Chute Clean-Out Tool
The chute clean-out tool is conveniently fastened to the
rear of the auger housing with a mounting clip. Should
snow and ice become lodged in the chute assembly
during operation, proceed as follows to safely clean the
chute assembly and chute opening:
• Release both the Auger Control and the
Drive
Control
.
• Stop the engine by removing the ignition key.
• Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which
secures it to the rear of the auger housing.
• Use the shovel-shaped end of the clean-out tool to
dislodge and scoop any snow and ice which has
formed in and near the chute assembly.
WARNING: Never use your hands to clean
snow and ice from the chute assembly or
auger housing
• Refasten the clean-out tool to the mounting clip on
the rear of the auger housing, reinsert the ignition
key and start the snow thrower’s engine.
• While standing in the operator’s position (behind
the snow thrower), engage the auger control for a
few seconds to clear any remaining snow and ice
from the chute assembly.
Drive / Auger Lock
The drive/auger lock allows the user to operate the
snow thrower with one hand, leaving the left hand free
to operate the chute directional control.
• Engage both the Auger Control and the
Drive
Control at the same time.
• Release the Auger Control and it will remain
engaged until the Drive Control is also released.
Operating Tips
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes
after starting. The engine will not develop full power
until it reaches operating temperature.
WARNING: The muffler, engine and
surrounding areas become hot and can
cause a burn. Do not touch.
• Discharge snow downwind whenever possible.
• Slightly overlap each previous swath.
• Set the skid shoes 1/4” below the scraper bar for
normal usage. The skid shoes may be adjusted
upward for hard-packed snow. Adjust downward
when using on gravel or crushed rock.
• Avoid possible starter freeze-up. Clean the snow
thrower thoroughly after each use.
