O
Push the primer button while covering the vent hole
as follows: (Remove finger from primer button be-
tween primes)_
Do not prime if temperature is above 50°E
Two times if temperature is 50°F to 15°F
Four times if temperature is below 15°F.
® Pull the recoil starter handle rapidly. Do not allow the
handleto snap back, but allow itto rewind slowlywhile
keeping a firm hold on the starter handle.
• As the engine warms up and begins to operate
evenly, rotate the choke control slowly to the OFF
position,. If the engine falters, return to FULL choke,
then slowly move to the OFF position.
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes
because the engine will not develop full power until it
reaches operatingtemperature,
• Run the engine at full throttle (RUN) when throwing
snow°
WARM START
If restarting a warm engine after a short shutdown, leave
choke at OFF and do not push the primer button. If the
engine fails to start, follow the Cold Start instructions
above.
FROZEN STARTER
tf the starter is frozen and will not turn engine:
O Pull as much rope out of the starter as possible
• Release the starter handle and let it snap back
against the starter
If the engine still fails to start, push the primer button two
or three times again and repeat the two previous steps
until the engine starts. Then continue with the directions
for cold slart.
To heip prevent possible freeze-up of recoil starter and
engine controls, proceed as follows after each snow
removal job
e With the engine running, pull the starter rope hard
with a continuous full arm stroke three or four times.
Pulling of starter rope will produce a loud clattering
sound This is not harmlul to the engine or starter.
e With the engine not running, wipe all snow and
moisture fromthe carburetor cover in area of control
levers. Also move throttle control, choke control, and
starter handte several times
SNOW THROWING TIPS
e For maximum snow thrower efficiency in removing
snow, adjust ground speed, NEVER the throttle.. Go
slower in deep, freezing, or wet snow. tf the track
slips, reduce forward speed, The engine is designed
to deliver maximum pedormance at full throttle and
should be run at this power setting at all times
e Most efficient snow throwing is accomplished when
the snow is removed immediately after it falls.
® For complete snow removal, slightly overlap each
path previously taken.
e The snow should be discharged down wind whenever
possible_
@ For normal usage, set the skids so that the scraper
bar is 1/8" above the skids. For extremely hardpacked
snow surfaces, adjust the skids upward so that the
scraper bar touches the ground.
O On gravel orcrushed rock sudaces, set the skids at
1-1/4" below the scraper bar (see To Adjust Skid
Height paragraph on page 19). Stones and gravel
must not be picked up and thrown by the machine
• After the snow throwing job has been completed,
allow the engine to idle for a few minutes, whichwill
melt snow and accumulated ice off the engine
• Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use
I, Remove ice and snow accumufation and all debris
from the entire snow thrower, and flush with warer (if
possible) to remove all salt or other chemicals Wipe
snow thrower dry.
