snow fastens in the chute do not try to remove it
before:
- Releasing both clutch levers. Stopping the engine.
- Removing the ignition key.
- Do not put your hand inside the chute or auger.
Use the chute clearing tool supplied.

5.10 AFTER USE

1. Check for loose or damaged parts. If required, change
damaged parts.
2. Tighten loose screws and nuts.
3. Brush all the snow from the machine.
4. Move all the controls backwards and forwards a few
times.
5. Put the choke in position
Do not cover the machine while the engine and
silencer are still warm.

OIL CHANGE

Change the oil the first time after 2 hours of operation, and
subsequently every 25 hours of operation or once a season.
Change oil when the engine is warm.
The engine oil may be very warm if it is drained off
directly after the engine is shut off. So allow the
engine to cool a few minutes before draining the
oil.
1. Lean the snow thrower slightly to the right so that the oil
draining plug is the lowest point of the engine.
2. Unscrew the oil draining plug.
3. Let the oil run out into a container.
4. Screw back the oil draining plug.
5. Fill with new oil: See BEFORE STARTING above for
type.
Oil amount in the crankcase: 0.8 litre

SPARK PLUG

Check the spark plug once a year or every hundred hours of
use.
Clean or change the plug if the electrodes are burnt. The
engine manufacturer recommends: Champion RC12YC.
Correct spark gap: 0.7/-0.8 mm
