CHUTE CONTROL ROD
SNOW THROWER OPERATION
The most effective use of the snow thrower wilt be
establishsd by experience, taking into consideration the
terrain, wind conditions and the depth and weight of the
snow. It is the wind conditions and building location which
will determine the direction of the discharge chute. Since the
wind will tend to blow the discharged snow back into the
cleared area, it wilt be necessary to change the chute
direction to offset this condition. NOTE: Do not throw snow
towards a building as hidden objects could be thrown with
sufficient force to cause damage.
To engage the self-propeINng drive mechanism, proceed as
follows:
1. Start the engine as described in paragraph To Start
Engine.
2. Using the chute control rod (figure 9), position the
discharge chute so as to discharge the snow with the wind.
3. Select proper speed for snow conditions as outlined
below and set wheel drive control lever to desired position.
A. Number 1 position is for extra deep, wet, heavy
SROW,
B. Number 2 position is for deep, wet, heavy snow.
Experience will help make choice between position
1 and 2.
C. Number 3 position is for light fluffy snow.
D. Number 4 position is mainly for transporting unit
over bare or plowed areas, but may be used for very
light snow.
E. Number 5 position is for transporting unit over bare
