Setting Up
Your Snow
Thrower
IMPORTANT: The snow thrower is shipped with oil and
WITHOUT GASOLINE. After assembly, refer to separate
engine manual for proper fuel and engine oil recom-
mendations.
Loose Parts
• The augers are secured to the auger shaft with shear
pins and bow tie cotter pins. If you hit a foreign object
or ice jam, the snow thrower is designed so that the
pins may shear. Replacement shear pins and cotter
pins are provided for your convenience. Store these
safely until needed.
Items Required For Assembly
