4. Plug the extension cord into a wall outlet.

foreign objects which the rotor blades may pick up and
throw. Such items could be covered by snowfall and
remain unnoticed.
Starting and Stopping
1. To start the electric snow shovel, push the safety button
on the top of the handle grip and squeeze the trigger. You
can now release the safety button. To stop the product,
release the trigger (Fig. 10).
Operating Tips
• Start the electric snow shovel and tilt it forward until the
scraper blade contacts the ground. Push the shovel forward
at a comfortable rate of speed, yet slow enough to clear
the path completely. The width and depth of the snow
determines your forward speed.
• Direct the snow to the right or to the left by holding the
electric snow shovel at a slight angle.
• For the most efficient snow removal, throw the snow
downwind, and slightly overlap each swath.
• If you need to clear snow from crushed rock or gravel,
push down on the handle to raise the scraper clear of loose
material that the rotor blades could throw.
• The electric snow shovel can remove snow up to 4-IN
(10.2 cm) deep in one pass.
• When clearing deeper drifts, hold the electric snow shovel
by the upper and lower handles and use a swinging or
sweeping motion. Remove a maximum of 13-IN (33 cm)
width with each pass and repeat as many times as required.
• Keep the cord clear of obstructions, sharp objects, and
rotor. Do not pull sharply on the cord or abuse it in any
manner. Frequently inspect the cord for damage. If it is
damaged, replace the cord.
• Disconnect the extension cord after using the electric snow
shovel. Hang the extension cord with the shovel so it will not
be misplaced or damaged.
