GENERAL PREPARATION
1. Read the operator's manual carefully before
using the tractor and snowblower. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls and
proper use of the equipment. Know how to
stop the unit and disengage the controls
quickly.
2. Wear adequate winter outer garments while
operating the equipment.
3. Check the oil level in the reduction box and
if necessary, add AGMA 5EP extreme
pressure oil, SAE 80W90 gear oil or
equivalent.
4. Check the shear bolts, on each auger
section and between the fan and gearbox
for proper tightness.
5. Adjust the skid shoes so the snowblower
runs level.
6. Before engaging the snowblower drive,
always have the engine running at idle.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damaging your
snowblower:
 Make sure the snowblower is clear of
snow and other material before engaging
the snowblower.
 Make sure the auger and fan operate
freely.
 Make sure to engage the snowblower
BEFORE the auger and the fan touch the
snow.
 Make sure to operate the snowblower at
maximum engine RPM.
CAUTION : To avoid serious injury: Do
not use your hands to unclog the chute.
Use a 36" (925mm) stick or board. Do not
attempt to unclog the chute while engine is
running. If the chute is clogged, shut off the
tractor engine, remove the key and clear the
snow from the chute.
OPERATING CONTROLS
Manual Chute Rotation
Adjust chute orientation through the rotation
handle.
Increasing Traction and Stability
The use of tire chains and wheel weights or rear
counterweights is recommended for extra
traction and stability, especially when operating
in snow and/or slippery surfaces. See your
dealer for details.
Work and Travel Speed
Working ground speed will depend on the depth
and density of the snow to be cleared. Normally,
ground speed will range from 2 to 4 km/h (1.2 to
2.5 mph) for light, dry snowfalls (3-6"), and 1 to 3
km/h (0.6 to 1.9 mph) for heavy, wet or drifted
snow.
IMPORTANT : Use full RPM power when
removing wet, sticky snow. Low RPM power
will tend to clog the chute.
