Shift Lever
The shift lever is located in the center of the handle
panel and is used to determine ground speed and
direction of travel. It can be moved into any of eight
positions. See Figure 9.
IMPORTANT:
Always release traction the control before
changing speeds.
Forward
Your snow thrower has six forward (F) speeds. Position
number one (1) is the slowest and position number six
(6) is the fastest.
Reverse
Your snow thrower has two reverse (R) speeds. R1 is
the slower, while R2 is the faster of the two.
Chute Crank
The chute crank is located on the left hand side of the
snow thrower. To change the direction in which snow is
thrown, turn the chute crank as follows:
• Turn clockwise to discharge to the left;
• Turn counterclockwise to discharge to the right.
Wheel Steering Controls
The left and right wheel steering controls are located on
the underside of the handles and are used to assist in
steering the snow thrower.
• Squeeze the right wheel steering control when
turning right; squeeze the left control when turning
left.
• Operate the snow thrower in open areas until
becoming familiar with these controls.
Chute Tilt Control
The distance snow is thrown can be changed by
adjusting the angle of the chute assembly. Move the
chute tilt control forward to decrease the distance,
toward the rear to increase. See Figure 9.
Discharge Chute
The angle of the discharge chute controls the distance
that the snow is thrown. Tilt the discharge chute up for
greater distance; tilt down for less distance.
Skid Shoe
The position of the skid shoe is determined by the
condition of the ground from where snow has to be
removed.
Headlight
The headlight is on whenever the engine is running.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the engine. It regulates
the speed of the engine. See Figure 9.
Safety Ignition Key
The safety ignition key must be fully inserted in the
switch before the unit will start. Remove key when snow
thrower is not in use. Do not attempt to turn the key.
See Figure 9.
