CHOKE BELOW
Activating the choke control closes the choke plate on carburetor and aids in starting
engine. The choke lever slides between the RUN
and CHOKE positions.
Primer
Pressing the primer, making sure to cover the vent hole
when pushing, forces fuel directly into the engine’s
carburetor to aid in cold-weather starting.
Recoil Starter Handle
The recoil starter handle is used to start the engine.
Gas Cap
Remove the gas cap to add fuel.
Key
The key is a safety device. It must be fully inserted in order for the
engine to start. Remove the key when the snow thrower is not in use.
NOTE: Do not turn the key in an attempt to start the engine.
Doing so may cause it to break.
Auger
When engaged, the auger rotation draws snow into the auger housing and throws
it out the discharge chute. Rubber paddles on the auger also aid in propelling the
snow thrower as they come in contact with the pavement.
