*On select models, the drive control lever also
locks the auger control lever so that you can
operate the chute directional control without
interrupting the snow throwing process. If the
auger control lever is engaged simultaneously
with the drive control lever, the operator can
release the auger control lever (on the left
handle) and the augers will remain engaged.
Release both control levers to stop augers and
wheel drive.
NOTE: Always release drive control lever
before changing speeds on all units except the
800-series hydro. Failure to do so will result
in increased wear on your machine's drive
system.
