WARNING!

Read, understand, and follow all

instructions and warnings on the machine and in

this manual before operating.

Motor Control Lever

WARNING!

The motor control lever is a safety

device. Never attempt to bypass its operations.

The motor control lever is located on the upper handle. The motor

control lever engages and disengages the motor and auger.

Key

The key is a safety device. It must be fully inserted in order for the

motor to start. Remove the key when the snow thrower is not in use.

Chute Handle

Rotate the discharge chute left or right using the chute handle.

Strain Reliever

The strain reliever is located on the middle handle of the snow

thrower. The strain reliever reduces strain on the extension cord

so that it does not come unplugged during operation.

Auger

When engaged, the auger rotation draws snow into the auger

housing and throws it out the discharge chute. Rubber paddles

on the auger also aid in propelling the snow thrower as they

come in contact with the pavement.

Starter Button

The starter button is located on the upper handle of the snow

thrower. Engaging the motor control lever with the starter

button pressed will start the snow thrower.

Discharge Chute

The pitch of the discharge chute controls the angle at which the

snow is thrown. Loosen the wing knob on the side of the discharge

chute before pivoting the discharge chute upward or downward.

Retighten the knob once the desired position has been achieved.

Circuit Breaker Reset Button

The snow thrower is equipped with an circuit breaker reset

button, located on the motor control. This button may pop

out when too much strain is placed on the motor. Refer to the

Maintenance & Adjustments Section to reset this button.
