TO USE WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM

In hard packedor heavy snow conditions,conventional
snowthrowerstendto rideupandleave unevenmounds
ofsnowbehind. Forthese conditions, your new tracked

snowthrowerhasa uniqueweighttransfer system(See '_

Fig. 12) designedto minimize ride-up.

Steppingonthe weighttransferpedalshiftsmoreweight

to the auger housing.This weight transfer keeps the

snow thrower in contact with the ground and reduces
ride-upon ice and snow.

in lighter snow conditions or when transporting, you

Shouldrelease the weight transfer system for easier

steering.

• To use theweighttransfer,holdthe upperhandle
firmlyand pushdown on theweighttransferpedal

(SeeFig.12)withtheballofyourfoot.

• To release,pullupon theweighttransferpedalwith

TO ADJUST SKID HEIGHT

_Thissnow thrower is equipped with two height adjust-

ment skids,locatedon theoutside of the auger housing

(See Fig.22). These skids elevate the frontof the snow

thrower.
For normalhard sudaces, adjust the skidsas follows:

_e Make sure the weight transfer system lever is
i released byliftingupon the handle.

Place extra shear bolts supplied (found in parts

bag) undereach endofthe scraper bar nearbutnot

• underthe skid.

• Loosenthe skid mountingnuts (See Fig.22) and

pushthe skid down until it touches the ground.

_ Retightenthe mountingnuts.
i e: Set the skid onthe other side at same height.

Forrockyor unevensurfaces,raisethe frontofthesnow

-thrower by movingtheskidsdown further. This will help
preventrocksand otherdebrisfrombeingpicked upand
thrownbythe auger.

NOTE: Ifthe skidsare atthe maximum height,theweight
transfersystemwillnotwork.

TO ADJUST SCRAPER BAR

After considerableuse, the metal scraper bar will have
a definite wear pattern. The scraper bar in conjunction

with the skids shouldalways be adjusted to allow 1/8"
between the scraperbar and the sidewalk or area to be
cleaned.

• Positionthe snowthroweron a level sudace.

Loosen the carriage bolts and nuts secudng the
scraperbar tothe auger housing.

Adjustthe scraperbar tothe properposition.

CAUTION: NEVER STORE YOUR SNOW
THROWER INDOORS OR IN AN EN-
CLOSED, POORLY VENTILATED AREA

IF GASOLINE REMAINS IN THE TANK. FUMES
MAY REACH AN OPEN FLAME, SPARK OR PI-

LOT LIGHT FROM A FURNACE, WATER HEATER,
CLOTHES DRYER, ClGARETi'E, Ei'C.

To preventengine damage (if snowthroweris notused
for more than 30 days) followthe stepsbelow.

ENGINE STORAGE
Gasollnemust be removed or treated to prevent gum

deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose, and
carburetor during storage. Also during storage, al-

cohol blended gasoline that uses ethanol or metha-

nol (sometimes called gasohol) attracts water. It acts
on the gasoline to form acids which damage the
engine.

• To remove gasoline,runthe engineuntilthetank is

emptyand the engine stops.Then drainremaining
gasoline from carburetor by pressing upward on

bowldrain locatedonthebottomofcarburetor(See
Figure 42).

• If you do not want to remove gasoline, a fuel

stabilizer (such as Craftsman Fuel Stabilizer No.

33500) maybe added to anygasolineleft inthe tank

to minimizegum depositsand ackls. Ifthe tank is

almost empty, mix stablilizer withfresh gasolinein
a separate container and add some to the tank.

ALWAYS FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ON STABI-
LIZER CONTAINER. THEN RUN ENGINE AT
LEAST 10 MINUTES AFTER STABILIZER IS

ADDED TO ALLOW MIXTURE TO REACH CAR-
BURETOR, STORE SNOW'i'HROWER INASAFE

PLACE. SEE WARNING ABOVE,

You can keep your engine in good operaUng condi-
tion during storage by:

• Changingoil.

• Lubricatingthe piston/cylinder area. This can be

donebyfirstremovingthe sparkplugand squirting

cleanengineoilintothe sparkplughole.Then cover ....

the spark plug holewith a rag to absorb oil spray. •

Next, rotatethe engine by pullingthe startertwoor

three times. Finally,reinstallspark plugand attach
spark plugwire. =

SNOW THROWER STORAGE

• Thoroughlyclean the snowthrower.

• Lubricate all lubrication points (see the Mainte-

nance section on pages 16-17).

• Be surethat all nuts,belts and screwsare securely
fastened. Inspectall visible moving parts fordam-

age, breakage and wear;Replace if necessary.

• Touch upallrustedor chippedpaint surfaces;sand

lightly beforepainting.

• Cover the bare metal pads of the blower housing

augerand the impellerwith rust preventative, such
as sprayable lubricant.

NOTE: A yearlycheckuportuneupby a SEARS Service
Centerisagoodwayto insurethatyoursnow throwerwill
provide=_imum performancefor tha next season.

O'I_IER

• if possible, store your snow thrower indoors and

cover it togive protectionfrom dust and dirt.

• Ifthe machinemustbestoredoutdoors,blockupthe
