Clearing a Clogged Discharge Chute
WARNING! Never use your hands to clear a
clogged chute assembly. Shut off motor, disconnect
power cord, and remain behind handle until all
moving parts have stopped before using a clean-out
tool or stick to clear the chute assembly.
Hand contact with the rotating auger inside the discharge
chute is the most common cause of injury associated with snow
throwers. Never use your hand to clean out the discharge chute.
To clear the chute:
1. SHUT THE MOTOR OFF AND DISCONNECT POWER CORD!
2. Wait 10 seconds to be sure the auger has stopped rotating.
3. Always use a clean-out tool or stick, not your hands.
