BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING: Experience indicates that

alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or

those using ethanol or methanol) can

attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. Start engine and let it run until fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use carburetor bowl drain to empty residual gasoline from float chamber (See figure in Storage section, page 16). Use fresh fuel next season. (See Storage Instructions on page 16 for additional information).

TO USE AUGER PROPEL ACTION

• Squeeze the auger control bar down against the upper handle to allow the auger to turn.

GASOLINE AND OIL MIXTURE

Mix gasoline and oil as follows;

• Pour 1 U.S. quart of fresh, clean, unleaded automotive gasoline to a gallon

gasoline container.

• Add 3.2 02 of clean, high quality. Crafts man two-cycle oil into the gasoline container (One 3.2 ounces of oil pro

vided}.

IMPORTANT: Do not use outboard motor oil or automobile oils, such as SAE 30 oil, or multi-viscosity oils, such as 10V\f-30 or

10W-40.

• Reinstall the cap on the gasoline con tainer and shake container vigorously so the oil mixes with the gasoline

• Add an additional 3 U.S. quarts of gasoline to the gallon container and shake the container again.

WARNING: Gasoline is flammable and

caution must be used when handling or

storing it. Do not fill fuel tank while snow

thrower is running, hot, or when snow

thrower is in an enclosed area. Keep away

from open flame, electrical spark, and do

not smoke while filling the fuel tank. Never

fill fuel tank completely; but fill the tank to

within 1/4-1/2 inch from the top to provide space for expansion of fuel. Always fill fuel tank outdoors and use a funnel or spout to prevent spilling. Make sure to wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the engine. Store gasoline in a clean, approved container, and

keep the cap in place on the container.

Keep gasoline in a cool, well ventilated place; never in the house. Never buy more than a 30 day supply of gasoline to ensure volatility. Gasoline is intended to be used as a fuel for internal combustion engines; therefore, do not use gasoline for any other

purpose. Since many children like the smell of gasoline, keep it out of their reach

because the fumes are dangerous to inhale,

as well as being explosive.

Before starting the engine, be certain that you have read and understood all the instructions on the preceding pages.

COLD START

• Insert the key and turn ON.

• Be sure the choke is in the OFF posi tion and pull the starter handle until the engine starts.

• Do not prime a warm engine, if the en gine fails to start, follow the Cold En gine Start instructions on page 8.

A CAUTION: Never run engine indoors

or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and a deadly gas. Always stand behind snow thrower(operator‘s position) when starting engine. Do not put hands, feet, hair or loose clothing in or near the discharge chute deflector or auger housing while the engine is running. The tempera ture of the muffler and neaby areas may exceed 150° R; avoid these areas also.

WARNING: Objects such as gravel, rocks or other debris, if struck by the auger, may be thrown with sufficient force to cause personal injury or property damage.

We recommend standard safety glasses or Wide Vision Safety Mask for over your glasses.

SNOW THROWING TIPS

• This snow thrower will propel itself forward when the handle is raised enough to cause the auger blades to contact the ground. The auger should stop when auger control bar is released.

If it does not, refer to Adjust Auger

Control Cable paragraph on page 12.

• For most efficient snow throwing, turn the discharge chute deflector to throw snow downwind, and slightly overlap each swath. In light snow take up to a full cut and in heavy snow take less than a full cut.

• The distance snow will be discharged can be adjusted by moving the discharge chute deflector. Raise the deflector for more distance or lower the deflector for less distance.

• In windy conditions, lower the chute

deflector to direct discharged snow close to the ground where it is less likely to

blow into unwanted areas.

• Keep the area to be cleared free of

stones, toys and other foreign objects for safety and to prevent damage to the snow thrower.

• Do not use the auger propeliing feature

when clearing gravel or crushed rock

driveways. Move the handle down to raise the auger slightly.

• The allowable forward speed of the snow thrower is dependent on the depth and weight of the snow. Experience wilt establish the most effective method of using the snow thrower under different

conditions.

WET PACKED SNOW

• Move slowly into snow of this condition. The greater the depth, the slower you should go. When it appears that the wet, packed snow is causing the auger to slow down and the chute to clog, back off and begin a series of short jabs into the snow.

