Operating Tips
If snowthrower hits a foreign object while in
operation, the object could be thrown in
operator’s or bystander’s direction. Thrown
objects could cause serious personal injury.
Keep the area to be cleared free of all foreign
objects which may be picked up and thrown by
the rotor blades.
Warning
Always keep children and pets away from the area of
operation.
Keep the area to be cleared free of stones, toys, or
other foreign objects which the rotor blades can throw.
Such items could be covered by snowfall and go
unnoticed. If the snowthrower strikes an obstruction or
a foreign object during operation, stop the
snowthrower, unplug the extension cord, remove the
obstruction, and check the snowthrower for damage.

Adjust the height of the snow stream by raising or
lowering the chute deflector.
