and reduce tire pressure, if needed, to 10-15 psi.

any circumstance is 15 psi. Equal tire pressure
should be maintained at all times. Excessive

SkidShoe
The space between the shave plate and the ground can
be adjusted. For close snow removal, place skid shoes
in the low position. Use middle or high position when
area to be cleared is uneven.
NOTE: It is not recommended that you operate this
snow thrower on gravel as loose gravel can be easily
picked up and thrown by the auger causing personal
injury or damage to the snow thrower. If you are
compelled to operate the snow thrower on gravel, keep
the skid shoe in the highest position for maximum
clearance between the ground and the shave plate.
