Headlight

The headlight is on whenever the engine is running.

Shift Lever

The shift lever is located in the center of the handle
panel and is used to determine both ground speed and
direction of travel. It can be moved into any of eight
positions. See Figure 7.

Forward

Your snow thrower has six forward (F) speeds. Position
number one (1) is the slowest. Position number six (6)
is the fastest.

Reverse

Your snow thrower has two reverse (R) speeds. R1 is
the slower, while R2 is the faster of the two.

IMPORTANT:

Always release tractional control before

changing speeds.

Track Steering Controls

The left and right track steering controls are located on
the underside of the handles and are used to assist in
steering the snow thrower. Squeeze the right track
control when turning right, squeeze the left control
when turning left. Operate your snow thrower in open
areas until you become familiar with these controls.
See Figure 7.

NOTE: It is easier to maneuver a non-running snow
thrower with both track steering controls held in
simultaneously.

Throttle Control

The throttle control is located on the engine. It regulates
the speed of the engine and will shut off the engine
when pushed down completely. See Figure 7.

Safety Ignition Key

The safety ignition key must be fully inserted in the
switch before the unit will start. Remove the ignition key
when the snow thrower is not in use. See Figure 7.

IMPORTANT:

Do NOT attempt to turn the key.

Fuel Shut-off Valve

The fuel shut-off valve, located under the fuel tank,
controls fuel flow from the tank. Always make certain it
is in the Open (vertical) position before attempting to
start the engine. See Figure 7.

Track Lock Lever

The track lock lever is located on the right side of the
snow thrower and is used to select the position of the
auger housing and the method of track operation. Move
the lever to the right, then forward or backward to one of
the three positions. See Figure 8.

Transport:

Raises the front end of the snow thrower for

easy transport. Using proper caution, this position may
also be used on many gravel driveways to clear snow
while leaving gravel undisturbed.

Normal Snow:

Allows the tracks to be suspended

independently for continuous ground contact.

Packed Snow:

Locks the front end of the snow thrower

down to the ground for hard-packed or icy snow
conditions.
