• On each succeeding pass, readjust the chute
deflector to the desired position and slightly
overlap the previously cleared path.
• After the area is cleared, stop the snow thrower
following instructions given below.
Before Stopping
• Run engine for a few minutes to help dry off any
moisture on engine.
• To avoid possible freeze-up of the starter, follow
these steps:
Recoil Starter
a. With the engine running, pull the starter
rope with a rapid, continuous full arm
stroke three or four times.
Electric Starter
a. Connect power cord to switch box, then to
120 Volt AC receptacle.
b. While the engine is running, push the
starter button and spin the starter for
several seconds.
c. Disconnect power cord from the receptacle
first, then from the snow thrower.
NOTE: The unusual sound from pulling the starter
rope in the case of the recoil starter, or from spinning
the starter in the case of the electric starter, will not
harm the engine.

Operating Tips
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes
as the engine will not develop full power until it
reaches operating temperature.
Warning: The temperature of muffler and
surrounding areas may exceed 150
o
F.
Avoid these areas.
• For most efficient snow removal, remove snow
immediately after it falls.
• Discharge snow downwind whenever possible.
Slightly overlap each previous swath.
• Set the skid shoes 1/4" below the scraper bar for
normal usage. The skid shoes may be adjusted
upward for hard-packed snow.
NOTE: We not recommend that you operate this
snow thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily
picked up and thrown by the auger causing an injury
or damage to the snow thrower.
• If for some reason, you have to operate the
snow thrower on gravel, keep the skid shoe in
the highest position for maximum clearance
between the ground and the shave plate.
• Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
