OPERATION
TO USE WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM ...................... ..............................
In hard packed or heavy snow conditions, conventional
snow throwers tend to ride up and leave uneven mounds
of snow behind. For these conditions, your new tracked
snow thrower has a unique weight transfer system (See
Fig, 11) designed to minimize ride-up,
Stepping on the weight transfer pedal shiit s more weight
to the auger housing. This weight transfer keeps the
snow thrower in contact with the ground and reduces
ride-up.
In Iighter snow conditions or when transporting, you
should release the weight transfer system 1or easier
steering.
e To use the weight transfer, hold the upper handle
firmly and push down on the weight transfer pedal
(See Fig_ 12) with the ball of your foot.
e To release, pull up on the weight transfer pedal with
the top of your foot.