These short back and forth, 4 to 6 inch, jabbing motions will "belch" the snow from the chute.

SNOW BANKS AND DRIFTS

• In snow of greater depth than the unit, use the jabbing technique described above. Turn the discharge chute away from the snow bank. More time will be required to remove snow of this type than

level snow.

DRY AND AVERAGE SNOW

• Snow up to eight inch depth can be removed rapidly and easily by walking at

a moderate rate. For snow or drifts of a greater depth you may find it desirable to slow your pace to allow the discharge chute to dispose of the snow as rapidly as the auger receives the snow.

• Plan to have the snow discharged in the direction the wind is blowing.

NOTICE: This engine complies with all cur

rent Australian and New Zealand limitaions regarding electromagnetic interference.

The spark plug is underneath the control

panel and is accessible through the spark plug access cover.

• Remove black plastic spark plug access cover by squeezing the sides and pulling cover away. See figure below.

• The spark plug and wire are now visible.

• Push the spark plug wire onto the spark plug.

• Reinstall the bottom cover.

ENGINE SERVICE

Unless the operator is fully qualified to make engine repairs or adjustments, we recommend that such work should be done by technicians trained to work on snow thrower type engines. Take your snow thrower to your nearest Craftsman Service Center for repair and adjustment.

ADJUST ENGINE SPEED

Your engine speed has been factory set. Do

not attempt to change engine speed or it may

result in personal injury. If you believe that the engine is running too fast or too slow, take you r snow thrower to your nearest Craftsman

Service Center for repair and adjustment.

• Remove the spark plug wire.

• Clean the area around the plug base to prevent dirt from entering the engine when the plug is removed.

• Remove the spark plug. If it is cracked, fouled or dirty, it must be replaced . See page 10 for the proper replacement plug.

• Set the gap between the electrodes of the new spark plug at .030 inch. Next, install the spark plug in the cylinder head.

• Torque plug to 18 to 20 ft. lb. if you do not use a torque wrench, tighten the plug

firmly.

STORAGE

A WARNING: Never store your snow

thrower indoors or in an enclosed, poorly ventilated area. If gasoline remains in the tank, fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light from a furnace, water

heater, clothes dryer, cigarette, etc.

To prevent engine damage (if snow thrower

is not used for more than 30 days) follow

the steps below.

SNOW THROWER STORAGE

• Thoroughly clean the snow thrower.

• Lubricate all the lubrication points. See the Maintenance section, page 11.

• Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are securely fastened. Inspect all visible

moving parts for damage, breakage and

wear. Replace if necessary.

• Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting.

• Cover the bare metal parts of the blower

housing and auger with rust preventative, such as a spray lubricant.

ENGINE STORAGE

Gasoline must be removed or treated to prevent gum deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose, and carburetor during storage. Also during storage, alcohol blended gasoline that uses ethanol or methanol (sometimes called gasohol) attracts water. It acts on the gasoline to

form acids which damage the engine.

• To remove gasoline, run the engine until the tank is empty and the engine stops. Then drain remaining gasoline from carburetor by pressing upward on bowl drain located on the bottom of carburetor. See next figure.

Carburetor

Carburetor Bowl Drain

Right side view of

engine

• If you do not want to remove gasoline, a fuel stabilizer (such as Craftsman fuel stabilizer No. 33500) may be added to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize gum deposits and acids. If the tank is almost empty, mix stabilizer with fresh gasoline in a separate container and add some to the tank. Always follow instruc tions on stabilizer container. Instructions on stabilizer container. Then run engine at least 10 minutes after stabilizer is added to allow mixture to reach carbure tor. Store snow thrower in a safe place. See Warning under STORAGE.

OTHER

• If possible, store your snow thrower indoors with the gas removed and cover it to give protection from dust and dirt.

• If the machine must be stored outdoors, block up the snow thrower to be sure the entire machine is off the ground.

• Cover the snow thrower with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic or vinyl.

NOTE: A yearly checkup or tune-up at a Craftsman Service Center is a good way of ensuring that your snow thrower will

provide maximum performance for the next season.
