OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
8
OPERATING THE SNOW THROWER
1. Squeeze the power trigger on the powerhead
to start the rotor. The depth and weight of the snow
governs the forward speed. Refer to the operator's
manual of the powerhead for further instructions.
2. Do not tip the snow thrower to self-propel. Push the
snow thrower so that unit rides on the scraper.
DISCHARGE DIRECTION ADJUSTMENT
Snow may be discharged to the left, straight forward, or
to the right.
To change the direction, use the following instructions:
1. Firmly grasp handle of discharge directional control and
pull up. This releases the rod, which is spring-loaded,
from the current discharge direction slot and allows free
movement (Fig. 4).
SPECIAL COLD WEATHER
STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To aid starting the two-cycle or
four-cycle gasoline powerheads in cold
weather, the unit should be stored in an area
with the temperature above 40˚F (4.4˚ C).
Refuel and store the gasoline powerhead in
an area free of potential vapor ignition sources
such as open flames (pilot lights) or electrical
sparking devices (switches, electric motors).
2 Turn the discharge directional control to the left,
center, or right, depending on which direction you
want to throw the snow (Fig. 5).
NOTE: From the center position, the discharge
directional control turns 45 degrees only in either
direction (left or right). Do not force.
3. Release discharge directional control into the
discharge direction slot to secure position of snow
throwing desired.
NOTE: Make sure discharge directional control is securely
positioned in direction slot and cannot rotate freely.
TIPS FOR BEST SNOW THROWER RESULTS
4. For the most efficient snow throwing, keep the vanes
parallel, throw snow downwind, and slightly overlap
each swath (Fig. 6)
5. Hold the unit by the handle and use a swinging or
sweeping motion when cleaning steps or deep drifts.
