General Safety WARNINGS!
You and any other operator of this snow thrower must read,
understand and follow these instructions in their entirety, and
should reread them at the start of each snow season. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in ELECTRIC SHOCK,
FIRE and/or serious PERSONAL INJURY.
Notice the personal safety alert symbol m used in this
manual to draw your attention to a WARNING given
along with the particular operating instruction. This
means that the operation requires special ATTENTION,
CAUTION and AWARENESS.
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered, dark areas
invite accidents.
2. Do not operate the snow thrower in an explosive
atmosphere, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Electrical appliances create sparks
that may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children, pets and bystanders away from the
work area. Be aware that the normal noise of the
machine when turned on may make it dicult for you to
hear approaching people. Spectators should wear safety
glasses and be kept a safe distance away from the work
area. Do not let spectators touch the snow thrower or the
extension cord.
4. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
grounded appliances. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
(i.e. upper and lower water pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerators, microwave ovens and outer frames of
heating equipment). Take necessary precautions to avoid
electric shock. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not abuse the cord. Keep the cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Never carry the snow
thrower by its cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from
the electrical outlet. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
7. Replace or properly repair damaged cords. If the cord
becomes damaged in any manner while plugged into the
wall receptacle, immediately pull the extension cord plug
from the receptacle.
8. Contact with water while operating the snow thrower
can result in electric shock and serious bodily injury.
Do not use the snow thrower in damp or wet locations or
expose to rain. Do not handle the plug or the appliance
with wet hands or while standing in water.
9. mWARNING! Use outdoor extension cords marked
SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJTW-A or
SJTOWA. These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
10.Turnothepowerswitchanddisconnectthepower
cable before making any adjustments to the unit and
before inspecting, servicing, changing accessories or
cleaning the snow thrower. Follow the same procedure
if any other dangerous conditions are present during
operation. Any adjustments to the unit should be

Electrical Safety
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
the snow thrower. Receptacles are available having
built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this
measure of safety.
2. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
Before use, check that the extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. For lengths less than 50 ft (15 m), a No.14 AWG
(or greater) extension cord should be used. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other).
Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA- or ETL-
rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use.
The appliance plug will t into a polarized extension
cord only one way.
If the appliance plug does not t fully into the extension
cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not t, obtain
a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension
cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. The
extension cord plug will t into the polarized wall outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the wall
outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not t,
contact a qualied electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not modify the appliance plug, extension cord
receptacle or extension cord plug in any way.
4. To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from the
extension cord during operation, make a knot with the two
cords as shown in Table 1.
5. Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the snow thrower by the
cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the receptacle.
Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

Moving the Machine and Plowing
the Snow
1. Keep the area of operation free of foreign objects that can
become thrown by the rotor blades. Perform a thorough
inspection of the area since some objects may be hidden
from view by surrounding snow. If the snow thrower hits an
obstruction or picks up a foreign object during use, stop
the snow thrower, disconnect the extension cord, remove
the obstruction and inspect the unit for damage. Repair or
replace any damaged part before restarting and operating
the unit.
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 thrower, use the wheels on one
side as the pivot point. Slightly tilt the snow thrower on
this pivot point to move it forward or backward.
4. Start your clearing path near the electrical outlet and work
outward, throwing snow in a back and forth motion. To
clear in the opposite direction, step over the cord and
pivot the snow thrower 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 onto
the just cleared path).
6. While moving the snow thrower, do not drag the power
cable violently or roughly. The snow thrower should move
within the range that the cable can safely reach.
7. Do not push the snow thrower with excessive force. You
should push the machine gently and evenly in accordance
with the unit’s throw rate.
8. Do not apply additional man-made load to the engine
since this may cause engine damage.
9. Some parts of the snow thrower may freeze under extreme
temperature conditions. Do not attempt to operate the
snow thrower with frozen parts. If the parts freeze while
the snow thrower is in use, stop the snow thrower, unplug
the extension cord and inspect for frozen parts. Free all
parts before restarting or operating the snow thrower.
Never force controls that have frozen.
10. 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 bar at
the base of the unit above the pebbles or gravel.
11. 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.
Changing Throw Direction and
Throw Height
m WARNING m
Foreign objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire,
or string, can be picked up and thrown by the snow
thrower, causing serious personal injury.
Remove all foreign objects from the area to be plowed
before operating the snow thrower.
