Tips for Operation
Snow is best removed as soon as possible after snow
fall.
To clear an area, run unit in an overlapping series of
paths. For large areas, start in the middle and throw
snow to each side, so snow is not cleared more than
once.
ALWAYS direct snow away from area to be cleared and
with direction of the wind.

1. Set Throttle to Slow or Part-Throttle position.
2. Press down on handlebars enough to raise front
of unit slightly off surface.
3. Engage wheel drive clutch without engaging
attachment drive clutch.
TRANSPORT
ALWAYS shut off engine, remove key, and close fuel
shut-off valve when transporting unit on a truck or
trailer.
Use extra care when loading or unloading unit onto
trailer or truck.
Secure unit chassis to transport vehicle. NEVER
secure from rods or linkages that could be damaged.
DO NOT transport machine while engine is running.
