2. Keep children, pets, and bystanders away from the area of
operation. Be aware that the normal noise of the machine
when turned on may make it dicult for you to hear
approaching people.
3. When moving the snow blower, use the wheels on one
side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the snow blower on this
pivot point to move it forward or backward.
4. Start your clearing path outward, throwing snow in a back
and forth motion. To clear in the opposite direction, pivot
the snow blower on its wheels. Make sure to overlap
clearing paths.
5. Note the wind direction. If possible, move in the same
direction as the wind so that the snow is not thrown
against the wind (and thus back into your face and on the
just cleared path).
6. Do not push the snow blower with excessive force. You
should push the machine gently and evenly in accordance
with the unit’s throw rate.
7. Do not apply additional man-made load to the motor since
this may cause motor damage.
8. Some parts of the snow blower may freeze under extreme
temperature conditions. Do not attempt to operate the
snow blower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while
the snow blower is in use, stop the snow blower, remove
the batteries, and inspect for frozen parts. Free all parts
before restarting or operating the snow blower. Never
force controls that have frozen.
9. When working on pebbles, gravel, or unpaved surfaces,
avoid throwing loose surface material along with the snow
by pushing down on the handle to raise the scraper at the
base of the unit above the pebbles or gravel.
10. For larger areas, a denite pattern of operation is required
to thoroughly clean an area of snow. These patterns will
not only avoid throwing snow in unwanted places, but will
also eliminate the need for a second removal of snow
(Fig. 12).
Pattern A: Throw the snow to the right of left side
where possible. For areas such as a long driveway, it is
advantageous to start in the middle. Plow from one end to
the other, throwing snow to both sides.
Pattern B: If the snow can only be thrown to one side of
the area to be cleared, start on the opposite side.

1. The discharge chute can be controlled 180 degrees. To
adjust the discharge chute direction, grab the auxiliary

m WARNING m
Never direct the snow discharge chute at the
operator, at bystanders, at vehicles, or at nearby
windows. The discharged snow and foreign objects
accidentally picked up by the snow blower can
cause serious damage and personal injury.
Always orient the discharge chute in the opposite
direction from where you, bystanders, surrounding
vehicles, or windows are located.
