Features & Controls
Speed Selector
Selects forward speeds 1-6 and reverse speeds 1-2. No
neutral position or gate is required, since the traction
drive design automatically provides "neutral" (no forward
or reverse movement), whenever the Drive Control is
released.
Traction Control / Free Hand™
Lock
Engages traction drive to wheels when depressed. Also
locks auger control when depressed simultaneously.
Releasing the traction control lever releases the Free
Hand™ auger control lock and stops the drive wheels
and auger.
Auger Control
Engages the auger/impeller when depressed. Releasing
the control stops the auger/impeller.
Chute Direction Control
Push the lever forward to unlock the rotator control.
Moving the lever to the left will turn the spout to the left
side and moving the lever to the right will rotate the spout
to the right side. Releasing the lever locks the spout in
position.
Remote Deflector Control
Chute Deflector: Locks chute deflector in desired posi-
tion. Tilting the chute deflector UP provides a higher
stream and greater distance, while tilting the deflector
DOWN provides a lower stream and less distance.
Easy Turn™ Control
Easy Turn Control: Engaging the Easy Turn™ lever
releases the left wheel to allow easy turning in tight
areas. Releasing the control automatically engages both
drive wheels for full traction.
Traction Lock Pins: (1100 Series Only) The right trac-
tion wheel can be completely released using the lock-
ing pin (see Figure 9). This allows the unit to be easily
moved with the engine off.
Stop Switch (Optional)
Turn the switch to the ON position to operate the engine.
Turn the switch to the OFF position to stop the engine.

Starter
Electric Start: Depressing the starter button activates
the electric starter. The electric start button operates
on 12+ll Models): Pulling the recoil handle cranks the
engine.
Fuel
Fuel tank filler cap (see illustration). Note: The fuel shut
off valve is located under the fuel tank or on the front of
the engine. Close the valve when the snowthrower is
not in use. Open the valve before starting. Leave a min-
imun of one inch of space at top of tank for fuel expan-
sion.
Primer Button
When pressed, the primer button provides initial fuel to
help start a cold engine. Normally, pressing the primer
button twice will provide enough fuel to start a cold
engine.
Throttle Lever (Optional)
Controls engine speed. Move toward the hare icon for
faster engine speed, move toward the turtle icon for
slower engine speed. Move the throttle all the way to
STOP the engine. Set the throttle to FAST (hare icon) for
operation.
Engine Key
The engine key prevents the engine from being started.
The key must be fully inserted into the key slot for the
unit to start. The key can also be used to stop the engine
by pulling the key out of the key slot.
Choke Knob
The choke knob adjusts the air/fuel mixture, and is used
to help start a cold engine by providing a richer mixture.
Once the engine is warm and running smoothly, the
choke knob should be set to the off position to provide a
normal air/fuel mix.
Headlight (Select Models, Not Pictured)
The headlight is on at all times when the engine is run-
ning.
