Clean-Out Tool - Sears Craftsman 247.88790 Manual Del Propietário

NOTE: It is not recommended that you operate this
snow thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily
picked up and thrown by the auger causing an injury or
damage to the snow thrower.
• If for some reason, you have to operate the snow
thrower on gravel, keep the skid shoe in the highest
position for maximum clearance between ground
and shave plate.
• Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
