WARNING: Always disconnect the spark plug wire and place it where it cannot make contact with
spark plug to prevent accidental starting during: Preparation, Maintenance, or Storage of your
snowthrower.
Safe Operation Practices for Snowthrowers
As Recommended By: American National Standards Institute.
Engine Exhaust, some of its constituents, and
certain vehicle components contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING.
IMPORTANT: Safety standards require operator presence
controls to minimize the risk of injury. Your snowthrower is
equipped with such controls. Do not attempt to defeat the
function of the operator presence control under any circumstances.
Training
1. Read the operating and service instruction manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the
proper use of the equipment. Know how to stop the unit
and disengage the controls quickly.
2. Never allow children to operate the equipment. Never
allow adults to operate the equipment without proper
instruction.
3. Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, particularly small children and pets.
4. Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling especially
when operating in reverse.
Preparation
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to
be used and remove all doormats, sleds, boards, wires,
and other foreign objects.
2. Disengage all clutches before starting the engine
(motor).
3. Do not operate the equipment without wearing adequate
winter outer garments. Wear footwear that will improve

OPERATION
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 for over spectacles.
SNOWTHROWER OPERATION
The most effective use of the snowthrower will be established
by experience, taking into consideration the terrain, wind
conditions and building location which will determine the
direction of the discharge chute.
NOTE: Do not blow snow towards a building as hidden
objects could be blown with sufficient force to cause

If torque wrench is available, torque plug to 18-23 ft-lbs.
WARNING: Gasoline is flammable. Always use
caution when handling or storing gasoline. Do
not add gasoline to the fuel tank while snowthrower is running, hot, or when snowthrower is in an
enclosed area. Keep away from open flame, electrical
sparks and DO NOT SMOKE while filling the fuel tank.
Never fill the fuel tank completely; but fill the fuel tank
to within 1/4-1/2 inch (6.5-12.5 mm) from the top to provide space for the expansion of the 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 assure
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.

OPERATING TIPS
1. For optimum snowthrower efficiency, adjust ground
speed, not the throttle. REMEMBER - if the wheels slip,
forward speed will be reduced. The engine is designed
to deliver optimum performance at full throttle and must
be run at this power setting at all times.
2. Most efficient snowblowing is accomplished when snow
is removed immediately after it falls.
3. For complete snow removal, slightly overlap each swath
previously taken.
4. Snow should be discharged downwind whenever possible.
5. For normal usage, set the skids one-eighth inch (3 mm)
below the scraper bar. For extremely hard-packed snow
surfaces, the skids may be adjusted upward to insure
cleaning efficiency.
6. On gravel or crushed rock surfaces, the skids should be
set at 1-1/4 inch (32 mm) below the scraper bar (see To
Adjust Skid Height, in the MAINTENANCE section in this
manual). Rocks and gravel must not be picked up and
thrown by the machine.
7. After the snowblowing job has been completed, allow the
engine to idle for a few minutes, to melt snow and ice accumulated on the engine.
8. Remove ice and snow accumulation from the entire
snowthrower to prevent obstructions and possible damage when snowthrower is subsequently operated.
9. Before starting snowthrower, always inspect augers and
impeller for ice accumulation and/or debris, which could
result in snowthrower damage.
10. Check oil level before every start. fill to “SAFE” indication
prior to operating snowthrower.

should be checked at least once each season.
SNOWTHROWER
The following adjustment should be performed more than
once each season.
Auger and Traction Drive Belts should be adjusted after the
first 2 to 4 hours of use, again about mid-season and twice
each season thereafter (See To Adjust Belts paragraph in the
MAINTENANCE section).
AS REQUIRED
Auger Gear Box
The auger gear box is lubricated at the factory and should not
require additional lubrication.
If for some reason the lubricant should leak out, or if the auger
gear box has been serviced, add Lubriplate GR132 Grease
or “Deere Multi-Purpose Lithium Grease”. Maximum 3-1/4
ounces, (92 grams) should be used.
Remove filler plug D (Figure 20 and Figure 21), once a year.
If grease is visible, do not add. If grease is not visible, use a
piece of fine wire, like a dipstick to check if there is grease in
the gear box. Mobilux EP1 and Shell Aldania EP1 are
suitable equivalents.

AUGER HOUSING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
TO ADJUST SCRAPER BAR
After considerable use, the metal scraper bar will have a
definite wear pattern. The scraper bar in conjunction with the
skids should always be adjusted to allow one-eighth of an
inch (3 mm) between the scraper bar and the sidewalk or
area to be cleaned.
To adjust the scraper bar, proceed as follows:
1. Position the snowthrower on a level surface.
2. Loosen the carriage bolts and nuts securing the scraper
bar to the auger housing.
3. Adjust the scraper bar to the proper position. Tighten the
carriage bolts and nuts, insuring that the scraper bar is
parallel with the working surface.
4. For extended operation, the scraper bar may be reversed. If the scraper bar must be replaced because of
wear, remove the carriage bolts and nuts and install a
new scraper bar.
TO ADJUST SKID HEIGHT
This snowthrower is equipped with two height adjust skids,
secured to the outside of the auger housing. These elevate
the front of the snowthrower.
When removing snow from a hard surface area such as a
paved driveway or walk, adjust the skids up to bring the front
of the snowthrower down.
When removing snow from rock or uneven construction,
raise the front of the snowthrower by moving the skids down.
This will help to prevent rocks and other debris from being
picked up and thrown by the augers.
To adjust skids, proceed as follows:
1. Place a block (equal to height from ground desired) under scraper bar near but not under skid.
2. Loosen skid mounting nuts (Figure 25) and push the skid
down until it touches the ground. Retighten mounting
nuts.
3. Set skid on other side at same height.
NOTE: Make sure that snowthrower is set at same height
on both sides.
WARNING: Be certain to maintain proper
ground clearance for your particular area to be
cleared. Objects such as gravel, rocks or other
debris, if struck by the impeller, may be thrown with
sufficient force to cause personal injury, property damage or damage to the snowthrower.

