Connecting Extension Cord

NOTE: Do not plug your extension cord into the power source

receptacle (outlet) prior to routing it through the cord retainer

and connecting the extension cord to the snow thrower’s power

cable.
To properly route your extension cord through the strain reliever:
1.

Approximately 14 to 16 inches from its end, crease your

extension cord to form a tight loop.

2.

Push the loop through the bottom hole in the strain

reliever.

3.

Position the loop over the clips found on the strain reliever

and pull down until the cord fits snugly into the clip. See

Fig. 3-10.

NOTE: Use a UL-approved extension cord. A 100-foot,

14-gauge cord is recommended. A 50-foot, 16-gauge

cord is acceptable. Refer to the small chart found in Safe

Operation Practices.
NOTE: The strain reliever reduces strain on the extension

cord so that it does not come unplugged during operation.

4.

Plug the snow thrower power cable into the extension

cord. See Fig. 3-10.

5.

Install the chute in the auger housing with the handle

facing towards the rear of the snow thrower. See Fig. 3-8.

6.

Re-install the front cover with the four screws removed in

step 1. See Fig. 3-9.
