RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
8. Take all possible precautions when leaving the snow
blower unattended. Disengage the auger/impeller, shift

engine and for transporting the snow blower in or out of
the building. Ensure the outside doors are open; exhaust
fumes are dangerous.

treme caution when changing direction on slopes. Do not
attempt to clear steep slopes.