HOW TO CHECK AND ADJUST THE CABLES
The cables are adjusted at the factory and no adjustment
should be necessary. If the cables have become stretched
or are sagging adjustment will be necessary.
Whenever belts are adjusted or replaced, the cables will
need to be adjusted.
To check for correct adjustment, unhook “Z” fitting at
clutch lever
1. Move clutch lever to the full forward position (just contacting plastic bumper). Holding cable tight, note position of fitting to hole in clutch lever.
2. The center of the “Z” fitting should be between the centre
and top of the hole in the clutch lever. Adjust either the
auger drive cable or the traction drive cable as follows.
(see Figure 39)

MAINTENANCE
AUGER SHEAR BOLT REPLACEMENT
The augers are secured to the auger shaft with special bolts
that are designed to break if an object becomes lodged in the
auger housing. Use of a harder bolt will reduce the protection
provided by the shear bolt. To replace a broken shear bolt,
proceed as follows:
WARNING: To insure safety and performance
levels, only original replacement shear bolts
should be used.
1. Move throttle to STOP, disengage all controls, disconnect the spark plug lead wire, and insure all moving parts
have stopped.
2. Lubricate the auger shaft zerk fittings (see Lubrication
Points in the Maintenance section of this manual).
3. Align the hole in the auger with the hole in the auger shaft.
Install new shear bolt and locknut provided. (See
Figure 41 )

SPARK PLUG
Check the spark plug every twenty-five (25) hours. Re-
place the spark plug if the electrodes are pitted or burned
or if the porcelain is cracked.
1. Clean spark plug and reset gap periodically.
2. Clean area around spark plug base before removal, to
prevent dirt from entering engine.
3. Replace spark plug if electrodes are pitted or burned or
if porcelain is cracked.
4. Clean spark plug by carefully scraping electrodes (do not
sandblast or use wire brush).
5. Be sure spark plug is clean and free of foreign material.
Check electrodes gap with a wire feeler gauge and reset
gap to 0.030” (0.76 mm) if necessary. If a new spark plug
is needed, refer to Engine Repair Parts section of this
manual for proper replacement spark plug.
6. Before installing spark plug, coat threads lightly with
graphite grease to insure easy removal.
7. Tighten plug firmly into engine. If torque wrench is available, torque plug to 18-23 ft-lbs.

STORAGE
OFF SEASON STORAGE
WARNING: Never store the engine, with fuel in
the tank, indoors or in a poor ventilated enclo-
sure where fuel fumes could reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace, water heater,
clothes dryer, etc.
Handle gasoline carefully. It is highly flammable and
careless use could result In serious fire damage to your
person and /or property.
Drain fuel into approved containers outdoors, away
from open flame.
If the snowthrower is to be stored for thirty (30) days or more
at the end of the snow season, the following steps are
recommended to prepare your snowthrower for storage.
NOTE: Gasoline must be removed or treated to prevent
gum deposits from forming in the tank, filter, hose, and
carburetor during storage.
1. To remove gasoline, run engine until tank is empty and
engine stops.
If you do not want to remove the gasoline, add fuel stabilizer
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 INSTRUCTIONS ON STABILIZER
CONTAINER. THEN RUN ENGINE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES
AFTER STABILIZER IS ADDED TO ALLOW MIXTURE TO
REACH CARBURETOR. STORE SNOWTHROWER IN
SAFE PLACE.
2. You can help keep your engine (4-cycles only) in good
operating condition by changing oil before storage.
3. Lubricating the piston/cylinder area. This can be done by
first removing the spark plug and squirting clean engine
oil into the spark plug hole. Then cover the spark plug
hole with a rag to absorb oil spray. Next, rotate the engine
by pulling the starter two or three times. Finally, reinstall
spark plug and attach spark plug wire.
5. Lubricate all lubrication points (see “Lubrication“ in the
Maintenance section).
6. Insure that all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fastened. Inspect all visible moving parts for damage,
breakage, and wear. Replace if necessary.
7. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly
before painting.
8. Cover the bare metal parts of the blower housing auger,
and the impeller with rust preventative.
9. If possible, store your snowthrower indoors and cover it
to give protection from dust and dirt.
10. On models with folding handles, loosen the fasteners
that secure the upper handle. Rotate the upper handle
back.
11. If the machine must be stored outdoors, block up the snowthrower and insure the entire machine is off the
ground. Cover the snowthrower with a heavy tarpaulin.
REMOVING THE SNOWTHROWER FROM
STORAGE
When removing the snowthrower from storage, follow the
steps below.
1. Put the upper handle in the operating position, tighten the
knobs that secure the upper handle.
2. Fill the fuel tank with a fresh fuel.
3. Check the spark plug. Make sure the gap is correct. If the
spark plug is worn or damaged, replace before using.
4. Make sure all fasteners are tight.
5. Make sure all guards, shields, and covers are in place.
4. Thoroughly clean the snowthrower.
