SNOW THROWING TIPS
• For maximumsnowthrower efficiency, ad_JStground
speed, not throttle, If the track slips, reduce forward
speed. The engine isdesigned to deliver maximum
p_dormance at full throttle and should be run at trois
power setting at all times..
e Most efficient snow throwing is accomplished when
the snow is removed immediately after it falls
_Forcomplete sn0w removal, slightly Overlap each
•path previously taken.
e The snow should be discharged down wind when-
_e_,erpossible.
• '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
_hat the scraper bar touches the ground
® _'Ongravel or crushed rock surfaces, set the skids at
,'I-1/4" below the scraper bar (see To Adjust Skids
_eight paragraph on page 19). Rocks and gravel
must not be picked up and thrown by the machine.
• If the front of the snow thrower has a tendency to
.._raise,reduce the ground speed and engage the
weight transfer system.
• _Afterthe 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.
® Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
