Troy-Bilt 5210R Snow Blower User Manual


 
OPERATION
Run the engine at full throttle when throwing snow.
Use a lower wheel speed in heavy wet snow.
Spray the auger, inside of auger housing, inside of
discharge chute, and inside of deflector chute with
silicone spray to prevent snow from sticking to these
areas.
Before the first snowfall, inspect the area in which
you'll be using the snowthrower. Remove any door-
mats, sleds, boards, wires, and other foreign objects.
If snow should stick in the deflector chute
or
auger,
DO NOT use your hands
or
feet to dislodge it. Shut
the engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire, and
prevent it from touching the spark plug. Then use a
long stick (at least 3-feet long) to unclog thses areas.
For best results, remove snow as soon as possible
after it falls.
18
Always slightly overlap each pass to make sure
that all snow is removed.
If possible, always try to throw snow downwind. If
you try to throw snow upwind, it could be blown back
on you, on the snowthrower, and on the area
you're
clearing.
If you're throwing snow from a smooth area, adjust
the skid shoes so that the scraper blade is above the
ground by approximately
1/8-inch.
If you're throwing snow from a gravel covered area,
adjust the skid shoes so that the scraper blade clears
the gravel.
