Engaging the Augers
and Impeller
Power to the snow thrower attachment is activated by
engaging the tractor’s PTO.
1. Place the tractor’s throttle control in the FAST (rabbit)
position and allow it to remain there for efficient snow
removal.
2. Move the PTO knob or PTO lever (on tractor’s so
equipped) into the “ON” position to engage the augers
and impeller.
3. Move the PTO knob or PTO lever (on tractor’s so
equipped) into the “OFF” position to disengage the
augers and impeller.
NOTE: The PTO knob (on units so equipped) cannot be
in the engaged (ON) position when the tractor is driving
in the reverse direction. The PTO knob must be in the
disengaged (OFF) position when the shift lever is placed
in REVERSE or the electric PTO clutch will automatically
shut off.
Refer to your tractor’s Operator’s Manual for more
information regarding your tractor’s PTO and safety
interlock system.

Controls
Lift Handle
The lift handle is located on the right side of tractor and
is used to raise and lower snow thrower attachment.
1. To raise snow thrower attachment off of the ground,
pull rearward and down on the lift handle until
you feel the lift latch on the right side of the snow
thrower engage, locking the snow thrower in a raised
position See Figure 9–1.
2. To lower the snow thrower, push downward on the
lift handle until there is enough slack in the lift cable
so that you may squeeze the trigger control. With
the trigger control squeezed, gently allow the snow
thrower to lower until it reaches the ground.
Chute Directional
Control
The chute directional control assembly is found on
the left side of the tractor and includes both the chute
tilt lever as well as the chute crank. Both affect the
direction that the discharged snow is thrown.
To pivot upper section of discharge chute, affecting the
distance and angle which the snow is thrown, move
the chute tilt lever forward or rearward into a desired
position.
The direction which snow is thrown can be changed
by rotating the discharge chute with the chute crank.
Turn the chute crank clockwise to rotate the chute and
discharge snow to the left. Crank it counterclockwise to
rotate the chute and discharge snow to the right.
NOTE:
The PTO knob (on
units so equipped)
cannot be in the
engaged (ON) position
when the tractor is
driving in the reverse
direction. The PTO
knob must be in the
disengaged (OFF)
position when the
shift lever is placed
in REVERSE or the
electric PTO clutch
will automatically
shut off.
Be familiar with all
controls and their
proper operation.
Know how to stop
the machine and
disengage them
quickly.
