GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ig-
nite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never mod-
ify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex-
tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is un-
avoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a respira-
tory mask, non-skid safety shoes and hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce the risk of
personal injury.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

background
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained us-
ers.
5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s opera-
tion. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situa-
tion.
8. Use clamps to secure your workpiece to a stable
surface. Holding a workpiece by hand or using your
body to support it may lead to loss of control.
9. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
SERVICE
1. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,

DANGER! CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a snow blower indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Snow blower exhaust contains carbon monoxide
(CO). This is a poison gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the snow blower exhaust, you are breathing
CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER use a snow blower inside homes, garages, crawl spaces, or other partially enclosed areas. Deadly levels
of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT supply
enough fresh air. ONLY use a snow blower outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents. These openings
can pull in snow blower exhaust.
Even if you use a snow blower correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-
backup CO alarm in the home. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the snow blower has been running,
move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION. HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: This snow blower may emit highly flammable and
explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death, if ignited. A nearby open flame can lead
to explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.
Do not operate near open flame, heat, or any other ignition source. Do not smoke near the snow blower.
Always operate on a firm, level surface.
Always turn snow blower off before refueling. Allow the snow blower to cool for at least 2 minutes before
removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
Do not overfill fuel tank. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank. Allow for
expansion. Always check for spilled fuel before operating.
If fuel spills, move the snow blower at least 30 feet away from the spill and wipe clean any spilled fuel before
starting the engine.
Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the snow blower.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: This product contains chemicals and produces exhaust known
to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm.

GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An un-
dersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the
correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier cord. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord. NOTE: "Amperage" below refers to the current that the starter motor draws.
1. Examine extension cord before use. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
2. Do not abuse extension cord. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by pulling
on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension
cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
3. Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire and should be
protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in
the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running
at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
TIP: WEN offers 12-gauge, outdoor-rated, grounded three-wire extension cords in 50-foot and 100-foot lengths
(Model PC1123, PC5012), available for purchase at wenproducts.com.

The following section describes the necessary steps to prepare the snow blower for use. If you are unsure about
how to perform any of the steps please call 1-847-429-9263 (M-F 8-5 CST) for customer service. Failure to perform
these steps properly can damage the snow blower or shorten its life.
STEP 1 - ADD / CHECK OIL
The user must add the proper amount of oil before operating the snow blower for the first time. The oil capacity of
the engine crankcase is 16.9 fl. oz (0.5 L).
CAUTION! Keep the snow blower level. Tilting the snow
blower to assist in filling will cause oil to flow into the
wrong areas of the engine and cause damage.
SNOW BLOWER PREPARATION
Fig. 10
30W Engine Oil
Temperatures above 40°F.
10W-30 Engine Oil
Temperatures between 0°F - 40°F.
Synthetic 5W-30 Engine Oil
All temperature ranges.
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS - Select good quality detergent oil bearing the American Petroleum Insti-
tute (API) service classifications SJ, SL, or SM (synthetic oils may be used). Select the SAE viscosity grade
of oil that matches the expected operating temperature. For general use (above 40° F), we recommend using
30W engine oil.
To add oil:
1. Place the snow blower on a level surface. Make sure the
engine is off before adding or checking oil.
2. Unscrew the oil dipstick (Fig. 11 - 1) from the engine.
3. Using an oil funnel or appropriate dispenser, slowly add
oil into the oil fill, being careful not to overfill the unit. Use
the dipstick to check the oil level as you fill the tank. The oil
should reach the section between the upper (H) and lower
(L) level. Reinstall the oil dipstick and firmly tighten it. Wipe
clean any spilled oil.
To check oil level (before every subsequent start):
1. Place the snow blower on a level surface. Make sure the
engine is off before adding or checking oil.
2. Remove and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag.
3. Insert the dipstick into the oil fill without screwing it in.
Remove the dipstick to check the oil mark.
4. If the oil mark does not reach the section between the
upper (H) and lower (L) mark on the dipstick, slowly add
oil until the oil mark reaches this section.
CAUTION! For subsequent operation, the oil level
should be checked before each use, or after every
8 hours of operation. Follow the instructions on
this page to check the oil level.
TIP: Your WEN snow blower is compatible with
the WEN 55201 Magnetic Oil Dipstick (not in-
cluded), available for purchase at wenproducts.
com. The dipstick’s industrial-strength magnetic
tip will collect metal shavings from your snow
blower’s oil tank to help preserve the engine and
extend your snow blower’s lifespan.

WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSION. HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: This snow blower may emit highly flammable and
explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death, if ignited. A nearby open flame can lead
to explosion even if not directly in contact with gasoline.
Do not operate near open flame, heat, or any other ignition source. Do not smoke near the snow blower.
Always operate on a firm, level surface.
Always turn the snow blower off before refueling. Allow the snow blower to cool for at least 2 minutes before
removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.
Do not overfill fuel tank. Gasoline may expand during operation. Do not fill to the top of the tank. Allow for
expansion. Always check for spilled fuel before operating.
If fuel spills, move the snow blower at least 30 feet away from the spill and wipe clean any spilled fuel before
starting the engine.
Empty fuel tank before storing or transporting the snow blower.
IMPORTANT:
Avoid getting dirt or water into the fuel tank.
Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat, and other sources of ignition.
Gasoline can age in the tank and make starting
difficult. Never store the snow blower for more
than 2 months with fuel in the tank.
Never use an oil/gasoline mixture.
Never use old gasoline.
NOTE: Do not fill the fuel tank to the very top. If you do
so, gasoline will expand and spill during use, even with
the fuel cap in place.
To check gas level (before every subsequent start):
1. Before starting the snow blower, check to see if there is
sufficient fuel inside the tank.
2. If the tank is empty or low, add gasoline to the gas tank.
See above section, "To add gasoline".
SNOW BLOWER PREPARATION
STEP 2 - ADD / CHECK FUEL
ONLY use fresh (within 30 days from purchase), lead-free
gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane rating. The snow
blower performs best with ethanol-free gasoline. DO NOT
use gasoline with over 10% ethanol.
The capacity of the fuel tank is 0.6 gallons (2.3 L). Do not
mix oil with gasoline.
To add gasoline:
1. Place the snow blower on a level surface. Make sure the
engine is off before adding or checking the fuel.
2. Unscrew the fuel cap (Fig. 12 - 1) and set it aside. The
fuel cap may be tight and hard to unscrew.
3. Slowly add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Be careful
not to overfill. Reinstall fuel cap and wipe clean any spilled
gasoline with a dry cloth.

SNOW BLOWER PREPARATION
STEP 3 - ADJUST THE CHUTE &
DEFLECTOR PLATE
The direction in which snow is ejected is controlled by the
chute rotator handle (Fig. 13 - 1). Turn the chute rotator
handle to adjust the position of the chute (Fig. 13 - 2).
The angle at which snow is ejected (and therefore how far it
is ejected) is controlled by the chute deflector plate (Fig. 14
- 1). Loosen the knob (Fig. 14 - 2) on the side of the deflec-
tor plate and adjust the plate’s position. Tighten the knob.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION ABOVE 3000 FEET
The fuel system on this snow blower may be affected by
operation at high altitudes. Proper operation can be ensured
by installing an altitude kit at altitudes higher than 3000 feet
above sea level. At elevations above 8000 feet, the engine
may experience a decrease in performance, even with the
proper altitude kit. Operating this snow blower without said
kit may increase the engine’s emissions and decrease both
fuel economy and performance.
You can order the kit at wenproducts.com by searching part
SB209E-HA. This kit should be installed by a qualified me-
chanic. Refer to the instructions included with your altitude
kit for more information about installation.
WARNING! To prevent serious injury from fire,
follow the kit installation procedures in a well-ventilated
area away from ignition sources. If the engine is hot
from use, shut the engine off and wait for it to cool
before proceeding. Do not smoke near the snow blower.
Warranty will be void if adjustments are not made for
high altitude use.
CAUTION! UNINSTALL the high altitude kit when
operating at altitudes below 3000 feet. Engines
with the high-altitude kit installed operated at
lower altitudes could cause severe engine dam-
age and affect emissions compliance.

DANGER: CARBON MONOXIDE
Using a snow blower indoors CAN KILL YOU IN MINUTES. Snow blower exhaust contains carbon monoxide
(CO). This is a poison gas you cannot see or smell. If you can smell the snow blower exhaust, you are breathing
CO. But even if you cannot smell the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
NEVER use a snow blower inside homes, garages, crawl spaces, or other partially enclosed areas. Deadly
levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors does NOT
supply enough fresh air. ONLY use a snow blower outside and far away from windows, doors, and vents. These
openings can pull in snow blower exhaust.
Even if you use a snow blower correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a battery-powered or battery-
backup CO alarm in the home. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the snow blower has been running,
move to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING: The exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
WARNING: Do not operate snow blower near open flame or flammable materials This snow blower may
emit highly flammable and explosive gasoline vapors, which can cause severe burns or even death if ignited. A
nearby open flame can lead to explosion even if it isn’t directly in contact with gasoline. Do not smoke near the
snow blower.

