Chute Clean-Out Tool
WARNING!
Never use your hands to clear a
clogged chute assembly. Shut off engine and remain
behind handles until all moving parts have stopped
before unclogging.
The chute clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the rear of
the auger housing with a mounting clip. Should snow and ice
become lodged in the chute assembly during operation, proceed
as follows to safely clean the chute assembly and chute opening:
1.
Release both the Auger Control and the Drive Control.
2.
Stop the engine. Refer to the Engine Operator's Manual.
Remove the key.
3.
Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which secures it to
the rear of the auger housing.
4.
Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to
dislodge and scoop any snow and ice which has formed in
and near the chute assembly.
5.
Refasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on the
rear of the auger housing, reinsert the key and start the
snow thrower's engine.
While standing in the operator's position (behind the snow
thrower), engage the auger control for a few seconds to clear any
remaining snow and ice from the chute assembly.
