7. As engine warms up and begins to operate evenly,
rotate choke lever slowly to the 1/2 Choke position.
When the engine begins to run smoothly, move the
choke to the OFF position. If engine falters, return
to FULL choke, then slowly move to 1/2 then OFF
position.
To Stop Engine
1. To stop engine, turn ignition key counter-clockwise.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug
to prevent accidental starting while equipment is
unattended.
To help prevent possible freeze-up of starter,
proceed as follows:
1. Run engine for a few minutes before stopping to help
dry off any moisture on the engine.
2. Electric Starter: Connect power cord to switch box
on engine, then to 120 volt AC receptacle. With the
engine running, push starter button and spin the
starter for several seconds. The unusual sound made
by spinning the starter will not harm engine or starter.
Disconnect the power cord from receptacle first, and
then from switch box.
3. Recoil Starter: With engine running, pull starter rope
with a rapid, continuous full arm stroke three or four
times. Pulling the starter rope will produce a loud
clattering sound, which is not harmful to the engine or
starter.
4. Wipe all snow and moisture from the carburetor cover
in the area of the control levers. Also, move control
levers back and forth several times. Leave choke
control in the FULL choke position.
5. Remove ignition key and disconnect spark plug wire to
prevent accidental starting.
NOTE: Excessive
upward pressure on
the handle will result
in premature wear
on the rubber auger
blades which would
not be covered by
warranty.
Operating the Snow Thrower
The pitch of the chute assembly controls the angle at
which the snow is thrown.
1. Loosen the star knob found on the left side of the
chute assembly and
pivot the upper chute
upward or downward
to the desired pitch.
Retighten the star
knob before operating
the snow thrower.
2. Position the chute
assembly opening
by using the Chute
Handle to throw the snow in the desired direction.
See inset Figure 6.
Clearing Snow
WARNING: Never operate the snow
thrower with bystanders in front of or
near the discharge chute opening.
1. Engage the auger by squeezing the auger control
handle against the upper handle. See Figure 5.
2. Lift up slightly on the handle to allow the rubber
paddles on the auger to contact the pavement and
propel the snow thrower forward. Pushing downward
on the handle will raise the augers off the ground
and stop forward motion.
3. Discharge snow downwind whenever possible.
Slightly overlap each previously cleared path.
NOTE: Excessive upward pressure on the handle will
result in premature wear on the rubber auger blades
which would not be covered by warranty.
Operating Tips
1. Run the engine for a few minutes before stopping to
help dry any moisture on the engine.
2. Clean the snow thrower thoroughly after each use.
WARNING: Muffler, engine and
surrounding areas become hot and
can cause a burn. Be careful and do
not touch when hot.
