Throw Snow to Both Sides
CLOGGING CHECKLIST
In case of clogging, the snow throwing action will de-
crease and finally stop. When this occurs, disen-
gage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, disconnect
the fuel solenoid wire [diesel engines] or spark plug
wire(s) [gasoline engines], and remove the ignition
key. Make sure all movement has stopped be-
fore attempting to unclog.
The following list of items should be checked if a
pattern of clogging begins to develop. All of these
items are capable of causing clogging.
Check that the inside of the snowblower housing
is clean and free of snow and/or ice buildup.
Check that the auger is in good condition and not
bent, both the auger flighting and the center pad-
dles.
Check the inside of the blower spout for smooth-
ness and freedom of obstruction.
Remember, anything that restricts airflow or materi-
al flow along the entire path from the auger to the
blower spout can cause clogging.
DANGER
DO NOT attempt to unclog the snowblow-
er or make any adjustments with the trac-
tor engine running. Disengage the PTO
clutch, stop the engine, and remove the
ignition key.
DANGER
NEVER place hands in the blower spout.
DO NOT use hands or feet to unclog the
snowblower. Use a short stick or similar
tool to remove any clogged material.
