Stopping The Engine
Run engine for a few minutes before stopping to help dry off any moisture on the engine.
1. Move throttle control to STOP position.
2. Remove the ignition key (Do not turn key) to prevent unauthorized use of equipment.
3. Wipe all snow and moisture from the area around the engine as well as the area in and around the drive control and auger control. Also, engage and release both controls several times.
NOTE: Keep the key in a safe place. The engine cannot start without the ignition key.
To Engage Drive
1. With the engine running near top speed, move shift lever to one of six FORWARD positions or two REVERSE positions. Select a speed appropriate for the snow conditions that exist.
NOTE: Use slower speeds in higher snow and/or until you are familiar with the snow thrower operation.
2. Squeeze drive control against the right handle and the snow thrower will move. Release it and the drive motion will stop.
IMPORTANT: NEVER move the shift lever without first releasing the wheel drive control. Doing so will cause premature wear on the drive system’s friction wheel.
3. To turn the unit left or right, squeeze the respective wheel steering control. See Figure 4-1.
To Engage Augers
1. To engage augers and start snow throwing, squeeze the left hand auger control against the left handle. Release to stop augers.
2. While the auger control is engaged, squeeze the drive control to move, release to stop. Do not shift speeds while the drive is engaged.
NOTE: This same lever also locks auger control so you can turn the chute control without interrupting the snow throwing process.
3. Release the auger control; the interlock mechanism should keep the auger control engaged until the drive control is released.
4. Release the drive control to stop both the augers and the wheel drive. To stop the auger, both levers must be released.
Operating Tips
NOTE: Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes. The engine will not develop full power until it reaches operating temperature.
WARNING: The temperature of the muffler and the surrounding areas may exceed 150° F. Avoid these areas.
• If possible, remove snow immediately after it falls.
• Discharge snow downwind whenever possible.
• Slightly overlap each previous path.
• Set the skid shoes 1/4” below the shave plate for normal usage. Adjust them upward for hard-packed snow and downward when using on gravel or crushed rock.
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:
1. Release both the Auger Control and the Drive Control.
2. Stop the engine by removing the ignition key.
3. Remove the clean-out tool from the clip which secures it to the rear of the auger housing. See Figure 4-1.

Off-Season
Storage
WARNING
Never store snow thrower with fuel in tank indoors or in poorly ventilated areas, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas appliance.
Fuel left in engine during warm weather deteriorates and will cause serious starting problems.
Preparing Engine
NOTE: Refer to the engine manual for more detailed information on preparing the snow thrower engine for storage.
Short-Term Storage
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts of the engine such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during short-term storage (15-30 days). To prevent this, treat the fuel system using a fuel stabilizer.
Fuel stabilizer (such as STA-BIL™ or ULTRA-FRESH™) is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor.
WARNING: Never store snow thrower with fuel in tank indoors or in poorly ventilated areas, where fuel fumes may
reach an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or gas appliance.
CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or 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.
Preparing Snow Thrower
• When storing the snow thrower in an unventilated or metal storage shed, care should be taken to rustproof the equipment. Using a light oil or silicone, coat the equipment, especially any chains, springs, bearings and cables.
• Remove all dirt from exterior of engine and equipment.
• Follow lubrication recommendations.
• Store equipment in a clean, dry area.
Never use engine or carbu­retor cleaning products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
Long-Term Storage
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage for 30 days or longer.
WARNING: Fuel left in engine during warm weather deteriorates and will cause serious starting problems.
1. Run the engine until the fuel tank is empty and it stops due to lack of fuel. Do not attempt to pour fuel from the engine.
WARNING: Never use engine or carbu­retor cleaning products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
2. Remove the spark plug and pour one (1) ounce of engine oil through the spark plug hole into the cylinder. Cover spark plug hole with a rag and crank the engine several times to distribute the oil. Replace spark plug.

You assume the risk and liability for loss, damage, or injury to you and your property and/or to others and their property arising out of the misuse or inability to use the product.
This limited warranty shall not extend to anyone other than the original purchaser or to the person for whom it was purchased as a gift.
HOW STATE LAW RELATES TO THIS WARRANTY: This limited war­ranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary in different jurisdictions.
