OPERATION

BEFORE OPERATING SNOWTHROWER
■
Check the fasteners. Make sure all fasteners are tight.
■
Read this OPERATOR'S MANUAL and OPERATOR SAFETY before
operating your snowthrower. Compare the illustrations with your
SNOWTHROWER to familiarize yourself with the location of
various controls and adjustments. Save this manual for future
reference.
WARNING: The operation of any snowthrower can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields before beginning snowthrower operation. We recommend
standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask over spectacles.
OPERATE THE SNOWTHROWER
CAUTION: Operation with a Snow Cab. Wind may blow
exhaust gasses back towards the operator. If you notice
the smell of exhaust, change direction of operation.
NOTICE: Do not throw snow toward a building as hidden ob-
jects could be thrown with sufficient force to cause damage.
1. Start the engine. See "To Start Engine" in this section.
2. Press the chute rotation switch (A A , Figure 7) to the UP/DOWN posi-
tion to rotate the discharge chute left or right. See "Discharge Chute,
Deflector, and Grip Warmer" in this section.
3. Push the deflector control lever (B B ) forward or pull back to control the
angle of the chute deflector. See "Discharge Chute, Deflector, and Grip
Warmer" in this section.
CAUTION: Before operating, make sure the area in
front of the snow thrower is clear of bystanders or
obstacles.
4. Fully press and hold the auger control lever (C C , Figure 7) to engage
auger rotation. Releasing the auger control lever will disengage the
auger - unless the Free-Hand™ control has been activated.
5. Fully press and hold the traction/Free-Hand™ control lever (D D ) to en-
gage the traction drive and begin moving the snowthrower. To disen-
gage the traction drive, completely release the lever.
6. When BOTH levers are depressed, the Free-Hand™ control is acti-
vated. This allows auger control lever to be released - YET AUGER
ROTATION WILL CONTINUE - until the Free-Hand™ control is re-
leased.
NOTE: Always release the traction control lever before moving
the speed select lever.
