HOW TO REMOVE OBJECTS
FROM AUGER
_ ARNING: Do not attempt
to remove any item that may
become lodged in auger
without taking the following precau-
tions:
• Release auger drive lever.
• Move throttle lever to stop position.
• Remove (do not turn) ignition key.
• Disconnect spark plug wire.
• Do not place your hands in the au-
ger or discharge chute. Use a pry
bar.
SNOW THROWING TIPS
1. For maximum snow thrower efficien-
cy in removing snow, adjust ground
speed, NEVER the throttle. Go
slower in deep, freezing or wet
snow. If the wheels slips, reduce
forward speed. The engine is de-
signed to deliver maximum perfor-
mance at full throttle and should be
run at this power setting at all times.
2. Most efficient snow throwing is ac-
complished when the snow is re-
moved immediately after if falls.
3. For complete snow removal, slightly
overlap each path previously taken.
4. The snow should be discharged
down wind whenever possible.
5. For normal usage, set the skids so
that the scraper bar is 1/8" above
the skids. For extremely hard-
packed snow surfaces, adjust the
skids upward so that the scraper
bar touches the ground.
6. On gravel or crushed rock surfaces,
set the skids at 1-1/4" below the
scraper bar. See To Adjust Skid
Height paragraph in the Service &
Adjustments section of this manu-
al. Rocks and gravel must not be
picked up and thrown by the ma-
chine.
7. After the snow throwing job has
been completed, allow the engine to
idle for a few minutes, which will
melt snow and accumulated ice off
the engine.
8. Clean the snow thrower thoroughly
after each use.
9. Remove ice and snow accumulation
and all debris from the entire snow
thrower, and flush with water (if pos-
sible) to remove all salt or other
chemicals. Wipe snow thrower dry.
