Start Up - Scheppach 59081039974 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Normal (g): Allows the track to be maintained regard-
less of continuous ground contact of the snowblower.
Deep snow blowing (h): Ensures that the front part
of the snowblower remains on the ground in packed
or icy snow conditions.

9. Start up

m ATTENTION!
Always make sure the device is fully assembled
before commissioning!
m Before starting the engine, check the oil level and
ensure that the engine is in perfect condition.
Cold start – Electric starter 230V
The engine is equipped with a 230V electric starter
as well as a recoil starter. The electric starter has
a three-wire power cable and a connector and has
been designed so that it works at the voltage speci-
fied on the plate.
1. Insert the safety ignition key into the ignition slot
until you hear a click. Do not turn the key.
2. Ensure that fuel valve is in the OPEN position.
3. Move the choke control to the FULL position.
4. Squeeze the aspirator two or thee times. If the
temperature is below -25°C, additional ventilation
may be necessary. If the temperature is above
10°C, no ventilation is necessary.
Some snow engines are not equipped with ventila-
tors because ventilation is not necessary for such en-
gines.Connect the extension cable to the engine.Plug
the other end of the extension cable into the earthed
socket.
5. Push the start button until the engine starts.
6. m In order to prevent damage to the electric
starter, do not let it run continuously for more than
5 seconds with each start attempt. Wait 10 sec-
onds between attempts.
7. If the engine starts, release the start button and
move the choke control slowly to the OFF posi-
tion.
8. Disconnect the extension cable from the connec-
tion socket first, then from the engine.
Cold start - Recoil starter
1. Ensure that fuel valve is in the OPEN position.
2. Insert the safety ignition key into the ignition slot
until you hear a click. Do not turn the key.
3. Move the choke control to the FULL position.
4. Squeeze the aspirator two or thee times. If the
temperature is below -25°C, additional ventilation
may be necessary. If the temperature is above
10°C, no ventilation is necessary.

Excessive ventilation can result in too much fuel get-
ting into the cylinder which prevents the engine from
starting. If this does occur, wait a few minutes before
attempting another start and do not press the venti-
lator.
5. Hold the recoil starter handle firmly and pull the
rope slowly until you feel resistance. Allow the
rope to recoil slowly.
6. Pull the rope quickly and forcefully with a consist-
ent movement. The starter rope must not recoil
quickly.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the engine starts.
8. If the engine starts, release the recoil starter han-
dle and move the choke control slowly to the OFF
position.
Warm start
Follow the steps above, wherein the choke control
remains in the OFF position and do not use the as-
pirator.
The engine needs a few minutes to warm up other-
wise it cannot reach its full power until it reaches nor-
mal operating temperature.
In the event of snow and cold, control and moving
parts may freeze. Do not use too much force when
trying to operate frozen controls. If you experience
difficulties operating a control or part, start the engine
and let it run for a few minutes.
Snowblowing tips
It is easier and more efficient to clear snow immedi-
ately after is has fallen.
The best time to clear snow is early in the morning. At
this time, the snow is normally dry and has not been
exposed to direct sunlight and warm temperatures.
The cleared paths should overlap somewhat to en-
sure all the snow is cleared.
With large areas, start in the middle and clear the
snow to each side so that the snow is not cleared
repeatedly.
In the event of heavy snow, reduce the width of the
snow clearing by ensuring that the paths overlap and
that you move slowly.
The snow should be cleared in the direction of the
wind where possible.
The engine must remain clean and free of snow dur-
ing use. This encourages ventilation and increases
the durability of the engine.
