NOTICE
Do not let grease or oil touch the rubber friction
wheel or the disc drive plate. If grease or oil touches the

WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable, which could
cause burns or fire that result in death or serious injury.
• When performing maintenance that requires the unit to
be tipped, the fuel tank must be empty or fuel can leak
out and result in a fire or explosion.
3. Lift the snowthrower up on the auger housing end.
Note: When you fill the crankcase with oil, do not let the
snowthrower stand on the auger housing for an extended
period of time.

the hex shaft (C, Figure 24). Do this before storage and at
the start of each season.
NOTICE
Do not let grease or oil touch the rubber friction
wheel or the disc drive plate. If grease or oil touches the
friction wheel, replace it. Do not attempt to clean it. If grease
or oil touches the disc drive plate, clean it fully with an
alcohol based solvent.