through and become familiarized with the following procedures of handling and adjusting your tool. Failure to
follow the safety instructions may result in serious personal injury.
OPERATION
NOTE: The auger blades are mounted to their shaft with shear pins that are designed to break if a foreign object
enters the auger housing. This is to prevent machine damage and operator or bystander injury. For information
on replacing the shear pins, see the “Replacing Shear Pins” section.
TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE SNOW BLOWING
Always run the engine at full throttle.
Adjust the drive speed to the situation at hand. Let the machine do the work.
It is easier and more efficient to remove snow immediately after it falls.
Throw snow downwind whenever possible.
Don’t use the snow blower early in the morning, if possible. You know how your neighbor Greg is about noise.
On flat surfaces (such as concrete, asphalt, etc.), adjust the skid plates so that the bottom of the scraper bar
runs along the ground.
On uneven surfaces (such as gravel, crushed rock, etc.) raise the scraper bar slightly above the top of the gravel
surface. Ensure that gravel and stones do not enter the auger housing, as they could cause injuries if they are
ejected.
Clear clogs immediately, see “Clearing Clogs” below.
If the auger or drive do not engage when the handle is squeezed, release it immediately and turn the engine OFF.
CLEARING CLOGS
A clearing tool is included with your snow blower.
1. Turn the engine OFF and wait for all moving parts (wheels, impeller, auger blades, etc.) to stop moving.
2. Use the clearing tool to clear the clog.
3. Replace the clearing tool in the clasp on the frame.
WARNING! NEVER use your hands to clear a clog! Only use the clearing tool.
4. Run the auger for a few seconds to clear out any remaining snow or ice.

void the warranty.
CAUTION! Let the muffler cool down completely before
performing spark plug maintenance.
DRAINING THE CARBURETOR
Drain the carburetor after every use and before
storing the snow blower (refer to the Recommended
Maintenance Schedule on page 28). Draining the
carburetor can help prevent build-up and blockages
caused by stagnant fuel inside of the carburetor.
1. Prepare an approved gasoline-storage container
under the carburetor to collect the drained fuel. Make
sure the fuel valve is turned OFF.
2. The carburetor can be accessed from the left side
of the snow blower, next to the cylinder head cover.
To drain the carburetor, open up the carburetor drain
screw with a Phillips-head screwdriver and drain out
any gasoline that has built up inside.
3. Once the fuel has drained, close the drain screw.

SPARK PLUG MAINTENANCE
Inspect and change the spark plug every 100 hours of op-
eration (refer to the Recommended Maintenance Schedule
chart). The spark plug is important for proper engine op-
eration. Check the spark plug regularly to maintain proper
engine operation. A good spark plug should be intact, free
of deposits, and properly gapped.
1. Gently pull on the spark plug boot (Fig. 23 - 1) to remove
it. Be careful not to tear insulation or wire.
2. Use a spark plug wrench or socket (not included) to un-
screw the spark plug from the engine. Remove the spark
plug from the engine.
MAINTENANCE
3. Visually inspect the spark plug. If it is cracked or chipped,
or if the electrodes are worn or burned, discard it and re-
place with a new spark plug. We recommend replacing it
with a Torch F6TC (NGK BP6ES) spark plug. These can be
purchased from wenproducts.com by searching part num-
ber 56310i-0104.
4. If re-using the spark plug, use a wire brush to clean any
dirt from around the spark plug base, then re-gap the spark
plug.
5. Measure the plug gap with a spark plug gap gauge. The
gap should be 0.7mm - 0.8mm (0.028 in. - 0.031 in.). Care-
fully adjust the gap if necessary (Fig. 24).
6. Screw the spark plug back into the spark plug hole using
the spark plug wrench. Do not over-tighten spark plug. Rec-
ommended tightening of the spark plug is ½ to ¾ of a turn
after the spark plug gasket contacts the spark plug hole, or
14.75 - 19.18 ft-lb (20 - 26 Nm).
7. Reinstall the spark plug boot over the spark plug.

STORAGE
WARNING! Avoid direct sunlight inside a vehicle. If the snow blower is left in an enclosed vehicle for many
hours, the high temperature could cause the fuel to vaporize and result in a possible explosion.
WARNING! Store the snow blower upright in a cool and dry location, away from sources of heat, open
flames, sparks or pilot lights.
Shut off the snow blower and allow the unit to cool to room temperature before storing it. NEVER place any type of
storage cover on the snow blower while it is still hot. Do not obstruct any ventilation openings.
Follow the procedures below for properly storing your snow blower. We highly recommend running your snow
blower once a month for 20 to 30 minutes, to ensure it is ready when you need it.
For Short Periods (30 to 60 Days):
Drain the carburetor. Refer to "Draining The Carburetor".
• Add fuel stabilizer: Follow the suggested portions and
instructions of your preferred stabilizer. Run the engine for 15 to
20 minutes, allowing the fuel stabilizer to mix with the gasoline
and circulate through the carburetor, and then top off with fuel.
Filling the fuel tank full reduces the amount of air in the tank and
helps fight deterioration of fuel.
For Extended Periods (Over 60 Days):
Drain the fuel tank and carburetor. Refer
to "Draining The Fuel Tank" and "Draining
The Carburetor".
Never store snow blower with fuel in the
tank for more than two months.
