NOTICE
A safe operator is the best insurance against accidents. All operators, no matter how experienced they
may be, should read this Operator's Manual and all other related manuals before attempting to operate an
implement. Please read the following section and pay particular attention to all safety recommendations
contained in this manual and those labeled on the implements and on the tractor.
THE SNOWBLOWER
Before Operation
1. Read and understand this operator's manual
and tractor operator's manual. Know how to
operate all controls and how to stop the unit
and disengage the controls quickly.
2. Never wear loose, torn, or bulky clothing
around the tractor and implement. It may
catch on moving parts or controls, leading to
the risk of accident.
3. Before the snow season, thoroughly inspect
the area where the equipment is to be used
and remove all doormats, sleds, boards and
other foreign objects.
4. Disengage clutch and shift into neutral
before starting the engine.
5. Do not operate equipment in wintertime
without wearing adequate winter garments.
6. Never attempt to make any adjustments
while engine is running. Read this manual
carefully to acquaint yourself with the
equipment as well as the tractor operator's
manual. Working with unfamiliar equipment
can lead to accidents. Be thoroughly familiar
with the controls and proper use of the
equipment. Know how to stop the unit and
disengage the controls quickly.
7. Keep all shields in place and properly tighten
all mounting hardware.
8. Periodically, inspect all moving parts for wear
and replace with authorized service parts if
an excessive amount of wear is present.
9. Replace all missing, illegible, or damaged
safety and warning decals. See list of
decals in the operator's manual.
10. Do not modify or alter this equipment or
any of its components, or any equipment
function without first consulting your dealer.
11. Keep safety decals clean of dirt and grime.
12. Make sure the tractor is counterweighted
as recommended by your dealer. Weights
provide the necessary balance to improve
stability, traction and steering.
