its limitations
and
potential hazards.
Be
thoroughly
familiar
with
the
controls
and
their
proper
operation. Know
how
to
stop
the
machine and disengage
the
controls quickly.
Make sure
to
read
and
understand all the instructions
and
safety
precautions
as
outlined in
the
Engine Manufacturer's manual
packed separately
with
your unit. Do not attempt
to
operate the
machine until you fully understand how
to
properly operate
and
maintain the engine
and
how
to
avoid accidental injuries and/or
property
damage.
If
the unit
is
to
be
used
by someone other than original purchaser
or
loaned, rented,
or
sold, always provide this manual
and
any
needed safety training before operation. The user
can
prevent
and is responsible
for
accidents
or
injuries
that
may occur
to
themselves, other people,
and
property.
Do
not
force
the
machine. Use
the
correct
machine
for
your
application. The correct machine will do the job more efficiently
and
safer at the rate
it
was
designed.
PERSONAL
SAFETY
Do not permit children
to
operate this machine at any time.
Keep children, pets, and
other
people
not
using
the
unit
away
from the
work
area.
Be
alert
and
shut
off
unit
if
anyone enters
work
area.
Keep
children under the watchful care
of
a responsible
adult.
Do
not
operate the machine while under the influence
of
drugs,
alcohol,
or
any medication
that
could affect your ability
to
use
it
properly.
Dress properly. Wear heavy long pants, boots,
and
gloves. Do not
wear loose clothing, short pants,
or
jewelry
of
any kind. Secure
long hair
so
it
is above shoulder level. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away
from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry,
or
long hair
can
be
caught in moving parts.
Protect eyes, face, and head
from
objects
that
may
be
thrown
from the unit. Always wear safety goggles
or
safety
glasses
with
side shields when operating.
5 I Safety
Wear appropriate hearing protection.
Always keep hands
and
feet away from all moving parts during
operation. Moving parts
can
cut or crush body parts.
Always keep hands
and
feet away from all pinch points.
Do
not touch parts that might be hot from operation. Allow parts
to
cool
before attempting
to
maintain, adjust, or
service.
Stay alert, watch
what
you are doing, and use common sense
when operating the machine.
Do
not
overreach. Do
not
operate
the
machine while barefoot
or
when wearing sandals
or
similar lightweight footwear. Wear
protective
footwear
that
will
protect
your
feet
and improve
your
footing
on
slippery
surfaces. Keep
proper
footing
and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of
the machine in
unexpected situations.
INSPECT
YOUR
MACHINE
Check your machine before starting it.
Keep
guards in place
and
in
working
order. Make sure all nuts, bolts, etc., are securely
tightened.
Never operate the machine when
it
is
in need
of
repair
or
is in
poor mechanical condition. Replace damaged, missing,
or
failed
parts before using it. Check
for
fuel leaks. Keep the machine in
safe working condition.
Do not
use
the machine
if
the engine's switch
does
not turn
it
on
or
off. Any gasoline powered machine
that
can't
be
controlled
with
the engine switch
is
dangerous
and
must
be
replaced.
Regularly check
to
see
that
keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from the machine area before starting it. A wrench
or
a key
that
is
left attached
to
a rotating part
of
the machine may
result in personal injury.
Avoid accidental starting.
Be
sure the engine's switch
is
off
before
transporting
the
machine
or
performing
any maintenance
or
service on the unit. Transporting
or
performing maintenance
or
service on a machine with its switch on invites accidents.
If
the
machine should
start
to
vibrate
abnormally,
stop
the
engine (motor)
and
check immediately
for
the
cause.
Vibration
is
generally a warning sign
of
trouble.
ENGINE
SAFETY
This machine is equipped
with
an
internal combustion engine.
Do not
use
on
or
near any unimproved, forest covered,
or
brush
covered land unless the exhaust system
is
equipped
with
a spark
arrester meeting applicable local, state,
or
federal laws.
In
the
state
of
California, a spark
arrester
is required by law.
Other
states have similar laws. A spark arrester,
if
used,
must
be
maintained in effective working order by the operator.
Never
start
or
run the engine inside a closed area. The exhaust
fumes are dangerous, containing carbon monoxide,
an
odorless
and
deadly
gas.
Operate
this
unit
only
in a
well-ventilated
outdoor area.
Do
not
tamper
with
the engine
to
run
it
at
excessive
speeds.
The
maximum engine speed is preset by
the
manufacturer
and is
within safety limits.
See
engine manual.
Keep a Class B
fire
extinguisher on hand when operating
this
snow blower in
dry
areas
as
a precautionary measure.
FUEL
SAFETY
Fuel
is
highly flammable, and
its
vapors can explode
if
ignited.
Take
precautions when using
to
reduce
the
chance
of
serious
personal injury.
When
refilling
or
draining
the
fuel tank, use
an
approved fuel
storage container while in a clean, well-ventilated outdoor area.
Do
not
smoke,
or
allow sparks, open flames,
or
other
sources
of
ignition near
the
area
while
adding fuel
or
operating
the
unit.
Never fill the fuel tank indoors.
Two-Stage Snow Blower » Operator's Manual
Keep grounded conductive objects, such
as
tools, away
from
exposed, live electrical parts
and
connections
to
avoid sparking
or
arcing. These events could ignite fumes
or
vapors.
Always stop the engine
and
allow
it
to
cool before filling the fuel
tank. Never remove the cap
of
the fuel tank
or
add
fuel while the
engine
is
running
or
when the engine
is
hot. Do not operate the
machine
with
known leaks in the fuel system.
Loosen
the fuel tank
cap
slowly
to
relieve any pressure in the tank.
