NOTE: To increase or decrease the tension on the two-way chute control, tighten or
loosen the wing knob on the chute assembly.
Chute Directional Control
The chute directional control is located on the left side of the snow thrower.
To change the direction in which snow is thrown, crank clockwise to
discharge to the left and counterclockwise to discharge to the right.
Skid Shoes
Position the skid shoes based on surface conditions. Adjust upward for hard-packed
snow. Adjust downward when operating on gravel or crushed rock surfaces.
Wheel Steering Controls
The left and right wheel steering controls are located on the underside of the
handles. Squeeze the right control to turn right; squeeze the left control to turn left.
NOTE: Operate the snow thrower in open areas until you are familiar with these
controls.
Headlight
The headlight is located inside of the handle panel.
Drift cutters
The drift cutters are designed for use in deep snow. Their use is optional for normal
snow conditions. Maneuver the snow thrower so that the cutters penetrate a high
standing snow drift to assist snow falling into the augers for throwing.
Clean-Out Tool
The chute clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the rear of the auger housing
with a mounting clip. Should snow and ice become lodged in the chute assembly
during operation, proceed as follows to safely clean the chute assembly and chute
opening:
Never use your hands to clear a clogged chute assembly. Shut off engine
and remain behind handles until all moving parts have stopped before
unclogging.
1.
Release both the Auger Control and the Wheel drive control.
2.
Stop the engine by removing the key.
3.
Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which secures it to the rear of the
auger housing.
4.
Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to dislodge and scoop any
snow and ice which has formed in and near the chute assembly.
5.
Refasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on the rear of the auger
housing, reinsert the key and start the snow thrower's engine.
6.
While standing in the operator's position (behind the snow thrower), engage
the auger control for a few seconds to clear any remaining snow and ice from
the chute assembly.
WARNING
OPERATION

Before Starting Engine

Read, understand, and follow all instructions and warnings on the machine
and in this manual before operating.
Oil
The unit was shipped with oil in the engine. Check oil level before each operation
to ensure adequate oil in the engine. For further instructions, refer to the Service &
Maintenance section of this manual.
NOTE: Be sure to check the engine on a level surface with the engine stopped.
1.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe the dipstick clean.
2.
Insert the cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, and tighten the cap turning
clockwise until cap is seated.
NOTE: On some engines, a threaded screw cap will be present instead of
the quarter turn locking cap. In the instance of a threaded oil cap/dipstick,
DO NOT screw the cap/dipstick in to check. Check the oil by resting the cap/
dipstick on the threads, but not screwing it in.
3.
Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick. If the level is low, slowly add oil (5W-30,
with a minimum classification of SF/SG) until oil level registers between high
(H) and low (L).
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may result in engine smoking, hard
starting or spark plug fouling.
4.
Replace and tighten cap/dipstick firmly before starting engine
Gasoline
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine indoors or while the
engine is hot or running. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
Use automotive gasoline (unleaded or low leaded to minimize combustion chamber
deposits) with a minimum of 87 octane. Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol or 15%
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) can be used. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture
or dirty gasoline. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or water in the fuel tank. DO NOT use E85
gasoline.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke or
allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where
gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed
properly and securely.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the
engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor
1.
Clean around fuel fill before removing cap to fuel to prevent debris from
entering fuel tank..
2.
A fuel level indicator is located in the fuel tank. Fill tank until fuel reaches the
fuel level indictor. See Figure 10 inset. Be careful not to overfill.
