Chute Clean-Out Tool
The clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the rear of
the auger housing with a mounting clip. See Figure 11.
1. Release both the auger control and the drive/auger
control lock.
2. Stop the engine by moving the throttle to the stop
position.
3. Remove the clean-out tool from the mounting clip.
4. Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to
remove any snow and ice in the chute assembly.
5. Re-fasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on
the rear of the auger housing and restart 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 or ice from the
chute assembly before continuing to clear snow.
WARNING: Never use your hands to
clean snow and ice from the chute
assembly or auger housing.
Tire Pressure (Pneumatic Tires)
The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Check
the tire pressure before operating the snow thrower. Refer
to the tire side wall for tire manufacturer’s recommended
psi and deflate (or inflate) the tires as necessary.
NOTE: If the tire pressure is not equal in both tires, the
unit may not travel in a straight path and the shave plate
may wear unevenly.

to clean snow and
ice from the chute
assembly or auger
housing.
IMPORTANT
Under any circum-
stance do not exceed
manufacturer’s recom-
mended psi. Equal tire
pressure should be
maintained at all times.
Excessive pressure
when seating beads
may cause tire/rim

with force sufficient to
cause serious injury.
Refer to sidewall of
tire for recommended
pressure.
