• When performing maintenance that requires the unit to
be tipped, the fuel tank must be empty or fuel can leak
out and result in a fire or explosion.

the snowthrower standing up on the auger housing for an
extended period of time.

a piece of cloth. Then, use the cloth to apply a very thin
coat of oil to the hex shaft (C, Figure 23). Do this before
storage and at the start of each season.
NOTICE Do not let grease or oil touch the rubber friction
wheel or the disc drive plate. If grease or oil touches the
friction wheel, replace it. Do not attempt to clean it. If grease