Never overfill
the
fuel tank. Fill the
tank
to
no more than
1/2"
below the bottom
of
the filler neck
to
provide space
for
expansion
as
the heat
of
the engine
can
cause
fuel
to
expand.
Replace
all
fuel tank
and
container
caps
securely
and
wipe up spilled
fuel. Never operate the unit without the fuel
cap
securely in
place.
Avoid creating a source
of
ignition
for
spilled fuel.
If
fuel
is
spilled,
do
not
attempt
to
start
the engine
but
move the machine away
from the area
of
spillage
and
avoid creating any source
of
ignition
until fuel vapors have dissipated.
When fuel
is
spilled on yourself
or
your clothes, wash
your
skin
and
change clothes immediately.
Store fuel in containers specifically designed and approved
for
this purpose.
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from sparks,
open flames,
or
other
sources
of
ignition.
Never
store
fuel
or
a machine
with
fuel
in
the
tank
inside a
building where fumes may reach a spark, open flame,
or
any
other
source
of
ignition, such
as
a
water
heater, furnace,
or
clothes
dryer. Allow the engine
to
cool before storing in any enclosure.
SPECIFIC
SAFETY
RULES
Do not operate
without
wearing adequate
winter
outer garments.
Do not
use
the machine
on
a roof.
Do
not
run the engine indoors, except when starting the engine
and
for
transporting the snow
thrower
in
or
out
of
the building.
Open
the outside doors; exhaust fumes are dangerous.
Always check overhead and side clearances
carefully
before
operation.
Always
be
aware
of
traffic
when
operating
along
streets
or
curbs.
Thoroughly inspect the area
to
be
worked. Keep the working area
clean
and
free
of
toys, doormats, newspapers, sleds, boards, wires
and
other
foreign objects, which could
be
tripped over
or
thrown
by the auger/impeller. Check
for
weak spots on docks, ramps
or
floors.
Plan
your
snow-throwing
pattern
to
avoid discharge
toward
people
or
areas where property damage
can
occur.
Do
not
operate
near
drop-offs,
ditches,
or
embankments.
Machine
can
suddenly
turn
over
if
a wheel
is
over the edge
of
a
cliff
or
ditch,
or
if
an
edge
caves
in.
Keep all bystanders, children, and pets
at
least 75
feet
(23m)
away.
If
you are approached, stop the
unit
immediately.
Use
a grounded three-wire extension cord
and
receptacle
for
all
machines
with
electric start engines.
Safety I 6
Check clutch
and
brake operation frequently. Adjust and service
as
required. All motion
of
drive wheels
and
auger/impeller must
stop quickly when control levers are released.
Let engine and machine adjust
to
outdoor
temperature before
starting
to
clear snow.
Stay alert
for
hidden hazards
or
traffic.
Do
not
overload machine capacity by attempting
to
clear snow at
too fast
of
a rate.
Do not
throw
snow any higher than necessary.
Adjust
auger housing
height
to
clear gravel
or
crushed
rock
surfaces. Exercise extreme caution when operating.
Exercise caution
to
avoid slipping
or
falling, especially
when
operating in reverse. Never operate machine
at
high
transport
speeds on slippery surfaces. Always look down
and
behind before
and while backing.
Do
not
operate on steep slopes. Do
not
clear snow across
the
face
of
slopes.
Keep
all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed
or
direction.
Use
a slow speed
to
avoid stops
or
shifts
on slopes. Avoid
starting
or
stopping
on a slope. Do
not
park machine on a slope unless absolutely
necessary. When parking on a slope, always block the wheels.
Disengage power
to
the auger/impeller when transporting
or
not
in
use.
Disengage all control levers
and
stop engine before you leave the
operating position (behind
the
handles).
Wait
until
the
auger/
impeller comes
to
a complete stop before unclogging the chute
assembly, making any adjustments,
or
inspections.
Hand
contact
with
the
rotating
impeller
inside
the
discharge
chute
is
the most common cause
of
injury
associated
with
snow
throwers. Do
not
unclog chute assembly while engine
is
running.
Shut
off
engine
and
remain behind handles until all moving parts
have stopped before unclogging. Never
put
your
hand in
the
discharge
or
collector openings. Always use the clean-out
tool
provided
to
unclog the discharge opening.
UNPACKING THE CONTAINER

SNOW BLOWING
TIPS
It
is
easier and more efficient
to
remove snow immediately after
it
falls.
Two-Stage Snow Blower » Operator's Manual
The best time
to
remove snow
is
the
early morning.
At
this time
the
snow
is
usually
dry
and
has
not
been exposed
to
the
direct sun
and warming temperatures.
Slightly overlap each successive path
to
ensure all snow will
be
removed.
For large areas,
start
in the middle and
throw
snow
to
each side,
so
snow
is
not
cleared more than once.
For extremely heavy snow, reduce the
width
of
snow removal by
overlapping previous path and moving slowly.
Throw
snow downwind whenever possible.
Keep engine clean and clear
of
snow during
use.
This will help air
flow
and extend engine life.
After
snow-throwing
is
completed, let the engine run
for
a
few
minutes
to
help
dry
off
the moisture on the engine and prevent
moving parts from freezing.
Engage
the auger/impeller
to
clear
any remaining snow from inside the housing. Rotate the discharge
chute
to
prevent
it
from
freezing. Stop the engine,
wait
for
all
moving parts
to
stop, and remove all ice and snow from the snow
thrower.
With
the engine off, pull the recoil starter handle several
times
to
prevent the recoil starter from freezing up.
TRAVELING
To
travel from one
work
area
to
another:
1.
Set
throttle
to
slow
or
part-throttle
position.
2.
Press down on handle bars enough
to
raise
front
of
unit
slightly
