OPERATION
WARNING:
Always position the unit on the operator's right side. The
use of the unit on the operator's left side will expose
the operator to hot surfaces and can result in possible
burn injury.
WARNING:
To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never operate unit
with the bottom of the engine above waist level.
WARNING:
Never use snow thrower on frozen lakes, rivers, or
similar surfaces. Death or serious injury could occur if
the ice breaks.
WARNING:
Never use the snow thrower on a rooftop or other
unstable surface, which can result in death or serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not use snow thrower on ice, which can cause the
operator to slip and fall, resulting in possible serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not wear loose clothing, scarves, or jewelry. They
can be caught in moving parts and cause death or
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Keep all snow discharge pointed away from all electrical
devices to reduce the risk of electrocution or electric
shock.
WARNING:
Never point the snow thrower in the direction of people
or pets. Thrown snow or other objects can cause seri-
ous personal injuries.
WARNING:
Make sure the area to be cleared is free of stones,
sticks, wires, gravel, and other objects that could be
accidentally thrown by the snow thrower in any direc-
tion and cause serious personal injury to the operator
and others.
When using the snow thrower attachment, hold the unit with
your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on
the front handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in
operation. The snow thrower should be held at a comfortable
position with the rear handle about hip height.
NOTE: When used with a gas power head, always operate
at full throttle. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result
in oil dripping from the muffler. If temperature is below 40°F,
allow the engine to warm up by running it in the half choke
position for approx. 15 – 30 seconds before beginning snow
thrower operation.
 Take notice of the direction of the wind before beginning.
When possible, discharge snow in the same direction as
the wind to prevent snow from being thrown back into
your face.
 Work in one direction. Start the snow thrower and push
forward to clear snow, then stop the engine or motor as
you return to the starting point to begin plowing another
strip.
 The snow thrower has a clearing depth of 4 in. If your
snow is deeper than 4 in., it may take more than one pass
to clear.
 If the unit comes in contact with any type of obstruction
or debris during use, stop the snow thrower, disconnect
from power supply, remove the obstruction, and inspect
the unit carefully for damage before proceeding.
WARNING:
Never reach into the impeller or place any body part in
front of the snow thrower when the unit is operating or
when the unit is plugged in or has a battery installed.
Always ensure all moving parts have stopped and the
snow thrower has been unpugged, battery pack has
been removed, or spark plug wire has been disconnect-
ed before clearing any obstructions. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in serious personal injury.
 Some parts of the snow thrower can freeze under extreme
weather conditions. Do not attempt to operate the unit
with frozen parts.
 When finished, allow the unit to run for several minutes
to allow all snow to clear the impeller before storing.
NOTE: The snow thrower is designed to move loose or
powdery snow that has not been compacted. Attempt-
ing to remove heavy loads of compacted snow or frozen
a ccumulation can damage the tool.
